In this episode climate modeller Chris Jones joins the regular podcast team to take us on a tour of the carbon cycle.We hear how carbon travels round the Earth system, where it comes from, and how it affects the climate and weather we experience.

We also hear about Chris’ new paper on “negative emissions” – how drawing down carbon from the atmosphere might help us combat climate change, and how the carbon cycle might go from being a help, to being a hindrance.The Met Office is the United Kingdom's national weather service.
