This includes emissions from transportation, electricity generation, industrial processes, and heating. Deforestation and land-use changes also contribute to carbon dioxide emissions.


Why do environmentalists believe that carbon dioxide emissions have increased?

At this time we are seeing rapid industrialization in China and India; conservation measures in the western world have not come close to offsetting the increased emissions from developing economies. Carbon dioxide emissions have increased.


How can carbon dioxide emissions be measured?

A cars carbon dioxide emissions can be measured by: * Laser light absorption techniques * Diverting a portion of the exhaust flow intoo a chemical cell * Bagging the emissions for late analysis * Portable CO2 meters


What is it called when carbon dioxide is released?

The release of carbon dioxide is called carbon dioxide emissions. This occurs when carbon dioxide gas is released into the atmosphere from various sources such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes.


Is ozone depletion an activity that is responsible for the largest percentage of human-made carbon dioxide emissions?

Actually the questions must be the other way round that is the largest percentage of human-made carbon dioxide emissions responsible for ozone depletion. But still carbon dioxide is not the only reason for the ozone depletion. Various other factors such as freons, CFC's etc are responsible for ozone depletion.
