What is the meaning of an "ephemeral visualization" of a carbon footprint when releasing carbon into the atmosphere is rarely ephemeral?

Carbon release is a very important problem, but I can't connect with this art project at all.

I guess because it is very hard to actually see the carbon being released? The classical picture is of a smoke stack, where the emissions are obvious at the tip of the stack but then rapidly disappear.
