  1. The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity.
  2. The making of cement.

Respiration. The process of respiration does not add carbon dioxide to the air. It recycles it, as part of the carbon cycle. When we breathe, we take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide - the same carbon that was removed from the atmosphere fairly recently (when the vegetables grew that supported us (or the animals that we eat!).

When we burn things carbon dioxide produced and added to air , carbon dioxide is also add when the smoke of vehicals produced ,on simple words the smoke of vehicals is carbon dioxide and smoke of burned things are carbon dioxide

Rotting trees add carbon dioxide (and sometimes methane) to the atmosphere.Burning trees releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.


Which process removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere?

There are several. The main ones are:PhotosynthesisCarbonate formationDissolution of carbon dioxide into seawater


How do organism add carbon to the atmosphere?

When a organism dies and decays it emits carbon dioxide.


How do animals add carbon to the atmosphere?

Just like humans do they breathe it out. They then remove carbon when they eat. This is part of the natural carbon cycle, and does not add extra CO2 to the atmosphere.


Carboniferous plus time scale plus 2010?

there is no word called carboniferous carbon is an element that has a grayish blackish color. its most common molecule is carbon dioxide. if you add that to the time scale, the carbon dioxide will add up in the atmosphere that we live in. ifyou add 2010 then you havethe amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the year 2010... which is alot. and people are tryingto reduce carbon emissions.


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.


What will burning trees in a forest or gasoline in car will do to the atmosphere?

Carbon dioxide, laid down millions of years ago when fossil fuels were formed.


Are bio-fuels good?

Yes because they do not add polluting carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, causing global warming. (They release carbon dioxide that was recently removed from the air, so biofuels are carbon-neutral.)


How is carbonic acid produced?

Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere or in soil gases dissolves in water: CO2 + H2O => H2CO3 carbon dioxide + water => carbonic acid


Does photosynthesis add oxygen to the atmosphere?

Yes, photosynthasis does add oxygen to the atmosphere becaause the organisms (plants) developed the ability to photosynthasise. By taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.


Name three ways that plants are helpful to people?

They add oxygen to the air.food and take in Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere


What natural process adds carbon dioxide to the air?

One natural process that adds carbon dioxide to the air is the process of respiration by plants, animals, and microorganisms. During respiration, these organisms release carbon dioxide as a byproduct. Additionally, volcanic eruptions also contribute to the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
