- Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere.
- Deforestation (cutting down forests) mean that there are fewer trees all round the world to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
We are doing nothing to remove this extra gas. That is why we have global warming.

- and anything that involves burning
All Human activity produces CO2, we exhale it, so the more you exercise the more you produce.

What do you get when you add together one carbon and two oxygen?
Carbon dioxide, or CO2.
How do organism add carbon to the atmosphere?
When a organism dies and decays it emits carbon dioxide.
Why do biofuels not contribute to global warming even though burning biofuels releases carbon dioxide?
Biofuels are part of the natural carbon cycle, in which plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air and this becomes carbon which is eventually returned to the air when vegetation rots or is burnt, or when animals eat it and respire carbon dioxide back into the air. Thus, although burning of wood and biofuels does release carbon dioxide back into the air, this process does not add to the long term concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide. When we create carbon dioxide from carbon that has been sequestered underground, we add new carbon dioxide to the air, increasing its concentration and causing global warming.
What is the name of the substance of carbon dioxide?
Carbon dioxide is an inorganic gas. CO2 is the chemical formula of carbon dioxide.
How could you test that carbon dioxide is made?
To test for the production of carbon dioxide, you can perform the following experiment: Add a small amount of a substance that can produce carbon dioxide, such as baking soda, to a container. Then, add an acid, such as vinegar, to the container. If the production of carbon dioxide occurs, you will observe bubbling or fizzing, indicating the release of carbon dioxide gas.
Does respiration add carbon dioxide to the air?
Yes, respiration does add carbon dioxide to the air
What do you get when you add one carbon an two oxygen?
carbon dioxide
Do you get when you add One carbon and two oxygen?
Carbon dioxide.
What do you get when you you add 1 carbon 2 oxygen?
Carbon dioxide
What do they add for fizz in drinks?
carbon dioxide
What type of blood do the lungs receive?
Oxygen Poor blood. The lungs add the oxygen to the blood and then release the carbon dioxide.
What are two ways that deforestation adds carbon dioxide to the atmosphere?
Rotting trees add carbon dioxide (and sometimes methane) to the atmosphere.Burning trees releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
What do you get when you add a carbon atom with 2 oxygen atoms?
CO2 = Carbon Dioxide
What do you get when you add together one carbon and two oxygen?
Carbon dioxide, or CO2.
What human activities do not add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere?
Riding a bicycle is carbon neutral, which means it has no carbon footprint. It does not increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.Many other human activities, particularly sports and exercise are carbon neutral. But whenever you turn on some electrical gadget or ride in a fossil fueled vehicle you start increasing the carbon dioxide in the air.

How would you test or carbon dioxide?
add lime water to the air if the lime water turns cloudy then carbon dioxide is present
