Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a greenhouse gas which is causing Global Warming. When there is a great amount of it in the atmosphere, then it absorbs a great amount of heat. This makes Global Warming worse.

Will the amount carbon dioxide the atmosphere soon be greater than the Amount of oxygen?

No, the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere is much greater than the amount of carbon dioxide. The current levels of carbon dioxide are approximately 0.04% of the atmosphere, while oxygen levels are around 21%.

Does respiration decrease or increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?

Respiration (breathing) has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Breathing is part of the carbon cycle. We take in carbon in our food and drink and we release it again when we breathe. If we eat too much, the extra carbon is stored in our bodies, making us fatter, in much the same way as a tree stores carbon in its wood as it grows.So breathing does not increase or decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

What happens when the increase of burning fossil fuels affect the carbon cycle?

When burning fossil fuels increases, more carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. This excess carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change. It disrupts the natural carbon cycle by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and oceans, affecting ecosystems and weather patterns.
