Increased levels of CO2 contribute significantly to climate change by enhancing the greenhouse effect, leading to global warming and resulting in extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disrupted ecosystems. Additionally, higher CO2 concentrations can cause ocean acidification, which negatively impacts marine life, particularly coral reefs and shellfish. These environmental changes also pose risks to agriculture, water supply, and human health, creating broader socio-economic challenges.

Why does the arterial Po2 decrease with emphysema?

emphysema is a condition of loss of elasticity of the alveoli where exchange of oxygen and Co2 occurs. The alveoli cannot efficiently exchange oxygen for Co2 so Co2 builds up in the blood. It is usually caused by chronic smoking but can be caused by other diseases/conditions.

Important to prevent the phenomenon caused by carbon dioxide on earth?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a requirement for life on Earth. Humans must have a certain level in the air they breathe. All plants take CO2 from the air and make oxygen. Problems arise when CO2 reacts to sunlight and turns into an acid. When that acid falls on the ground we call it acid rain. It is also believed that excess CO2 in the atmosphere can keep sun rays from bouncing off the earth into space. That could cause a warming of the atmosphere, oceans and land.
