Yes, nuclear energy does not produce CO2 by-products. No by-products are released into the atmosphere, all are contained within the reactor. The energy comes from a neutron colliding with a uranium atom causing it to split into two different atoms.

How does respiration affect the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Respiration, breathing, has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This is part of the natural carbon cycle. Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases carbon dioxide that has been hidden away for millions of years. This extra gas is increasing in the atmosphere.


Where can you put carbon dioxide so it doesnt go into the atmosphere?

If you freeze it (probably only in lab conditions) it will turn to a solid and therefore will not pollute the air!

It doesnt sound safe! No as there is always a certain amount in the air, however if you inhale nothing but that, you would suffocate.


Do animals inhale carbon dioxide or oxygen?

Nope -- they do just exactly the opposite: inhale and use oxygen, and exhale more carbon dioxide, just as all mammals do. This was an old wive's tale that's been around for years, that goes on to say cats can suck away a baby's breath -- which has no basis in fact whatsoever.
