No. Iodine is released into the air by humans through coal and fuel oil burning power plants, and also by the ocean, with the ocean being a much larger supplier. The iodine is not harmful, and will typically return to the soil or ocean. While iodine can be radioactive, it normally decays quickly and becomes stable again.
The only form of iodine that has potential to be dangerous to the environment is a radioactive form that has a half-life of millions of years, and is released by nuclear power plants.

What else can I help you with?
Is SF6 a greenhouse gas?
Yes, SF6 is a greenhouse gas.
What is the formula for iodine gas?
The formula for iodine gas is simply I2(g). Iodine is a diatomic element. Therefore, in its elemental state, it contains two iodine atoms bonded to one another.
Is SO2 considered a greenhouse gas?
Yes, SO2 is considered a greenhouse gas.
Is ammonia considered a greenhouse gas?
Yes, ammonia is considered a greenhouse gas.
Why is nitrogen not considered a greenhouse gas?
Nitrogen is not considered a greenhouse gas because it does not absorb or emit infrared radiation, which is necessary for a gas to contribute to the greenhouse effect.
What gas is produced when iodine are heated?
When iodine is heated, it sublimes directly from a solid to a purple gas. The gas produced is diatomic iodine molecules (I2).
What is the purple gas which fills the test tube when heating an iodine?
The purple gas formed when heating solid iodine in a test tube is iodine vapor. Iodine sublimes directly from a solid to a gas when heated, turning into a purple gas that condenses back into solid iodine crystals when cooled.
Is SF6 a greenhouse gas?
Yes, SF6 is a greenhouse gas.
What noble gas comes before iodine?
The noble gas that comes before iodine is krypton.
Is Greenhouse gas a noun?
Yes, gas is a noun. Greenhouse here is an adjective describing 'gas'. Together they make a noun phrase, 'Greenhouse gas'.
What is the formula for iodine gas?
The formula for iodine gas is simply I2(g). Iodine is a diatomic element. Therefore, in its elemental state, it contains two iodine atoms bonded to one another.
Is iodine a colorless gas?
No, iodine is a violet coloured solid on heating it sublimed into violet gas.
What is the correct colour for iodine gas?
Purple !! :) x
Is sulfur dioxide a greenhouse gas?
Yes, sulfur dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
Is SO2 considered a greenhouse gas?
Yes, SO2 is considered a greenhouse gas.
Is ammonia considered a greenhouse gas?
Yes, ammonia is considered a greenhouse gas.
Chemical formula for iodine gas?
The chemical formula for iodine gas is I2, where two iodine atoms are covalently bonded together.
