Carbon

Found naturally in Earth’s atmosphere, carbon dioxide is a trace gas in Earth’s atmosphere. Human activities have contributed significantly to the rising concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution. In this episode, Empodera Clima (@emporadoraclima), a multilingual initiative, based in Brazil, that advocates for gender equality in climate action, with a Global South perspective, explains #Carbon and what this means in relation to Climate Justice.
