00:00:00.010 --> 00:00:04.050
We know that on average for the global carbon system

2
00:00:04.070 --> 00:00:08.140
about half of what humans emit into the atmosphere is removed each year

3
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:09.880
by the land and the ocean.

4
00:00:09.900 --> 00:00:12.020
There's details we still don't know, like

5
00:00:12.040 --> 00:00:16.320
where that is happening? Different parts of the ocean taking up the carbon dioxide

6
00:00:16.340 --> 00:00:18.400
or is the land responding differently?

7
00:00:18.420 --> 00:00:21.480
But with the measurements collected from OCO-2,

8
00:00:21.500 --> 00:00:24.550
which are about 100,000 good measurements

9
00:00:24.570 --> 00:00:28.410
of carbon dioxide around the whole globe every day

10
00:00:28.430 --> 00:00:33.440
we can start to answer these questions about the wheres and the whens of the carbon dioxide removal.
