Carbon in the ocean is either permanently stored in its depths or constantly transferred between the atmosphere and the ocean's surface waters. Carbon is the basic foundation of all life on Earth. There is the same amount of carbon on Earth now as there has always been. Carbon creates essential components like DNA and protein when new life develops.
