CO2 - Otherwise called carbon dioxide effects our climate in many different ways. The way it works is that basically certain 'greenhouse gases' can't escape from our atmosphere because they get trapped. CO2 is what plants need to create oxygen etc. But when there is too much CO2 being admitted into our environment from burning fossil fuels, cars etc, and we are cutting down trees for paper - it is imbalanced and now it has started to catch up with us. a.k.a global warming. Because these gases are trapped in our atmosphere, they have more time to collect heat from our atmosphere and the sun - thus making our climate increase in heat. This then triggers ice caps to melt and floods to occur and then one day we will face a world with no more fresh water and many extinct animals who cannot survive in warm climates.
Carbon Dioxide would indirectly effect us by increasing global warming, melting the polar ice caps and flooding the world!

Global warming is a fraud and a fallacy. Look up John Coleman (He's the founder of the Weather Channel and a top notch meteorologist.) on Google, and he'll debunk the entire global warming myth in a single post. Look up his videos on YouTube and he'll thoroughly explain why global warming is a myth and how it's become so popular today. As John Coleman once wrote about global warming, " It is the greatest scam in history."
Trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. When trees are cut down and not replaced, this carbon dioxide is no longer absorbed, leading to an increase in its levels in the atmosphere. Additionally, when trees are burnt or decompose, the stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Carbon is stored in the atmosphere primarily as carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule.
The process of photosynthesis helps remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
There is much more nitrogen in earth's atmosphere than carbon dioxide. Nitrogen forms about 79%, while carbon dioxide makes up about 0.04%.
The atmosphere of Mars is almost entirely CO2.
Carbon dioxide rises in the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule that carries most of the carbon in the atmosphere.
Yes, I think soil can emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
The process of decay releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere

Most of the carbon in the atmosphere is in the form of carbon dioxide, (CO2) gas.
About 95.3% of Mars' atmosphere is composed of carbon dioxide.
Well I know that the atmosphere has carbon dioxide in it, and when we breath out we release carbon dioxide that could be then added to the atmosphere.
Respiration :)
Venus and Mars haveatmospheres mostly consisting ofcarbon dioxide.
No. The Martian atmosphere is very thin, but it does consist mainly of carbon dioxide. Venus is the terrestrial planet with a dense atmosphere of carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid.
