What comes to your mind when you here the word "climate change"? for me climate change is are about the weather in this world.
The biosphere is one of the most critical influences on the climate, yet it is also one of the most poorly understood. Our very long periods, the biosphere neither sequesters nor releases carbon to the atmosphere, but on shorter timescales it can function as a net source, through plants absorption of carbon dioxide, or a sink, through the respiration and decomposition of plants and the burning of wildfires. The biosphere has increasingly acted as a strong sink. Nonetheless this figure could change. If it goes dawn, more of our carbon emissions will stay in the atmosphere and climate change will worsen.
