CO2 (carbon dioxide) is produced when things are burned - for example wood, petroleum (and petroleum products such as gasoline), and coal. Most energy sources that don't rely on burning won't produce carbon dioxide. This includes nuclear energy (although nuclear energy does have other environmental problems), wave energy, geothermal energy, solar energy, and wind energy.

Why is the wind classified as a renewable energy source?
Because it is not exhaustible. There are limited quantities of coal and oil, but not wind. To add to that, wind power is renewable because the wind can never "run out" (and is a product of the Coriolis Effect, caused by the rotation of the earth and heat convection in the atmosphere, both natural phenomenon), so it can constantly be harnessed and used for the generation of electricity - Oscar
What is the energy source of the phosphorylation?
The energy source for phosphorylation in cells is often adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is a molecule that stores and transfers energy within cells and is commonly used to add phosphate groups to other molecules, a process that drives many cellular reactions.
What is so good about biomass?
Biomass energy is a carbon fuel that produced CO2 when burned, but that is OK because the carbon is on a short-term cycle. The carbon being put into the atmosphere is carbon that was taken out of the atmosphere as a plant grew, probably a few months or years before the biomass is being burned. So although biomass produces CO2, it is CO2 that was removed from the atmosphere relatively recently, which is sustainable.
When you add energy to matter what is its temperature?
When you add energy to matter, its temperature increases. This is because the added energy increases the kinetic energy of the particles in the matter, which manifests as a rise in temperature.
What is the easiest to add energy to matter?
You can raise an object (potential energy), make it move (kinetic energy), or add heat to it (heat energy, a.k.a. thermal energy).
Do volcanic activity and burning fossils fuel play a role in the carbon cycle?
Yes, both add CO2 to our atmosphere
What is the total energy input into the atmosphere from all sources?
The total energy input into the atmosphere comes from various sources such as solar radiation, geothermal heat, and human activities. Solar radiation is the primary source, providing the majority of the energy input. Geothermal heat from Earth's interior also contributes, while human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation add additional energy to the atmosphere.
What is the method to calculate the bond energy per mole for forming all the bonds of carbon dioxide (CO2)?
To calculate the bond energy per mole for forming all the bonds of carbon dioxide (CO2), you would add up the bond energies of the individual bonds in the molecule. The bond energy is the energy required to break a bond. In the case of CO2, you would calculate the bond energy for the two carbon-oxygen double bonds and add it to the bond energy for the carbon-oxygen single bond. This total energy would then be divided by the number of moles of CO2 to get the bond energy per mole.
Why does cement add CO2 to atmosphere?
The cement add carbon dioxide because lime stone is added in it. To make this Hard we use lime. Lime gives out co2 in the reaction between air and concrete. so this how co2 comes out of cement. BY SWETHAN PETER FROM RYAN GLOBAL SCHOOL GRADE 8
Does renewable energy release co2?
The well known types, Solar, Wind, Water do not. However, wood is a renewable form of fuel that when burned would produce CO2. This carbon dioxide does not add to global warming, as it was removed recently from the atmosphere while the wood was growing. So wood burning is carbon neutral.
Does biofuel contribute to global warming?
No, biomass burns grown vegetation to produce energy. Because the vegetation grew recently, it means it took carbon out of the atmosphere recently. Burning it puts the same carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. This makes it carbon neutral.
How do humans add nitrogen to the atmosphere?
Humans add nitrogen to the atmosphere primarily through the burning of fossil fuels, which releases nitrogen oxides. Agricultural activities, such as the application of nitrogen-based fertilizers, also contribute to nitrogen emissions into the atmosphere.
Does logging really add CO2 to our atmosphere?
Yes. Trees are so important because they turn Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere into Oxygen which we need to stay alive. So, the more trees that are cut down, the more Carbon Dioxide will stay in the atmosphere.
Why is the wind classified as a renewable energy source?

What happens if you add carbon dioxide to ozone?
If CO2 and ozone are added together, nothing happens. In other words, no reaction occurs. Carbon dioxide is extremely unreactive. At most, CO2 represents oxygen tied up that would otherwise increase the available oxygen to make ozone in the "ozone layer".
Why does the carbon dioxide released by burning biomass not result in global warming?
Biomass (burning of plant material) does release carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, but it is CO2 that was recently taken out of the atmosphere (when the plants were growing) so it doesn't add extra CO2 or cause global warming. Burning biomass then is part of the natural carbon cycle which moves CO2 in and out of the atmosphere.The carbon dioxide that comes from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) was taken out of the atmosphere millions of years ago, so releasing it now is adding extra CO2 (and causing global warming).This is why biomass is renewable energy and much better than fossil fuels.
Why don't you suffocate in a submarine?
Submarines have air systems aboard that add oxygen (O2) and remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere aboard. This keeps the crew from suffocating.
