Best Answer

Carbon Monoxide causes the same problem as Carbon Dioxide.
It erodes away the O-zone layer. Which causes the earth to heat up because the o-zone is not pretecting us from the sun. The heat melts ice caps which slowly rises the water up until eventually there will be a new ice age.

Oxygen sticks to your blood, is carried to your cells and used to create energy. Carbon monoxide sticks to your blood more easily than oxygen and your cells are unable to create the energy required to live.

Where is carbon monoxide?

Carbon monoxide is not created by incomplete combustion. Almost all fuel burning appliances and fires do not burn at 100% efficiency. So some carbon monoxide gas is created.

However, there are many circumstances that can cause carbon monoxide levels to rise. http://www.carbon-monoxide-Survivor.com/carbon-monoxide-sources-where-it-comes-from.html
