Carbon dioxide (CO2) is still building up in the atmosphere because we are still burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which emits CO2, and we are still cutting down trees which then cannot remove CO2 from the atmosphere. The natural carbon cycle is unable to remove all the extra CO2 (it actually manages to remove almost 60% of it), so the carbon is building up in the atmosphere and causing global warming.
Carbon is cycled from the atmosphere to producers (plants) through photosynthesis, where they take in carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Consumers then consume these plants, obtaining carbon by eating them. When consumers respire or decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Over-logging of trees means that they can no longer remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This has actually happened and levels of carbon dioxide are building up in the atmosphere causing global warming.
Carbon is stored in the atmosphere primarily as carbon dioxide (CO2) molecule.
An example of carbon moving from the atmosphere to the hydrosphere is when carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere dissolves into the oceans. This process, known as carbon sequestration, helps regulate the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and directly impacts the ocean's acidity levels.
In the carbon cycle, a carbon source releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, while a carbon sink absorbs and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

He was poisoned with dioxin poison.
All of them. Oxygen allows animals to live, carbon dioxide allows plants to live, and ozone protects all from UV radiation. However, plants are poisoned by oxygen and animals are poisoned by carbon dioxide; both are also poisoned by ozone.
Carbon is removed from the atmosphere in some ways. For example, plants and trees eliminate carbon from the atmosphere through photosynthesis. Carbon will be released into the atmosphere when an organism dies.
Most of the carbon in the atmosphere is in the form of carbon dioxide, (CO2) gas.
Carbon Cycle.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule in which carbon is found in the Earth's atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide rises in the atmosphere.
Carbon is cycled from the atmosphere to producers (plants) through photosynthesis, where they take in carbon dioxide to produce glucose. Consumers then consume these plants, obtaining carbon by eating them. When consumers respire or decompose, carbon is released back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the molecule that carries most of the carbon in the atmosphere.
