Nitrogen is a fairly inert gas that has no harmful affects unless it is found in too high of quantities. This would cause oxygen deprivation. It would be a bad idea to enter a pure nitrogen environment.
Water carries nitrogen and carbon through the environment.
We get Nitrogen compounds into our bodies through protein food we eat. This Nitrogen is again released to the environment by excretion. Also after animals are dead the nitrogen is released to the environment by decaying.
Some forms of nitrogen and carbon are carried through the environment by plants and animals.

When an Animal Dies, and Decomposes Nitrogen is Released, where Bacteria and Plants begin there work, you may want to research the Nitrogen Cyclean animal returns nitrogen to the environment when it urinates or decompeses or dies or decays
Nitrogen enters the food web when plants absorb nitrogen compounds from the soil and convert them into proteins.
