List the major factors that affect atmospheric CO2on long geological time scales. Draw a simple box model of the influences on atmospheric CO2, showing the major reservoirs and fluxes. The model does not need to be quantitative.

Carbon dioxide or CO2 is one of the main greenhouse gases that accelerates global warming.

A greenhouse is a place where a particularly cold or hot climate is maintained.

Scientifics use this analogy with gases like CO2 because what they generate is a coat that keeps the sun's rays inside the oxygen layer, so these rays enter and heat the earth, unable to escape.

Industrial factories and cars are the largest carbon emitters. It all started in the Industrial Revolution
