Scientists who are concerned about increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere believe global warming is caused by?
... the burning of fossil fuels, which is adding extra carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
How does the process of photosynthesis affect carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere during a typical year?
Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide as a raw material where carbon dioxide is fixed into organic molecules. This process lowers the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The seasonal fluctuation of carbon dioxide levels during a year may be caused by increased photosynthesis during spring and summer.
