Given off when life forms breathe

Involved in photosynthesis

Shelters Earth from coldness of space

CO2 emissions causing global warming CO2 emissions from burning fossil fuels (oil coal and gas), greenhouse effect gets stronger resulting in…… Climbing temperatures Rising water levels Endangered species because of climate change

Endangered species because of climate change

How can we prevent this? Turn off lights to stop CO2 emissions Recycling plastic and paper saves energy Spread green; plant trees
