Because trees consume carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.
Desalination plants, turning sea water into fresh water, use a lot of energy. Most electricity is still produced by burning fossil fuels, which release carbon dioxide emissions. These extra emissions are causing global warming.
burning fossil fuels
Carbon is the element that is black and is produced when there is incomplete burning.
Before the development of human technology, SO2 in the atmosphere came primarily from volcanic emissions and NO from lightning strikes that stimulated formation of this compound from the nitrogen and oxygen present in the natural atmosphere. Now, both of these materials come primarily from burning fuels: Some sulfur is present in coal and in fuels derived from petroleum, and nitrogen is present in biomass fuels, because of their protein content.
By burning coal.
A:Carbon dioxide is produced by burning fossil fuels. Since it is a greenhouse gas, the present continued increase in atmospheric levels is considered by scientists to be a predictor of global warming.
The burning of rainforests releases carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, as the combustion of anything does.When the rainforests are destroyed they no longer are able to remove CO2 from the atmosphere.Both these things lead to an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Yes. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. When we increase its atmospheric concentration, as we do by burning fossil fuels, it causes an enhanced greenhouse effect, leading to global warming.
Oxygen is produced by plants and blue-green algae and consumed by burning and animals breathing.
Any burning releases carbon dioxide emissions. The only solid waste would be ash or unburnt things like meat bones.
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.Nitrogen oxides can be produced naturally by lightning strikes and sulphur dioxide is produced by volcanic eruptions and industrial emissions. It also can be from gases from burning coal and oil released into the air.

Burning fossil fuels like gasoline has emissions of carbon dioxide and water.
