carbon dioxide :p
It's in the air and we exhale carbon dioxide.A small percentage of the atmosphere is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is released by the metabolic processes of organisms, and by our burning of fuels. In recent decades, the amount of carbon dioxide has increased so much, some scientists believe maintaining the current amount of carbon dioxide will devastate Earth's climate. Actually, today there were festivals held all over the world to make people aware of this issue. See http://www.350.org/

When natural gas is burned, carbon dioxide is released into the air as a product of the combustion, and the air already has an excess amount of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas, which contributes to global warming.
The amount of carbon dioxide a person produces
When you burn fossil fuels to make enrgy, carbon dioxide is released. So, if you burn less fossil fuels, less carbon dioxide is released.

By expiration carbon dioxide is released.
Forest fires increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
In pre-industrial times, the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2)that animals breathe out was matched by the amount absorbed by plants, so that the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide remained remarkably stable in the range of 260 to 280 parts per million (ppm) over a very long period. Adding additional carbon dioxide by burning fossil fuels, overwhelms the carbon cycle and causes the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide to rise beyond this range. Deforestation can break the carbon cycle, first by removing a store of carbon which will be released as additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and in some cases by reducing the ability of nature to absorb carbon dioxide from the air.
When natural gas is burned, carbon dioxide is released into the air as a product of the combustion, and the air already has an excess amount of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas, which contributes to global warming.
The amount of carbon dioxide exhaled is always greater than the amount inhaled because part of the oxygen inhaled is converted into carbon dioxide by metabolic processes of digestion, while any carbon dioxide inhaled remains unchanged in the body and is always exhaled again.
The answer is: carbon dioxide that is released by animals is absorbed by plants ;)))
