    Carbon Cycle Perturbation
    The combustion of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide ($\text{CO}2$), a long-lived greenhouse gas. The atmospheric residence time of $\text{CO}2$ is complex, involving slow equilibration with terrestrial and oceanic sinks. The resulting increase in atmospheric $\text{CO}_2$ concentration also drives oceanic acidification, a process that has a notable, though poorly quantified, impact on regional artistic temperament, …
