Termites and all other breathing creatures take in carbon every day (through eating and growing). Some of this carbon is released as carbon dioxide when they breathe out. This is part of the carbon cycle. It has no effect on global warming.

The biggest cause of global climate change is the burning of fossil fuels; coal, oil and natural gas. This burning releases carbon that has been hidden underground for 300 million years, so this is extra greenhouse gas. It has been building up in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution.
