It happens all the time. Someone leaves a car running in a garage, someone decides to use a charcoal-fired grill indoors. We lose several here in Florida every year from both causes.
Does NOT happen in an all electric home, unless someone brings something that burns fuel, like propane, gas or any other type. I live in an all electric home and have no problems. All electric home is safe, just do not bring stuff in and burn, like gas heaters or BBQ's.
The boiling water itself does not increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This is just water vapor, which is itself a greenhouse gas, but is not carbon dioxide. However, in order to boil the water, you need heat. This heat can be generated by 1) burning wood, 2) burning natural gas, or 3) using electricity. Burning wood or natural gas releases carbon dioxide. Using electricity does not release carbon dioxide, but generating electricity usually does. Most electricity in generated by burning coal, which releases carbon dioxide. Only if the electricity is generated by nuclear, hydro-electric, wind or solar power will there be no carbon dioxide released.
Yes, soil bacteria release carbon dioxide into the environment through the process of respiration.
Air conditioners do not emit carbon dioxide because they are sealed systems. Their electric motors are also emission free unlike gas or electric engines. However, most electricity is still generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), so any use of air conditioners has a carbon footprint (that is, carbon dioxide emissions).
Some of the process that fix carbon dioxide are limewater + carbon dioxide equals calcium carbonate + water. Another is calcium carbonate + water + carbon dioxide = aqueous calcium bicarbonate. These equations work in reverse to release carbon dioxide.
Trees absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis to produce energy and grow. They use the carbon dioxide to produce glucose (sugar) and release oxygen as a byproduct. This process helps to remove carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the tree's biomass.
When you smoke, ride a vehicle, or use electricity, you let out carbon dioxide.
TVs produce carbon dioxide indirectly through the electricity they consume, which often comes from power plants burning fossil fuels like coal or natural gas. These power plants release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a byproduct of generating the electricity used to power TVs.
Animals breathe in oxygen and release carbon dioxide. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
Electricity is conducted by free electrons. Carbon dioxide is a gas compound. It does not have free electrons. Sit does not conduct electricity.

yes
No. Carbon Dioxide is covalently bonded, so there are no delocalised(free moving) electrons to carry the charge.
trees absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen
The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity releases carbon dioxide.
Organisms like humans, animals, and plants release carbon dioxide as a byproduct of respiration. Additionally, decomposers such as bacteria and fungi also release carbon dioxide during the decomposition process.
Electricity is only indirectly related to the greenhouse effect since it is not a greenhouse gas, however, a lot of electric generation is done by burning fossil fuels, which of course does release carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas. Any use of electricity has what can be called a "carbon footprint". Of course, that is also true of everything that human beings do. Everything has some degree of impact on global carbon dioxide levels; even breathing releases carbon dioxide.
No, carbon dioxide is a non-conductor of electricity. It is a poor conductor because it does not contain free ions or electrons that can carry an electric current.
