Answer:
Carbon dioxide is an integral part of the carbon cycle, a biogeochemical cycle where carbon is exchanged between Earth's oceans, soil, rocks and biosphere. Earth's present biosphere depends on atmospheric CO2 for its existence. Plants and other photoautotrophs use solar energy to synthesize carbohydrates from atmospheric carbon dioxide and water through photosynthesis. The carbohydrates derived from the consumption of plants as food is the primary source of energy and carbon compounds of almost all other organisms.
This prevents heat from escaping into space and causes excessive global warming. This is what is known as the "greenhouse effect".
