Question

Negitive effects of carbon dioxide

Answer 1

Answer:
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas: a gas that absorbs and radiates heat.  But increases in greenhouse gases have tipped the Earth's energy budget out of balance, trapping additional heat and raising Earth's average temperature.

Carbon dioxide is the most important of Earth's long-lived greenhouse gases.

The major threat from increased CO2 is the greenhouse effect.
As a greenhouse gas, excessive CO2 creates a cover that traps the sun's heat energy in the atmospheric bubble, warming the planet and the oceans.
An increase in CO2 plays havoc with the Earth's climates by causing changes in weather patterns.
