In line with other previous and contemporaneous proposals, in 1912 the meteorologist  alfred wegener  amply described what he called continental drift, expanded in his 1915 book the origin of continents and oceans and the scientific debate started that would end up fifty years later in the theory of plate tectonics.

Combining the emissions released by fossil fuel burning and  the carbon released via land use change, we get a total of 8.7 gt. since the problem states that the oceans "take up" or sequester  2.4 gt carbon  per year, we subtract that value from 8.7 gt, leaving us with 6.3 gt of carbon. since the problem states that 3.4 gt carbon dioxide emissions end up in the atmosphere, the "missing sink" of carbon takes up 2.9 gt, a value we got by subtracting the 3.4 gt amount recorded from the 6.3 gt carbon left available after the oceans sequester the carbon dioxide.
