- 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.
What else can I help you with?
What is the most carbon-neutral country in the world?
The tiny Himalayan country of Bhutan. Its forests remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than its people emit.
How is carbon dioxide taken out of the atmosphere besides photosynthesis?
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).
How do you emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere primarily through the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas for energy production, transportation, and industrial processes. Deforestation and other land use changes also contribute to the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
How much carbon dioxide does a Lorry emit?
500g
Are animals primary consumers of carbon dioxide?
No, animals are not primary consumers of carbon dioxide. Plants are the primary consumers of carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis. Animals, on the other hand, release carbon dioxide through respiration.
Does Soils emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
Yes, I think soil can emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Do cars emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere?
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
Do cars emit CO2 into the atmosphere?
Yes, cars emit carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as a byproduct of burning gasoline or diesel fuel.
Do soils emit carbon into the atmosphere?
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.
Do insects emit carbon dioxide?
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.
What gasses are you emitting?
Humans emit carbon dioxide by breathing. They also emit carbon dioxide by belching and they emit methane by farting.
Do seeds emit carbon dioxide?
no

How can using bio fuel help to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
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.
Where is CO2 usually found?
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.
Do cars pollute the air or people?
Both. Cars emit Hydrocarbons + Nitrogen Oxides + Carbon Dioxide + Carbon Monoxide. People emit Methane and Carbon Dioxide.
