Earth's living organisms, including humans, are often referred to as carbon-based life forms. This means our bodies and the plants and animals around us contain carbon compounds such as sugars, starches and proteins. In addition, there are many carbon compounds in everyday use around the house, in our cars and outside. Carbon is very versatile and is part of many of the molecules that make up objects we use constantly. Add the fact that we exhale carbon dioxide, which is in the air everywhere, and it becomes obvious that carbon is a very important element for life.

All living things contain carbon compounds, and most beings breathe out carbon dioxide, which is found in the air. Plants use carbon dioxide to create carbohydrates via photosynthesis, and animals get the carbon for their carbon compounds by eating plants or other animals. In addition to these organic compounds, carbon is found in the molecules making up rubber, plastics, gasoline, natural gas and mineral oil. Charcoal, coal and diamonds are mainly carbon. Carbon uses in everyday life include burning carbon compounds for heat or energy and eating foods containing carbon in the form of carbohydrates.
While carbon dioxide and food containing organic compounds are common, other products containing carbon illustrate the importance of carbon in our daily life. Products such as rubber and plastics contain carbon because they are made from refined petroleum. Mineral oil is made up of hydrocarbons and contains mainly hydrogen and carbon. The same is true for gasoline and natural gas, and we burn hydrocarbons to produce carbon dioxide when we drive anywhere or heat a space with petroleum products.
