Learning Materials for Lesson 22

Read the article Trends in the Sources and Sinks of Carbon Dioxide by C. Le Quere.

  • Note: Don’t be intimidated by this relatively technical paper.
  • Read the abstract and the first 2 paragraphs carefully.
  • Under “Fossil fuel”  make a note in paragraph 2 on the difference between production and consumption-based emissions.
  • Under each heading read for the main point of that section.
  • If there are parts that don’t make sense – read on and don’t worry too much.
  • You DO NOT need to read the methods (at the end).
