Respiration by animals is one of the ways through which carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere. The other way is through burning fuels that are carbon-based.
Some carbon dioxide is absorbed by the top levels of the oceans where it is beginning to turn the oceans more acidic. That and photosynthesis are the only ways that carbon dioxide is taken out of the atmosphere. Industries that emit carbon dioxide pollution are trialling ways of trapping carbon dioxide as it goes up the chimney stacks (scrubbers).

Rotting trees add carbon dioxide (and sometimes methane) to the atmosphere.Burning trees releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
There are many ways. But it is happening when burning.
They add oxygen to the air.food and take in Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere
carbonic acid, carbamino compounds and dissolved gas
They release carbon dioxide when they burn.The burnt trees are no longer available to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis.

Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide
There are several ways that the oceans are related to atmospheric carbon dioxide:Carbon dioxide dissolvs into water to make a weakly acid carbonic acid. The acidity of the ocean water has increased with increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levelsOf the plants on the earth, phytoplankton probably accounts for 80% of the earth's oxygen from photosynthesis where CO2 is converted to O2. Some speculate that an increase in carbon dioxide may cause a phytoplankton bloom.Some ocean animals (corals and mollusks) use carbon dioxide as carbonate to form their shells
What are ways the body changes the way we breathe in effort to keep our levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide balanced
