Combustion releases carbon dioxide as the carbon in the organic material is joined with oxygen from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is understood to be a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps heat in the atmosphere.

The increase in global temperature that is the greenhouse effect is primarily due to...?
The increase in global temperature that is the greenhouse effect is primarily due to our burning more and more fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) and so adding more and more carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases already there. The CO2 and other greenhouse gases hold the heat and stop it escaping to space. Cattle (for beef and milk) also belch out methane, which is a twenty times more dangerous greenhouse gas, and every day more and more forest land is being cleared for cattle. If the earth warms by only a degree or two many crop lands will turn to desert and many countries will become uninhabitable, with no means of growing crops or providing water to the inhabitants. There will be millions of global warming refugees, desperately looking for other countries to move to.
If you release carbon dioxide from burning nonrenewable resources what can happen?
Since the industrial revolution we have gradually been burning more and more non-renewable fossil fuel resources (coal, oil and natural gas) and so adding more and more carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases already there. Cattle (for beef and milk) also belch out methane, which is a twenty times more dangerous greenhouse gas, and every day more and more forest land is being cleared for cattle. These extra greenhouse gases are causing global warming.If the earth warms by only a degree or two many crop lands will turn to desert and many countries will become uninhabitable, with no means of growing crops or providing water to the inhabitants.

The greenhouse effect happens because gases in the air absorb the Sun's radiation Why does this matter?
The earth has always needed the greenhouse effect so we don't all freeze to death. However, since the industrial revolution we have gradually been burning more and more fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) and so adding more and more carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases already there. Cattle (for beef and milk) also belch out methane, which is a twenty times more dangerous greenhouse gas, and every day more and more forest land is being cleared for cattle. If the earth warms by only a degree or two many crop lands will turn to desert and many countries will become uninhabitable, with no means of growing crops or providing water to the inhabitants. There will be millions of global warming refugees, desperately looking for other countries to move to.
