| activated carbon A powdered, granular or pelleted form of amorphous carbon characterized by a very large surface area per unit volume because of an enormous number of fine pores | aktív szén |
| aggregate anthropogenic carbon dioxide equivalent emissions of greenhouse gases | üvegházhatású gázok összesített, antropogén eredetű, szén-dioxid egyenértékben vett kibocsátásai |
| carbon credit | szén-dioxid-kredit |
| carbon cycle The cycle of carbon in the biosphere, in which plants convert carbon dioxide to organic compounds that are consumed by plants and animals, and the carbon is returned to the biosphere in inorganic form by processes of respiration and decay | szénciklus |
| carbon dioxide A colourless gas with a faint tingling smell and taste. Atmospheric carbon dioxide is the source of carbon for plants. As carbon dioxide is heavier than air and does not support combustion, it is used in fire extinguishers. It is a normal constituent of the atmosphere, relatively innocuous in itself but playing an important role in the greenhouse effect. It is produced during the combustion of fossil fuels when the carbon content of the fuels reacts with the oxygen during combustion. It is also produced when living organisms respire. It is essential for plant nutrition and in the ocean phytoplankton is capable of absorbing and releasing large quantities of the gas, CO2 | szén-dioxid |
| carbon dioxide equivalent | szén-dioxid-egyenérték |
| carbon dioxide footprint | szénlábnyom |
| carbon dioxide intensity | szén-dioxid-intenzitás |
| carbon dioxide intensity | CO2-intenzitás |

| carbon monoxide Colorless, odourless, tasteless, non-corrosive, highly poisonous gas of about the same density as that of air. Very flammable, burning in air with bright blue flame. Although each molecule of CO has one carbon atom and one oxygen atom, it has a shape similar to that of an oxygen molecule (two atoms of oxygen), which is important with regard to it's lethality, CO | szénmonoxid |
