Which human activity might explain the change in carbon dioxide levels?

Our dependence on fossil fuels for electricity and transport is the main reason for the recent change in carbon dioxide levels. Also deforestation. Humans have cut down great forests all over the world.

How is carbon dioxide is produced through human activity.?
Climate scientist agree that carbon dioxide levels are rising because of the two human activities of deforestation and burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that is causing global warming and climate change.
What must be done to carbon dioxide gas to change it to solid?
the cold air can change the carbon dioxide gas to a solid
What changes carbon dioxide gas back into carbon in a solid form?
the cold air can change the carbon dioxide gas to a solid
Which increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change?
Any increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change.
What puts the most carbon dioxide into the atmosphere--respiration or fuel burning?
Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in 2010 put over 10 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.Respiration (breathing) depends on activity. A person sleeping emits about 0.3 cubic metres an hour, however, with strenuous activity this rises to between 7 and 8 cm/h.The difference between them, of course, is that carbon dioxide from respiration is part of the natural carbon cycle, and is removed regularly from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide from fuel burning is additional carbon dioxide that has been underground for millions of years, so releasing it now is causing global warming and climate change.
Is freezing carbon dioxide a chemical change or physical change?
Frozen carbon dioxide is still carbon dioxide, so it is a physical change.
Does plants change carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide?
plants do not change carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide. they, on the other hand, convert carbon dioxide in to oxygen.
What colour would Carbon dioxide change limewater to?
Carbon dioxide.
Which organs are oxygen and carbon dioxide changed?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide change in the lungs.

What must be done to carbon dioxide gas to change it to solid?
the cold air can change the carbon dioxide gas to a solid
If you could break up a carbon dioxide molecule would you still have carbon dioxide?
Although the molecule is broken up it does not change the fact that it is carbon dioxide. Therefore you still have carbon dioxide.
What cause the change in atmosphere?
The tectonic plates at the Earths core have movement.
What changes carbon dioxide gas back into carbon in a solid form?
the cold air can change the carbon dioxide gas to a solid
Which increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change?
Any increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change.
Is carbon dioxide a reversable or irreversible reaction?
This is a reversible change as it involves a change in the state of a substance. Also, by applying pressure and lowering the temperature, gases carbon dioxide can be converted back into dry ice.
Is combining carbon dioxide and water to make sugar a physical change?
Combining carbon dioxide and water is a chemical change, not a physical change, but it doesn't make sugar. Carbon dioxide and water makes carbonic acid. CO2 + H2O <--> H2CO3-->H+ + HCO3-
