I believe they cause a little co2 and gas which can harm the planetEcologists are worried about methane gas from cows . I hope you don't compare on that level .


What gases are in car exhaust that hurt climate?

Well, if humans cause global warming, then the CO2 and water vapor will cause problems.


Why can CO2 exhalation be used as a measure of respiratory rate in humans?

CO2 exhalation can be used as a measure of respiratory rate in humans because as we breathe out, we release CO2 which is a byproduct of cellular metabolism. This exchange of gases reflects the rate at which our body is producing and releasing CO2, which is directly related to our respiratory rate. By measuring the level of CO2 exhaled, we can determine how effectively our respiratory system is working.


What do humans do to create CO2?

Exhale.

Is CO2 and oil compatible?

CO2 and oil are not directly compatible for use together in most applications. CO2 is typically used for carbonation in beverages or as a solvent in some industrial processes, while oil is used as a lubricant or fuel. Mixing CO2 and oil can potentially cause issues such as phase separation or decreased lubrication efficiency.

How do humans use co2?

Humans produce CO2 through activities like burning fossil fuels for energy, driving cars, and deforestation. Plants absorb CO2 during photosynthesis, helping to mitigate its impact on the environment. However, the excessive release of CO2 by humans is contributing to global climate change and other environmental issues.


Can C02 cause a problem with your lungs?

CO2 is a normal byproduct of human life. Our bodies use oxygen to create energy during aerobic activity (with oxygen) and then our bodies produce CO2 due to this activity. The blood takes the CO2 from our cells to the lungs, and then while the blood is picking up more oxygen, it dumps the CO2 so we can exhale it. Since we exhale CO2 with every breath the gas itself does not cause harm to the structure of the lung. However, we cannot sustain human life without taking in oxygen and breathing out the resulting CO2. If we were to inhale CO2, we would deprive our bodies of the necessary oxygen and in a short period of time would pass-out. Continued breathing of CO2 would eventually cause respiratory and/or cardiac failure.


To covert in to vapor means?

To convert into vapor means to cause a substance to change from a solid or liquid state into a gaseous state. For example, boiling water vaporizes into steam......dry ice (solid CO2) vaporizes directly into CO2 gas


Why is greenhouse gas unhealthy to humans?

Because greenhouse gas has carbon dioxide in the air which is bad for your body. Actually, CO2 itself in the small amounts humans have been emitting (40 billion tons per year) isn't enough to directly cause adverse health effects. The problem is that this gas is primarily responsible for global warming, for which the long term consequences are expected to be largely negative, overall.
