Burning cardboard does not release poisonous fumes, so it is not toxic.
~
Burning cardboard as any incineration does emit fumes. The reasoning here is that it depends on the cardboard, how it is created . Currently card is recyclable however, there are many diverse usages for material classed as cardboard. This include being made waterproof, containing ink for labeling and display, adhesives. In any burning process paper or card (Fast-growing pine trees provide the primary raw material used to make corrugated cardboard) this releases carbon dioxide and with that dioxins.

What is the problem with burning gas?
Burning gas, if you haven't noticed with the whole world anyway, is getting toxic chemicals into the atmosphere and I don't know about you but I don't really want to die!

Do toxic chemicals help bacteria to grow?
The question is toxic to what. Not all chemicals which are toxic to humans are toxic to bacteria, and some chemicals which are toxic to bacteria are harmless to humans (which is why we can have antibiotics). There are chemicals (like Hydrogen Sulfide) which are very toxic to mammals that SOME bacteria eat as food. But there are other chemicals like chlorine which are toxic to both humans and bacteria. So the question does not have a simple answer.
