Earth has played a version of this game with blocks of carbon

What's the connection to climate?Well, when that carbon dioxide is in the air,waiting to be reabsorbed,it traps a portion of the sun's heat,which would otherwise escape to space.Earth has played a version of this game with blocks of carbon.It creates a blanket of warmth,known as the greenhouse effect,that keeps our Earth from freezing like Mars.The more carbon dioxide blocks hang out in the atmosphere waiting to be cleared,the warmer Earth becomes.
