Graphic Kick the Habit: A... The carbon cycle

The carbon cycle

The figures indicate carbon storage and flows, expressed in Gigatonnes (1 000 million tonnes) of carbon. The arrows are proportionate to the volume of carbon. The figures for the flows express amounts exchanged annually.

Year: 2009

From collection: Kick the Habit: A UN Guide to Climate Neutrality

Cartographer: GRID-Arendal
