- Carbon dioxide (CO2) that is part of the carbon cycle. This carbon moves through the oceans, land and atmosphere naturally. This CO2 has been keeping the earth comfortably warm for millions of years.
- Carbon dioxide that comes from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. This has been hidden underground for 300 million years and is contributing to global warming.

What are two sources of carbon dioxide in air?
Carbon dioxide is the waste product of the process of respiration in plants and animals and it is also released into the atmosphere by active volcanoes.The burning of coal and wood

NO it is most certainly not. Carbon dioxide is a molecule found in the air made up of two elements carbon and two atoms of oxygen. Amino Acids are a type of Lipids, or Fats. Carbon Dioxide is definitely not a fat.
What are some examples of natural resources from the air?
Two are carbon dioxide and oxygen .
What is the product of humans?
Oxygen is extracted, by the lungs, from the air taken in, and carbon dioxide is released from them. So, there are really two products - oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Is carbon dioxide a compound or mixture or element?
Carbon Dioxide is a compound (chemical combination of two elements, carbon and oxygen). Air is a mixture (physical combination of multiple elements and compounds like carbon dioxide, oxygen and so on)
What do you get adding one carbon and two oxygen?
Carbon dioxide.
What internal organ releases carbon dioxide into the air?
There are a number of internal organs that help carbon dioxide to be released into the air. The two lungs are the major players with the heart and circulatory system helping.
Is carbon dioxide made of one atom of carbon dioxide and two atoms of dioxide?
No. These is no such element as "dioxide." Carbon dioxide is made of one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen.
