N2  - The charcoal from last night's barbecue is clearly made of carbon. But so are you, in many ways. And so is just about every life-form on Earth. Inside, read about one of the most important elements in our world. Learn how carbon, being key in the issue of climate change, impacts just about every part of our lives and planet. Carbon is in what we eat, but it's also in products that enrich our lives--everything from bicycle parts to car tires to plastics of every kind
