Carbon dioxide (and other gases) creates a "blanket" around the earth trapping heat in the atmosphere. If these "greenhouse" gases were not there some of the heat would escape from the earth's atmosphere
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Carbon dioxide is transparent to visible light but opaque to infrared light (i.e. heat).
When sunlight passes through the atmosphere and heats the surface of the earth the earth radiates infrared light. At low levels of carbon dioxide most of this infrared escapes to space, cooling the earth; but at high levels of carbon dioxide most of this infrared is reflected back down to the surface of the earth, keeping it hot.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a greenhouse gas, that is, it is able to absorb infra-red heat rising from the surface of the earth. So if CO2 levels in the atmosphere are higher, then more warmth is absorbed and the atmosphere becomes hotter.
This is what is happening now. Through deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels, CO2 levels are rising in the atmosphere, causing global warming.
yes
global warming you fooles
Carbon dioxide helps to raise the temperature of the planet by contributing to global warming.

Carbon dioxide is considered a greenhouse gas contributing to the global warming.

Increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is considered a factor that increase the global warming.
Carbon dioxide is the most important greenhouse gas and contribute to global warming.

To rise. This is global warming.
It causes Global Warming,as the temperature increses , Green house effect .As carbon dioxide trapes heat.
Forests (and all vegetation) remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This reduces the effects of the enhanced greenhouse effect, slowing the rising temperatures of global warming.
Carbon dioxide. The increase of carbon dioxide is the cause of global warming.
