2. What is Rice Farming? - Chris
Rice is a swamp grass that is widely used as food
When humans farm rice in paddies, the fields are flooded and bacteria decompose organic matter resulting in methane which is called CH4
CH4 is a carbon containing gas
Land plant to atmosphere and land plant to land animals is the process in which it moves
Fast track

3. How it affects the carbon cycle - Mia
The temperatures rise
extra carbon gets released
When rice is being planted in the patties the rice plants release methane gas into the air
Growing demand

4. Where should it be placed on the poster? - Matt
The rice farm should be placed by the water
We can represent it as a rice field with the arrow pointed to the atmosphere
The form of carbon is methane
