If you were out today:
We discussed the Do Now on Carbon Sinks from the Dinosaur Breath reading.  A carbon sink is a place the carbon can go and be stored.

Copy down the following near yesterday’s Do Now: Examples of Carbon sinks include the atmosphere, the ocean, the bodies of plants and animals, and the Earth’s crust.  
See me for a copy of the Dinosaur Breath Question sheet if you need one, and correct it using the key on the Science Blog.
