It raises the temperature and makes it hotter through the greenhouse effect.
When coal or natural gas are burned, they release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming. This increase in carbon dioxide levels is a major driver of climate change and its associated impacts on the environment and human health. Transitioning to cleaner energy sources is crucial to reduce these emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change.

Propane stoves generally produce more carbon dioxide emissions compared to natural gas stoves. This is because propane is a denser fuel and requires more oxygen to burn efficiently, leading to higher emissions. Natural gas, on the other hand, is lighter and burns more cleanly, resulting in lower emissions.
From 1934 until 2010, the last year we have complete data on, the planet has seen less than 0.2 degrees (C) of actual warming despite man's 80 times increase in carbon dioxide emissions. This is partially due to the small amount of overall emissions that man is compared to the rest of the planets natural emissions.
The burning of fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, or oil can rapidly increase the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide. This increased concentration of greenhouse gases leads to global warming and climate change by trapping heat from the sun and causing the Earth's temperature to rise.

Hydroelectricity is better because it releases no carbon dioxide emissions to cause global warming. Natural gas is the cleanest of the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), but it is still responsible for carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

No, the natural cycle of carbon dioxide (CO2) moves through the land, oceans and atmosphere, and has done for millions of years. It is able to remove all the natural carbon in the air (and part of the global warming carbon as well). It is the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity that releases carbon that has been hidden underground for millennia that is increasing the carbon concentrations in the atmosphere.
Urban sprawl creates and increases carbon dioxide emissions via more vehicles on the roads. More people means more transportation needed. More vehicles on the road creates more carbon dioxide emissions.
Burning fossil fuels such as coal or natural gas can increase the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

Human activities such as burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as deforestation and industrial processes, are the main sources of carbon dioxide emissions that are contributing to the increase in the atmosphere.

Yes, global warming is caused by carbon dioxide emissions from vehicles, but also by deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, and the generation of electricity, which all releases carbon dioxide.
