How Carbon is created

1. Where does carbon dioxide
come from?
I’m not sure.
Let’s look at these pictures
to find out.

2. Power stations burn coal, oil or gas to
make electricity.
This makes carbon dioxide.

Example 2 of 3
People are responsible for a lot of
carbon dioxide.
Where does it come from?

6. People are responsible for a lot of
carbon dioxide.
Where does it come from?
Excellent.
Cars, lorries and buses
run on petrol or diesel.
They all produce carbon
dioxide.
Can you find any other
source of carbon
dioxide?

carbon dioxide.
Where does it come from?
Yes.
Heating houses and using
electricity produces carbon dioxide.

electricity. This causes crbon dioxide.
Where does it come from?
That was too easy.
Remember though,you
can’t see the carbon
dioxide.
The white clouds you can
see is steam. It is also
made when oil or gas
burns.
It was a cold day. The
steam condensed into the
white clouds.

Think about the things you do that produce
carbon dioxide.
