What can you conclude about carbon dioxide emissions into today's atmosphere?

Co2 traps heat. therefore the more Co2 in the air the more heat we will collect and build up untill the tempiture gets so unstable that the atmosphere will tear compleatly appart and space will vacume out all gasses on the surface.

What has to reduce to solve the problem of global warming?
We have to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide and methane, the greenhouse gases, into the atmosphere.
What will burning trees in a forest or gasoline in car will do to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide, laid down millions of years ago when fossil fuels were formed.
Can the natural cycle of carbon dioxide emissions increase carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere?
No, the natural cycle of carbon dioxide (CO2) moves through the land, oceans and atmosphere, and has done for millions of years. It is able to remove all the natural carbon in the air (and part of the global warming carbon as well). It is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity that releases carbon that has been hidden underground for millennia that is increasing the carbon concentrations in the atmosphere.
How does urban sprawl increase carbon dioxide emissions?
Urban sprawl creates and increases carbon dioxide emissions via more vehicles on the roads. More people means more transportation needed. More vehicles on the road creates more carbon dioxide emissions.
When humans burn fossil fuels which will increase?
Fossil fuels produce large quantities of carbon dioxide when burned. Carbon emissions trap heat in the atmosphere and lead to climate change.
How can we reduce your carbon footprint?
If you want to reduce your carbon footprint, you can reduce your emissions of CO2 (carbon dioxide) into the atmosphere.
What are some predicted environmental damages if carbon dioxide emissions are not reduced?
Carbon dioxide is a gas most present in the greenhouse gases. If carbon dioxide emissions aren't reduced, they will continue to live on in the atmosphere destroying the ozone layer and resulting in detrimental climate changes.
How is the burning of cleared land contributing to greenhouse gas emissions?
Combustion releases carbon dioxide as the carbon in the organic material is joined with oxygen from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is understood to be a greenhouse gas, meaning it traps heat in the atmosphere.
What are carbon emissions a part of?
Carbon dioxide and monoxide are byproducts of combustion. You also breathe out carbon dioxide. The gases go into the atmosphere and play a (only partially-understood) role in the earth's climate.
What has to reduce to solve the problem of global warming?
We have to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide and methane, the greenhouse gases, into the atmosphere.
What will burning trees in a forest or gasoline in car will do to the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide, laid down millions of years ago when fossil fuels were formed.
Is Acid rain created when water vapor in the atmosphere absorbs carbon dioxide?
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce acids.
What planet has a thick carbon dioxide atmosphere?
Venus has the thickest carbon dioxide atmosphere.
Are carbon dioxide emissions bad?
I'm certain someone will debate me for this, but global climate change has been attributed largely to carbon dioxide emissions.
Terrestrial planet with a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere?
Mars is the terrestrial planet with a thin carbon dioxide atmosphere. Venus also has an atmosphere of carbon dioxide, but it is very thick.
Where does co2 loading occur?
- carbon dioxide is released in the atmosphere: - part of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is absorbed by the biosphere - part of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is absorbed by body of waters
What are two harmful effects on the atmosphere if you smoke?
Second-hand cigarette smoke which can contribute to lung cancer in non-smokers.Carbon dioxide emissions from the burning tobacco. Strictly this is part of the carbon cycle, as the carbon dioxide was recently removed from the atmosphere when the tobacco plant grew.
