Carbon

What is Carbon you might say? Well, it is a chemical element much like oxygen or hydrogen. It is most commonly know in the shape of diamonds or granite and is abundant. Greenhouse gases such as CO2 contain carbon molecules. Carbon dioxide is the most greenhouse gas released by humans. Carbon only becomes carbon dioxide when each atom of carbon joins with two atoms of oxygen. (http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-carbon.htm)
