Answer 1:

I would average it to be 1200 lbs of carbon dioxide a month. there are many yearly averages out there on the net so after looking at many of them I just estimated.

Answer 2:

A typical vehicle averages 15,000 miles per year, at about 20 miles per gallon (in the US). Each gallon of fuel burned emits 14 lbs of CO2. So dividing 15,000 by 12 (to get the monthly number of miles driven) we obtain 1250 miles. Dividing this by 20 gives us the number of gallons consumed per month: 63. 63 gallons times 14 lbs per gallon yields about 875 pounds of CO2 per automobile per month.

How much carbon dioxide is produced by the ocean?

The oceans are regarded as carbon dioxide sinks, not sources. This means they remove carbon dioxide, not produce it. Carbon dioxide dissolves from the air into ocean water. Once there it is removed by plankton and algae, by corals and mollusks in making shells, and by chemical action.


Does plants also change oxygen into carbon dioxide?

Yes, but at night. It make oxygen more than it does carbon dioxide though. ---- Plants, like animals, do have metabolisms by which energy is generated through the oxidation of sugar, which produces carbon dioxide. However, green plants consume much more carbon dioxide, in the process of photosynthesis, than they produce by means of their metabolism, and they produce much more oxygen than they consume.


Do any plants produce as much carbon dioxide as humans?

No, it's the other way around. Plants intake Carbon dioxide and put out Oxygen. In the theory of how the world formed, this is how the atmosphere got to contain Oxygen, from plants spreading over the continents and producing Oxygen.
