Are carbon footprints an environmental issue?

No, carbon footprints are not an environmental issue.Instead, they can be viewed as part of an environmental problem or as part of an environmental solution, depending upon the context. Specifically, the problem is the amount of carbon dioxide in the environment. Environmental problems, such as high levels of carbon dioxide, may either find their root cause in natural events or result from human intervention.Either way, the issue is how to solve the problem. Therefore, how best to lower levels of carbon dioxide in the environment is part of the issue that hopefully leads to amelioration or resolution of the problem.

Can dry ice cause a lot of carbon dioxide?

Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide. While it doesn't cause anything, when dry ice sublimates (melts, except without becoming a liquid), gaseous carbon dioxide is released. So if this happens in an enclosed space, there will be a buildup of carbon dioxide.
