Carbon on the Move

In this activity, you will play the role of carbon atoms moving through the sources and sinks of the Carbon cycle.

You need one of the following to help you in your journey- a 6-sided dice (real or app), or 6 pieces of paper labeled 1-6 and able to be drawn at random.

For each station/turn: Record where you are at the start of a turn. Then, roll your dice/draw your number. Write down which process you went through(determined by number). Then record which location you then went to. You may find yourself in the same location more than once!

To start- pick a location within the Carbon cycle
