Hello!

The part of the carbon cycle where humans had the greatest impact is the return of CO₂ to the atmosphere by burning of ancient organic matter.

The ancient organic matter is also called Fossil Fuels. Some Fossil Fuels are Petroleum and Coal. Fossil Fuels are used to power our society and are burned to provide energy for power plants and vehicles, and by burning them, Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is produced, increasing the natural concentration of this compound in the atmosphere.

Have a nice day!
