Is there anything that will help remove carbon dioxide from the body?
Breathing is the body's natural way to remove carbon dioxide. Increasing ventilation by taking deep breaths or being in well-ventilated areas can help remove excess carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide levels are a concern, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and treatment.
What natural process remove carbon dioxide from the air?
Photosynthesis is a natural process that removes carbon dioxide from the air. During this process, plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into energy while releasing oxygen as a byproduct. This helps to regulate the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and is essential for maintaining a balance in the Earth's ecosystems.
How does the greenhouse effect increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The greenhouse effect does not increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect happens because of the carbon dioxide (and other greenhouse gases) in the atmosphere.It is the burning of fossil fuels that increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Burning coal, oil and natural gas releases age-old carbon dioxide that was laid down underground millions of years ago, so letting it free now puts an impossible burden on the carbon cycle, which cannot remove it.
Do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air?
do autotrophs remove carbon dioxide from the air
What two things remove carbon from the air?
Forests and oceans are natural carbon sinks that remove carbon dioxide from the air through the process of photosynthesis and ocean uptake. Trees absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, while oceans absorb carbon dioxide through chemical and biological processes.
Can the natural cycle of carbon dioxide emissions increase carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere?
No, the natural cycle of carbon dioxide (CO2) moves through the land, oceans and atmosphere, and has done for millions of years. It is able to remove all the natural carbon in the air (and part of the global warming carbon as well). It is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity that releases carbon that has been hidden underground for millennia that is increasing the carbon concentrations in the atmosphere.
What do plants do to lessen the greenhouse effect?
Plants help lessen the greenhouse effect by absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. They store this carbon in their biomass, which reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Additionally, plants release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, which helps to balance the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Natural factors that decrease greenhouse gases?
Natural factors that decrease greenhouse gases include the carbon sequestration process, where plants absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, and the role of oceans in absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Additionally, natural weathering processes of rocks can help to remove carbon dioxide from the air over long periods of time.
What effect would over logging of trees have in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Over-logging of trees means that they can no longer remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This has actually happened and levels of carbon dioxide are building up in the atmosphere causing global warming.

What provides oxygen and removes carbon dioxide?
Trees and other natural habitats give off oxygen and we remove the carbon dixocide out of our bodies
How might the photosynthesis organisms counter the greenhouse effect?
Organisms which use the photosynthesis process are part of a large natural process called the Carbon Cycle. Important elements are vegetation and trees and the world's oceans. Not only do these emit carbon dioxide (a known greenhouse gas) to the air, they also capture it again (trees and plants because they need it for their photosynthesis processes) from the air. This way the amount of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere is left more or less stable. But humans also emit carbon dioxide (mainly by burning fossil fuels like oil, natural gas and coal) which puts additional amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. However, unlike trees, plants and oceans, we do not remove carbon dioxide from the air so eventually, the total amount of carbon dioxide in the air goes up and thus create the greenhouse effect. At present the natural Carbon Cycle already captures about 40% of human emitted carbon dioxide yet there are strong indications it cannot capture more (ie, increased ocean acidification due to high levels of carbon dioxide being absorbed). Could natural organisms be used to counter the greenhouse effect further? Possibly. But one has to remember that at present it is impossible to 'destroy' carbon dioxide. When such an organism dies, the carbon dioxide is eventually released back into the atmosphere.
