Best Answer

No, air conditioners just blow out hot or cold air, so they don't produce carbon dioxide.

The use of air conditioners adds to carbon dioxide emissions because energy is used making them, as well as running them. Most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).

Do air conditioners emit carbon dioxide?

Air conditioners do not emit carbon dioxide because they are sealed systems. Their electric motors are also emission free unlike gas or electric engines. However, most electricity is still generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so any use of air conditioners has a carbon footprint (that is, carbon dioxide emissions).


Why are plants called nature's air conditioners?

it is called natures air conditioners because they purify the air by absorbing carbon-dioxide and releasing oxygen by photosynthesis.the presence of carbon -dioxide increases the temperature of atmosphere.all plants give out in excess water during transpiration in the form of water vapour


How does the carbon in coal become part of the carbon dioxide in the air?

When coal is burnt the chemical change combines carbon from the coal with oxygen from the air to produce carbon dioxide.


Do plants need clean air to make oxygen and food?

No they take in the carbon dioxide, to produce oxygen. So they produce more oxygen in dirtier (more air containg carbon dioxide) air.

How is carbon dioxide formed from a mixture of sewage microorganisms and air?

The bacteria digests the nutrients from the sewage and like humans, uses respiration to produce air and water. In this air there is CO2 (Carbon Dioxide).


Why you need balance of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the air?

The brain tells all your blood cells and veins to start cleaning out the carbon dioxide out of the blood.


How is carbon dioxide return to the air?

Carbon dioxide is what flowers and trees bring into their systems. They produce it into oxygen and that is what people breathe. That is how it is returned into the air because of flowers, plants, and trees.
