No, it was the one with the figures. I didn't know what it wanted. How did you find the water and carbon cycle essay?

yeah was quite vague, I spoke about arable farming for crops and how when the soil is turned the carbon organic compounds are exposed to the air and carbon is transferred to the atmosphere, the spoke a bit about enhanced greenhouse effect and then just spoke about dairy farming with cows which release methane, which is a greenhouse gas so higher temperatures. That will lead to warmer ocean temperatures so they won't be able to hold as much co2 so positive feedback

That makes me feel so much better. I also mentioned arable and pastoral farming but also talked about deforestation. I wasn't really sure about the carbon budget so it threw me a bit.
