The Calvin cycle refers to the chemical reactions that take place in a plant overnight. During this process, carbon dioxide molecules are bonded together with the electrons and hydrogens from NADPH to form glucose.

Carbon dioxide is relatively inert, pretty much nothing happens to it in the atmosphere. Actually, about 1% of it is absorbed by marine cyanobacteria or by trees in the process of photosynthesis, by which plants take up carbon and release diatomic oxygen (O2). Another small amount combines with atmospheric hydrogen to form carbonic acid, which when absorbed by raindrops slightly increases ocean acidity.

Most of the more than 40 billion tons humans release into the atmosphere each year simply accumulates there. Because CO2 is a heat trapping gas, this accumulation leads to a very gradual increase in earth's temperature.

In the Calvin cycle, carbon dioxide molecules (CO2) are combined with each other and with the electrons and H's from NADPH to form glucose (C6H12O6)
