In this video, a cargo ship called Santa Lachia is being used to collect data on carbon dioxide levels in the air and ocean. The team of environmental scientists aims to build a database to monitor climate change and understand how much...

In this video, Ashlyn Cousteau and a group of elementary school students demonstrate how to measure carbon dioxide levels using a sensor. They discuss the impact of carbon dioxide on climate change and how it is produced during the...

This video is a lecture presentation on the production of heat and carbon dioxide in respiration. The presenter explains the process of aerobic respiration, which is a chemical reaction between glucose and oxygen to produce carbon...

Carbon dioxide gets a lot of grief these days. It's the main cause of the global warming that's already damaging coral reefs, ice caps, and coastlines. But for eons, life survived on Earth because natural processes kept CO2 levels within...

Rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere are driving changes in Earth’s climate. But scientists are still trying to answer important questions about how carbon dioxide emissions get absorbed by the land and the ocean — and how...

Climate is the average type of weather that a region has. It is defined by temperature and moisture. Proximity to oceans and large mountain ranges defines climate too, depending upon the prevailing wind. While climates change over...

Plants play a key role in mitigating climate change. The more carbon dioxide they absorb during photosynthesis, the less carbon dioxide remains trapped in the atmosphere where it can cause temperatures to rise. But...

Can trees really save us from climate change? For eons, nature has relied on photosynthesis as a big way to keep carbon dioxide levels from getting out of control. But as we have put more carbon into the air, we’ve also cut down many of...

Rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere are driving changes in Earth’s climate. But scientists are still trying to answer important

questions about how carbon dioxide emissions get absorbed by the land and the ocean — and...

The world’s largest carbon capture plant has opened in Iceland and its manufacturers say it will capture 4,000 tons of carbon dioxide from the air per year.

The video is a lecture presentation on abiotic factors. It defines what abiotic factors are and how they can impact the number and type of organisms within a community. The presenter discusses different abiotic factors such as light...

Join the Amoeba Sisters in this longer review video as they review food chains, food webs, how energy flows through trophic levels (including the 10% rule), ecological relationships (including parasitism, mutualism, and commensalism),...

Learn how the enhanced greenhouse effect, driven by human activities, leads to global climate change. Delve into the role of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane in trapping more heat in the atmosphere, and discover the...

SciShow News explains an ominous record that Homo sapiens just broke: the highest levels of carbon dioxide emissions, the leading factor in global warming. Hank explains what it means, and what we can do.

Paul Andersen starts this video with a description of the respiratory surface. He explains how worms, insects, fish and mammals take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. He then tours the major organs of the respiratory system; from...

SciShow Space News tells you about NASA's latest launch -- the first mission dedicated to measuring carbon dioxide in the atmosphere -- and gives you a primer on what the June solstice really is!

You've probably heard that carbon dioxide is warming the Earth. But how exactly is it doing it? Lieven Scheire uses a rainbow, a light bulb and a bit of quantum physics to describe the science behind global warming.

Plants need nitrogen. Can they get enough to meet the increased levels of carbon dioxide?

You might never know it, but the seemingly quiet Harvard Forest in Massachusetts is actually hard at work. Like other forests, it's busy doing some serious global housekeeping, which is being monitored by scientists at Harvard...

An ultra-high-resolution NASA computer model has given scientists a stunning new look at how carbon dioxide in the atmosphere travels around the globe.



Plumes of carbon dioxide in the simulation swirl and shift as...

There have been 6 massive extinctions in our planet's history. The first, happened 440 million years ago when an Extreme temperature drops froze the oceans and killed 86% of early life on earth. Over the next 66 million years, the seas...

Pupil outcome: I can describe how greenhouse gases trap heat around Earth. Key learning points: - The atmosphere is a mixture of gases around Earth. - Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that makes up about 0.04% of the atmosphere and is...

With the dramatic increase of carbon dioxide’s levels in our atmosphere in the last century, which is one of the most significant causes of global warming, understanding carbon capture is one of the key focuses of science. Join Cristina...

This video explains the greenhouse effect, which is a natural process that warms the Earth's surface with the help of greenhouse gases. The video also explores the correlation between increased carbon dioxide levels and global warming,...
