This is the difference in carbon dioxide for a time period
[math]\sum_{i=0}^t C_{tot}(x_i, y_i)=\sum_{i=0}^t C_{in}(x_i)-C_{out}(y_i)[/math]
If [math]C_{tot}[/math] varies about zero then the sum hovers around zero. However if at each time step you add a little bit of Carbon dioxide from humans then. It grows by [math]\sum_{i=0}^t C_{humans}(x_i)[/math].

As humanity has been industrializing rapidly you can near approximate new output as an exponential function.

The world processes a shit load of carbon every year but tipping the balance while also reducing the ability of the world to sequester carbon through fucking destroying the biosphere (ocean acidification killing phytoplankton) means that we are still dumping shit loads of carbon in the atmosphere that nothing is pulling out.
