Most of our electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), which burning emits the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide. So any use of air conditioners increases carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.
Data proposed by the IPCC says that buildings heat makes up over half of all the warming.

What are the effects of global warming to the ozone layer?
Global warming is heating of earth. It causes ozone depletion.
Does nuclear waste contribute to global warming?
No
Does humidity contribute to global warming?
Humidity itself does not directly contribute to global warming, but it can impact the greenhouse effect by affecting cloud formation. Higher humidity levels can lead to more cloud cover, which can trap heat in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.
What are facts about hydroelectricity?
Hydroelectricity does not contribute to global warming.
How do rice paddies contribute to global warming?
yes
Can volcanoes cause global warming?
Yes, volcanoes can contribute to global warming by releasing greenhouse gases and aerosols into the atmosphere.
What factors contribute contribute global winds?
The shape of the earth, uneven heating, and rotating earth contribute to global winds.
How do solar panels contribute to global warming?
Solar panels do not contribute to global warming. In fact, they help reduce greenhouse gas emissions by generating clean energy from the sun.
Why doesn't California make tourism illegal since it contributes to global warming?
Tourism contributes to global warming, yes, but if the tourists stayed at home, they would still be contributing to global warming by using electricity, transport, heating, and all the other ways we contribute to global warming. Tourism helps the local economy, which is why is still legal. When all travel is banned (except from renewable energy) many tourists will have to stay at home.
Does a refrigerator contribute to global warming?
Yes, refrigerators can contribute to global warming due to the gases they use as refrigerants, such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). If these gases leak into the atmosphere, they can trap heat and contribute to the greenhouse effect. It's important to properly maintain and dispose of refrigerators to minimize their environmental impact.
How do flying aircraft contribute to global warming?
exhaust from plane
What does a tornado do to contribute to global warming?
Tornadoes do not directly contribute to global warming. However, the severe weather patterns that can result from climate change, which is linked to global warming, may increase the frequency and intensity of tornadoes.
