The 3 main fossil fuels that affect the atmosphere are:
When burned, these release carbon dioxide into the air.
However, did you know that ANY burning of ANY items also release CO2?
Respiration (breathing) has no effect on the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Breathing is part of the carbon cycle. We take in carbon in our food and drink and we release it again when we breathe. If we eat too much, the extra carbon is stored in our bodies, making us fatter, in much the same way as a tree stores carbon in its wood as it grows.So breathing does not increase or decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Respiration :)
Human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. These activities release carbon that has been stored for millions of years, adding to the greenhouse effect and contributing to climate change.
Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Respiration and other aspects of the carbon cycle do not increase the amount as a similar volume is being removed at the same time.
When burning fossil fuels increases, more carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. This excess carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change. It disrupts the natural carbon cycle by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and oceans, affecting ecosystems and weather patterns.

Photosynthesis by green vegetation and forests.
One direct effect of increases in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is global warming. This is due to carbon dioxide trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to increased temperatures and causing changes in climate patterns.
The direct effect of increases in the amount of carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere is global warming. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to an increase in average global temperatures and contributing to climate change.
Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Respiration and other aspects of the carbon cycle do not increase the amount as a similar volume is being removed at the same time.
There is no insulating LAYER of Carbon Dioxide round the Earth. The Carbon Dioxide is mixed up with the Oxygen and Nitrogen in Earth's atmosphere and is not present in the atmosphere as a layer. If the absolute amount of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the Earth would get warmer.
