Burning fossil fuels turns potential energy into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is energy in motion, which can be used to do work.
How does the greenhouse effect increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
The greenhouse effect does not increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect happens because of the carbon dioxide (and other greenhouse gases) in the atmosphere.It is the burning of fossil fuels that increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Burning coal, oil and natural gas releases age-old carbon dioxide that was laid down underground millions of years ago, so letting it free now puts an impossible burden on the carbon cycle, which cannot remove it.

Is burning a tree chemical or physical?
well its both because...it's a chemical change because when the tree is burning it's letting oxygen and carbon oxide in the air. It's also a physical change because if that tree is sharing roots with another tree that other tree root will become damaged and will sooner or later will be dry rotted and the tree will fall over(it can also damage the grass around it).
