There are many ways to generate electricity. Methods that burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) produce carbon dioxide. Methods using renewable energy do not. Nuclear power plants, although uranium in non-renewable, do not produce carbon dioxide. Power stations could be rebuilt to use different fuel sources. Biomass and biofuel will power a coal fired power station without emitting the carbon dioxide pollution.

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".
