THE EARTH
  1. CARBON CYCLE
    1. plants take carbon dioxide out of the air by photosynthesis
      1. when plants are eaten by animals the carbon in the plants gsoe into the animal
        1. when plans and animals respire carbon in the goes into the animal
          1. dead organisms and waste are broken down by decomposres
            1. decomposers respire and release carbon dioxide back into the air
              1. the combustion of fossil fuels also release carbon dioxide into the air
              2. RECYCLING
                1. Limited Resources
                  1. Energy from fossil fuels (coal and natural gas)
                    1. Saves money
                      1. Recycling uses less energy so fewer fossil fuels are burnt
                        1. Makes less rubbish
                          1. Plastic from crude oil
                            1. metal from metal ores (rocks) in the earth crust
                            2. CLIMATE CHANGE
                              1. The rise in average global temperature
                                1. Ice melting
                                  1. flooding
                                    1. warmer winters
                                      1. Extreme weather
                                        1. sea levels rising
                                        2. THE ATMOSPHERE
                                          1. Gases that surround planets
                                            1. CO2 rising down to humans acttivity
                                              1. 78% nitrgoren
