How does exercise affect the amount of carbon released from the lungs?

Your body is an engine that uses fuel (food) to produce energy for you to do exercise. The fuel contains carbon from the carbohydrates you eat, and the body uses oxygen from the air to do a chemical reaction that combines the carbon with the oxygen to produce energy plus carbon dioxide.
If you do exercise, you use more fuel and more oxygen, and you produce more carbon dioxide. The body has sensors that detect excess carbon dioxide in the blood, and they make you breathe faster to get rid of it.

Why could the melting of permafrost cause a runaway greenhouse?
It is thought that a vast amount of carbon dioxide is held imprisoned within the permafrost. If the permafrost was to melt, the carbon dioxide released would add considerably to the greenhouse affect.

How does the amount of trees being cut down every year affect our carbon footprint?
Carbon footprint is usually used to refer to a single person (me), or a thing (this apple), or a family or household. It means the amount of carbon dioxide (or equivalent) released into the atmosphere by the activities, or existence of a peron, thing, or group.However, the amount of trees cut down every year affects the carbon footprint of the whole world. Trees (and all growing vegetation) remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. The oxygen is released and the carbon is stored in the wood of the trees.So when we cut down a tree we increaseour carbon footprint.
What decisions can you make about your environment to improve your health?
