No, meat eaters are responsible for more carbon dioxide than vegetarians. Cattle belch a lot of methane, which is a greenhouse gas more powerful than carbon dioxide.

What energy source would produce the most carbon dioxide?

Industrailisation.


Do plant produce carbon dioxide?

Yes, for the most part, all life as we (humanity) understand it, produces carbon dioxide. HOWEVER, Plants generally produce a NET NEGATIVE amount of carbon dioxide. Animals breathe in Oxygen, use this to burn stored energy and perform work within the body, and in the process bond the oxygen to carbon producing carbon dioxide which is exhaled. Plants do the same thing. they absorb oxygen, and use it in the process of burning energy to fuel growth, repair, produce fruit, etc. The misconception is common that plants do not use oxygen and do not create carbon dioxide. This stems from the process of photosynthesis, wherein the plant absorbs carbon dioxide from its surrounding atmosphere, uses it in converting light energy to a form usable by the plant, and in so doing separates the carbon and oxygen atoms, 'breaking' the carbon dioxide. The oxygen is then released back into the environment, In most plants, they consume more carbon dioxide and produce more oxygen than the reverse. As a result, the plant takes in more carbon dioxide than it expels, and as such 'effectively' (but not literally) producing no carbon dioxide.

Why is carbon dioxide a by-product of fire?

Fire is a chemical reaction that occurs when a flammable substance reacts with oxygen and forms oxides. Most flammable substances on Earth contain carbon, and so will produce carbon dioxide when burned.


Does a chemical reaction happen in burning and respiration?

Yes, most carbon containing compounds or pure carbon burn 'chemically' to produce carbond dioxide.
