The chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water to oxygen and glucose (a simple sugar) via the process of photosynthesis. The oxygen is waste to the chloroplast and the glucose is used by the plant as both food and building blocks for making structural carbohydrate polymers like cellulose.
