No.
A recent (2014) study by Yale University asked:
Roughly how much carbon dioxide was in the atmosphere in the year 1850?
6% answered correctly 290 ppm (parts per million).
78% answered 'Don't know'
Researchers then asked:
Roughly how much carbon dioxide is in the atmosphere today?
7% answered correctly 390 ppm (it's now over 400 ppm)
76% answered 'Don't know'

What else can I help you with?
How man contribute to the formation of the atmosphere?
Well I know that the atmosphere has carbon dioxide in it, and when we breath out we release carbon dioxide that could be then added to the atmosphere.
What is the mass of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere at 350 ppm?
To calculate the mass of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere at 350 ppm (parts per million), we need to know the total mass of the atmosphere and the molar mass of carbon dioxide. The molar mass of carbon dioxide is about 44 grams per mole. At 350 ppm, the mass of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would be around 5.15×10^15 kg.
How do you know that you are affecting the planet?
We know we are affecting the planet because we understand carbon cycles and the use of carbon fuels and the effect of carbon dioxide on the atmosphere.
How did the formation of coal decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the earths early atmosphere?
The formation of coal removed carbon dioxide from the Earth's early atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. Plants absorbed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and stored it in their tissues. When these plants died and were buried, the carbon they had absorbed remained trapped in the coal deposits, thus reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Does Mars have carbon dioxide in its atmosphere?
Ah, well friend, Mars does indeed have an atmosphere that is mainly composed of carbon dioxide. Isn't that just fascinating? It creates surreal landscapes and an environment unlike any here on Earth. Just think of the wondrous possibilities that come from different compositions in our universe. Happy little carbon dioxide molecules floating around up there.
Why is it important for the earth to have some carbon dioxide in its atmosphere?
The natural greenhouse effect (helped by carbon dioxide) keeps the earth warm.The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect (from too much carbon dioxide) is causing global warming.
Draw and explain the oxygen carbon dioxide cycle?
If you google "diagram oxygen-carbon dioxide cycle", from the image search, you'll see tons of diagrams. I tried to post one, in response to your question, but some rude person deleted it without any explanation.
What is callisto's atmosphere?
Callisto has a very thin atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide and a small amount of molecular oxygen. However, it is considered to be a very tenuous atmosphere and not conducive to supporting life as we know it.
How does carbon dioxide in earths atmosphere allow earth to support life?
Carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere helps trap heat from the sun, creating a stable temperature range that allows for liquid water to exist on the planet's surface. This water is essential for life as we know it to thrive on Earth. Additionally, carbon dioxide is used by plants during photosynthesis to produce oxygen, which is vital for the respiration of most living organisms.
Phytoplankton play an important role in the carbon cycle because?
Phytoplankton helps to balance carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere while the ocean absorbs it. If there were no phytoplankton left, then carbon dioxide levels would increase in the atmosphere.
What two gases make up the bulk of the Earth's current atmosphere?
Nitrogen makes up most of the atmosphere. I am not sure which comes in second place, oxygen or carbon dioxide. I know our levels of carbon dioxide is rapidly increasing on this planet.
How do you know that Venus' has an atmosphere?
It's been known since the 18th century that when Venus moves in front of the sun, then translucent fringes can be seen around the planet from which it was suggested that Venus had an atmosphere. Robot ships have entered the Venusian atmosphere several times and we now know the composition and density of the atmosphere (it's mainly carbon dioxide).
