In a fair society, the solution to unemployment is not to force people into workfare programmes which do little more than supply big companies with free labour. It's to create jobs that pay a living wage, for example, by investing in new sustainable infrastructure projects and boosting the jobs-rich low carbon economy.

British Politician

Ned Lamont

We have to reenergize our economy so it works for all Americans; invest in our schools so that all our children have the tools they need to compete and succeed in life; rebuild and enhance our infrastructure; and we must reduce carbon pollution and reverse climate change.

American Politician

Frances Beinecke

Though every nation must do its part to address climate change, developed nations are responsible for the lion's share of carbon pollution in the atmosphere, and they have an obligation to help developing nations transition to a sustainable future.

American Activist

Sharice Davids

I agree with the overwhelming majority of scientists who recognize that climate change is real, and it's essential that our country honors its commitment to work with the rest of the world to cut carbon pollution and address this crisis together.

Keala Settle

As you get older, whatever your struggles may be - how you sound, how you look, how you dress - you grow into yourself a little bit more. You end up realizing the world wants you and not a carbon copy of six other people.

American Actress

Greta Thunburg

By stopping flying, you don't only reduce your own carbon footprint but also that sends a signal to other people around you that the climate crisis is a real thing and that helps push a political movement.

Swedish Environmentalist

Jacob Bronowski

You will die but the carbon will not; its career does not end with you. It will return to the soil, and there a plant may take it up again in time, sending it once more on a cycle of plant and animal life.

English Scientist

James Jeans

Life exists in the universe only because the carbon atom possesses certain exceptional properties.

English Physicist

Marcus Samuelsson

Going meatless reduces our carbon footprint and helps us lead the way towards climate change.

Ethiopian Chef

Sheldon Whitehouse

The worst blows to humanity from carbon pollution may come at us from the oceans.

Emphasize carbon's role in the biological makeup of living organisms.

Essential for Life

Note that carbon combines with other elements to form common substances like CO2.

Common Compounds

Understand that 'carbon' can mean a copy, referring to an older duplication technology.

Duplicate Meaning

Recognize 'carbon' in this context is less common due to digital technology replacing carbon paper.

Historical Usage

Relates to how our actions contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change.

Environmental Impact

Refers to an individual's or group's impact, suggesting a measure of accountability.

Personal Responsibility

Know that 'carbon' refers to fuels like coal used for energy, often linked with pollution.

Energy Source

Understand that using 'carbon' as fuel has environmental implications due to emissions.

Pollution Concerns

 by whichever measure -- PPP, market exchange rates -- the largest economy in the world over the course of the decade ahead. They're already the largest trading nation, already the largest exporting nation, already the largest manufacturing nation, and they're also the biggest emitters of carbon in the world.

Are China and the US...

 that might be happening deep beneath our feet. Fracking's biggest controversy, though, is happening above the ground. The general consensus is that burning natural gas is better for the environment than burning coal since the gas collected from fracking emits only half the carbon dioxide as coal

How does fracking work?...

 spiraling around the chain, and the bond between carbon and fluorine is incredibly tight. Like a couple that ignores everyone except each other, carbon and fluorine interact so strongly that the normal, intermolecular forces that help substances stick to each other don't stand a chance.

Why doesn’t anything...

 that repeatedly reuse and rebuild ingredients crafting as much as possible out of the planet's available resources. Such as that sugar, built using raw sunlight and carbon converted in plant factories to become the energy that powers you and keeps the cycles revolving in your own life.

Nature's smallest...

 and, most importantly, how good or how bad it is for you. Let's take a look at some of these differences. One is length. Fatty acids can be short or long. Another, more important difference is the type of bond between the carbon atoms. Some fatty acids have only single bonds.

What is fat? - George...

 in the three minutes that followed the birth of our universe. Eventually, clusters of atoms accumulated and formed stars. Within these stars, nuclear reactions fused light elements, such as hydrogen and helium, to form heavier elements, such as carbon and oxygen.

The law of conservation...

 question to you though I think a lot of people don't think there's a lot of logic to what you just said but you're an economist if carbon is a long term cost to the world what we don't I a lot

Economics of climate...

 like beryllium, carbon and oxygen in a process known as nucleosynthesis. When stars eventually collapsed and exploded into supernovas, these new elements were spread across the universe

Where did Earth’s water...

 and storing it in this enormous trunk this highlights the importance of the seasonal forest its trees are vital allies in the fight to control carbon in the atmosphere

What’s in the Trunk?...

 blink six seconds and six percent of our walk is through crops peat bugs are large stores of water and carbon and are home to special wetland wildlife
