Almost all fuel used to create energy (coal, oil, gas) causes carbon dioxide emissions, therefore not using aka saving energy will reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Nature produces most of the carbon dioxide. Man produces about 6% of all CO2 produced. Much of this by items that would otherwise rot and create CO2 naturally.

What is the solution to emissions?

Emissions from factories can be reduced by installing 'green' devices to reduce the amount of soot, carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. The Government can also promote the use of public transport instead of private transport so as to reduce exhaust given out by cars.

How does afforestation offset global warming?

Forests absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) and store the carbon. A company or country emitting CO2 can plant trees to 'offset', or counterbalance their emissions. They may find it cheaper to do this rather than to reduce their emissions. Through afforestation they reduce their carbon footprint, and raise their standing among their peers.
