Carbon is being locked up in carbonates on the ocean floors faster than it is being released from the earth by volcanic activity. This has been the case, with intermittent exceptions, since the end of Carboniferous times. Atmospheric carbon dioxide has
declined since then. At the peak of the most recent glacial it nearly reached the low point of 150 parts per million in the atmosphere at which point the die
off of all life on earth would have commenced. In the long term the survival of life on this
planet will depend on mankind or some smarter organism being able and willing to convert carbonates back into carbon dioxide.
