I TEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Some of the information in this report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as "may," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they:

· discuss our future expectations;

· contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial condition; and

· state other "forward-looking" information.

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or over which we have no control. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors," "Business" and elsewhere in this report. See "Risk Factors."

OVERVIEW

Carbon Sciences is developing a technology to convert the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide (CO2), into gasoline and other fuels.

The fuels we use today, such as gasoline and jet fuel, are made up of chains of hydrogen and carbon atoms aptly called hydrocarbons. In general, the greater the number of carbon atoms there are in a hydrocarbon molecule, the greater the energy content of that fuel. For example, gasoline has hydrocarbons with 7 to 10 carbon atoms and jet fuel has 10 to 16 carbon atoms. Hydrocarbons are naturally occurring in fuel sources such as petroleum and natural gas. To create fuel, hydrogen and carbon atoms must be bonded together to create hydrocarbon molecules.

Our CO2-to-Fuel technology directly transforms CO2 and H20 (water) into low level hydrocarbons. These low level hydrocarbons can then be easily used to produce high level fuels, such as gasoline and jet fuel with readily available technology. The key to our CO2-to-Fuel technology lies in a proprietary multi-step biocatalytic process. Instead of using expensive inorganic catalysts, such as zinc, gold or zeolite, with traditional high energy catalytic chemical processes, our process uses inexpensive, renewable biomolecules to catalyze certain chemical reactions required to transform CO2 into basic hydrocarbon building blocks. Of greatest significance, our process occurs at low temperature and low pressure, thereby requiring far less energy than other approaches.

The energy efficient biocatalytic processes we are exploiting in our technology actually occur in all living organisms where carbon atoms, extracted from CO2, and hydrogen atoms, extracted from H2O, are combined to create hydrocarbon molecules. Our breakthrough technology allows these processes to operate on a very large industrial scale through advance nano-engineering of the biocatalysts and highly efficient process design.

Our corporate mission is to enable a sustainable world of fuel consumption and climate stability by transforming CO2 into fuel. When commercially developed, our CO2-to-Fuel technology can be used to transform CO2 emitted from fossil fuel power plants into gasoline, to power our cars.

Corporate Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2006, as Zingerang, Inc. Our name was changed to Carbon Sciences, Inc. on April 9, 2007. Our principal executive offices are located at 5511C Ekwill Street, Santa Barbara, California 93111, and our telephone number is (805) 456-7000. Our fiscal year end is December 31

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option pricing model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue on product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, such as when a purchase order or contract is received from the customer, the selling price is fixed, title to the goods has changed and there is a reasonable assurance of collection of the sales proceeds. We obtain written purchase authorizations from our customers for a specified amount of product at a specified price and consider delivery to have occurred at the time of shipment. Revenue is recognized at shipment and we record a reserve for estimated sales returns, which is reflected as a reduction of revenue at the time of revenue recognition. We defer revenue on products sold directly to the consumer with a fifteen day right of return. Revenue is recognized upon the expiration of the right of return.

Revenues from research and development activities relating to firm fixed-price contracts are generally recognized on the percentage-of-completion method of accounting as costs are incurred (cost-to-cost basis). Revenues from research and development activities relating to cost-plus-fee contracts include costs incurred plus a portion of estimated fees or profits based on the relationship of costs incurred to total estimated costs. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and an allocation of allowable indirect costs as defined by each contract, as periodically adjusted to reflect revised agreed upon rates. These rates are subject to audit by the other party.

Use of Estimates

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's cash, cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued two FASB Staff Positions - FSP FAS 109-1, Application of FASB Statement 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, and FSP FAS 109-2 Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. Neither of these affected the Company as it does not participate in the related activities.

In May 2005, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections." This new standard replaces APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements," and represents another step in the FASB's goal to converge its standards with those issued by the IASB. Among other changes, Statement 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. Statement 154 also provides that (1) a change in method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived non-financial asset be accounted for as a change in estimate
(prospectively) that was effected by a change in accounting principle, and (2)
correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a "restatement." The new standard is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption of this standard is permitted for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of Statement 154 and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2008

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Selling and Marketing ("S&M") expenses increased by $56,648 or 37.86% to $206,286 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to the prior period. The increase in S&M expenses was due primarily to an increase in market exposure.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses increased by $22,162 or 57.17% to $60,929 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to the prior period. The increase in G&A expenses was due primarily to an increase in rent expense.

Research and Development

Research and Development ("R&D") costs increased by $9,603 or 22.72% to $51,861 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to the prior period. The increase in R&D was the result of an increase in employee salaries.

Net Loss

Net Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $296,826 compared to $226,315 for the prior period. Currently the Company is in its development stage and had no revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2009, we had a ($155,444) working capital deficit as compared to working capital of $720,679 as of March 31, 2008. This decrease of $876,123 was due primarily to use of funds for operating expenses.

During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company used $317,241 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $198,284 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was a result of an increase in selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, and research & development.

Cash provided by investing activities was $0 and $191,441 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Cash provided from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $321,650 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of private placements, as we are currently in the development stage and had no revenues.

Our financial statements as of March 31, 2009 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued their report dated May 7, 2009 that included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS

We are engaged in developing a technology to convert the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide (CO2), into a useful form that will not contribute to global warming. We plan to develop our products and thereafter focus our efforts on establishing markets in the power plants and industrial factories sectors by 2010.

Our plan of operation within the next twelve months is to utilize our cash balances to continue research and development of our CO2-to-Fuel technology. We believe that our current cash and investment balances will be sufficient to support development activity and general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months. Management estimates that it will require additional cash resources during 2009, based upon its current operating plan and condition. We will be investigating additional financing alternatives, including equity and/or debt financing. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next twelve months, we may be forced to reduce the size of our organization, which could have a material adverse impact on, or cause us to curtail and/or cease, the development of our products.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
