*[[En-en adult card 12 carbon sinks|Carbon sinks]] It can be argued that CO<sub>2</sub> emissions take place before reaching carbon sinks. But the opposite link has our preference. | |||
*[[En-en adult card 24 ocean acidification|Ocean acidification]] Players often identify CO<sub>2</sub> concentration as a cause for ocean acidification. But it is more logical to link back to carbon sinks. | |||

The surplus CO<sub>2</sub> is permanently stored in the atmosphere (no chemical degradation process). There are only 2 physical processes: dissolution of CO<sub>2</sub> in the oceans, and synthesis of CO<sub>2</sub> via photosynthesis (in the presence of photons). | The surplus CO<sub>2</sub> is permanently stored in the atmosphere (no chemical degradation process).
