CO2 (carbon dioxide) is made whenever a carbon based item or lifeform burns (is oxygenated). It is also made whenever a hydrocarbon is degraded into water and carbon dioxide. CO2 generation is a natural process. Some examples include:

Converting sugar to energy, in almost all living matter. (Reverse of photosynthesis)

Burning fuels.

Adding vinegar to baking soda.

Alternate answer:

Most of the world's CO2 is made by rotting or decaying organic matter.
