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.
