What brave people they are! They do these things because they care about the planet and about life. Biological Engine of our Living Planet Almost every living thing is made of carbon - it is the root of all life on Earth. But, how is it cycled through the biosphere? "The oceans regulate the planet's biological wellbeing, but water alone is not enough. Life in its most common forms demands a ready supply of a particular element if it is to thrive - and that element is carbon."
