How do you produce less carbon dioxide?

By restricting the burning of wood and coal we can reduce the production of carbon dioxide. To minimize the production of carbon dioxide we should also restrict direct oxidation of carbon.


What percent does central America contribute to the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in the world?

Central America contributes to less than 1% of the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in the world.


Do all organs produce the same amount of carbon dioxide?

No. Why should they? You've got tiny little organs like the parathyroid glands, they obviously don't need as much "power" to work as the brain or the muscles, and carbon dioxide production is more or less directly related to how much sugar the organ "burns".


When you breathe out what gas do you produce?

The air we inhale is roughly 78% by volume nitrogen, 20% oxygen, 1% argon and 0.04% carbon dioxide, helium, water vapour, and small amounts of other gases. The gases we exhale are essentially the same except that there is an increase (roughly 4% to 5%) in carbon dioxide and 5% to 10% less oxygen than was inhaled. Low quantities of other gases and compounds like ethanol (more if alcohol has been drunk) are also exhaled.


Do vegetarians produce most carbon dioxide?

No, vegetarians typically have a lower carbon footprint compared to meat eaters because plant-based diets require less land, water, and energy resources. Livestock production is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, so reducing meat consumption can help lower carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.

How can you lessen are carbon foot print?

we can lessen it by using less things which produce more carbon dioxide we should use less cars


How would air composition change if there where no plant?

i think there would be less oxygen because the plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen


How much carbon dioxide will a gas stove produce?

The amount of carbon dioxide produced by a gas stove depends on the type of fuel used and the efficiency of the stove. Burning 1 cubic foot of natural gas typically produces about 12 pounds of carbon dioxide. However, newer stoves are more efficient and produce less carbon dioxide compared to older models.


Why does burning petrol in a car engine produce carbon dioxide as well as carbon monoxide?

because the petrol reacts with the air forming sulphur dioxide. Then the sulphur dioxide goes through the catalytic converter and is then change into a less harmful gas, carbon diioxide and carbon monoxide.


Why is there more carbon dioxide in the winter?

During winter, there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere because plants go dormant and release less oxygen through photosynthesis, while human activities like heating and transportation produce more carbon dioxide.


What percent does central America contribute to the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in the world?

Central America contributes to less than 1% of the total amount of carbon dioxide produced in the world.


Does Nuclear energy produce more carbon dioxide than burning coal?

No, nuclear energy produces very little carbon dioxide during operation, while burning coal emits significant amounts of carbon dioxide. Nuclear energy is considered a low-carbon energy source.


What is the role for carbon dioxide on this earth?

We would die without carbon dioxide - carbon dioxide is essential to the production of oxygen! Trees and green plants ingest carbon dioxide from the atmosphere; plankton and green algae from the salt water (including ocean) or fresh water they live in. These green things produce oxygen as part of the process of photosynthesis. Oxidation produces some carbon dioxide, too, but the net effect is to give off less carbon dioxide, and produce more oxygen than they use. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere forms part of the greenhouse effect, which, if its levels are not disturbed, keeps the earth pleasantly warm enough for life.


Why is the increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide less than the amount of carbon dioxide emissions produced by burning of fossil fuels?

The oceans and vegetation absorb a significant amount of the carbon dioxide emissions produced by burning fossil fuels, which reduces the overall increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide. However, this absorption capacity is limited, and the excess carbon dioxide that remains in the atmosphere contributes to global warming and climate change.


What cars produce less Co2?

Hybrid cars produce less carbon dioxide because they run partially on an electric motor and partially on a gasoline engine. Therefore a hybrid will produce less CO2 than a car that relies solely on a gasoline powered engine.


What is the most prolific producer of carbon dioxide?

Plant and animal waste decay is the largest producer of carbon dioxide. Forest fires and volcanoes is another huge source. Then the burning of fossil fuels is the greatest man made contributor. There is less carbon dioxide in the summer as plants use it to produce oxygen.
