Anything that is part of the carbon cycle releases carbon dioxide which moves in and out of the atmosphere, trees, oceans, animals and land.Anything that is part of the fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) industry releases carbon dioxide most of which remains in the atmosphere, building up. Examples are: factories, vehicles and power plants.
The tiny Himalayan country of Bhutan. Its forests remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than its people emit.
Some carbon dioxide is absorbed by the top levels of the oceans where it is beginning to turn the oceans more acidic. That and photosynthesis are the only ways that carbon dioxide is taken out of the atmosphere. Industries that emit carbon dioxide pollution are trialling ways of trapping carbon dioxide as it goes up the chimney stacks (scrubbers).

Photosynthesis is the process by which carbon dioxide is taken out of the atmosphere by plants. During photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to produce glucose and oxygen. The carbon in the carbon dioxide is incorporated into the plant's tissues, effectively removing it from the atmosphere.
Yes, I think soil can emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
Yes, soils can emit carbon into the atmosphere through a process called soil respiration, where microorganisms decompose organic matter and release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. This process is a natural part of the carbon cycle.
Yes, like most living things, insects are part of the carbon cycle which puts CO2 into the atmosphere and removes it again in a constant cycle.
Humans emit carbon dioxide by breathing. They also emit carbon dioxide by belching and they emit methane by farting.

Bio fuel emits carbon dioxide (CO2) that was removed from the atmosphere when the plant grew (this year, probably). Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) emit carbon dioxide that has been hidden away for millions of years. So using biofuel instead of fossil fuel means that less carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere.
All animals emit CO2 (carbon dioxide) as waste. When you breathe out, you are expelling carbon dioxide. Anytime anything is burned, the results are H2O (water) and carbon dioxide. Engines in cars burn gasoline for energy and carbon dioxide is released. This is the same as what factory smokestacks do to produce carbon dioxide, which is thrown into the atmosphere.
