The carbon cycle is the process of how we reuse carbon in the earths ecosystem. There are many ways that carbon enters the carbon cycle here are a few, respiration and diffusion. Respiration is when animals release CO2 though breathing out. Diffusion is when CO2 enters through land, oceans, and atmosphere. Carbon is good because it keeps the green house gas here which is like a blanket over our earth (heat is still here). We also get fossil fuels from carbon after a long time of carbon being I the ground. One bad thing about carbon is that the earth is getting warmer because of the greenhouse gas effect. Things that will convert to fossil fuels include plats and animals if left in the ground with little oxygen for a long time. my own carbon I avoiding 491 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per year but the average American.
This is equivalent to the emissions from driving a car 524 miles.

carbon is in the air because of industry (burning fossil fuels in factorys)
