The Carbon Cycle
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
We affect the earth's regular carbon cycle by burning fossil fuels. Coal and oil combustion adds billions of tons of carbon to the atmosphere, carbon that has been stored underground for millions of years.
Carbon moves through the carbon cycle in all processes, except for the burning of fossil fuels. Fossil fuel burning releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, which disrupts the natural carbon cycle by increasing the concentration of CO2, a greenhouse gas, in the atmosphere.
Men return this to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. The problem here is that the release is triggering global warming.
Igneous rock is formed through the rock cycle. The igneous rock is formed by magma and lava,then it goes through volcanic activity.

the burning of fossil fuels
No, the burning of fossil fuels affects the carbon cycle, but not the water cycle.
Yes, both add CO2 to our atmosphere
The carbon cycle, because the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases carbon dioxide (CO2).

Burning fossil fuel.
By burning the fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are natural fuels such as coal or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms.
We affect the earth's regular carbon cycle by burning fossil fuels. Coal and oil combustion adds billions of tons of carbon to the atmosphere, carbon that has been stored underground for millions of years.
No.Human activity (burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity) is having a serious effect on the carbon cycle, by adding extra carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.Human activity (pollution, overuse) is having a serious effect on the water cycle and the amount of fresh water available to our communities.
