CO2 rises into the atmosphere and makes the temperture rise when the temp rises the north and south pole starts to melt causing global warming
Mangab
CO2 absorbs, them re-emits radiation at the wavelength in the infrared section of the spectrum.
energy from the sun comes in at much higher energy levels, and shorter wavelengths, that CO2 does not interact with.
if you’ve walked on the street or sidewalk at night, they’re warm.
they cool off by emitting infrared energy.
CO2 in the atmosphere absorbs that, preventing it from going directly into space.
CO2 then re-emits the energy, and some is lost.
but some is returned to the earth, reducing the amount of energy lost.

CO2 traps heat, reflecting it back to Earth instead of letting it escape into space. It’s just like a blanket, but burning fossil fuels has made the blanket too thick. So now too much heat is trapped and the Earth cannot release as much heat as it needs to.
Vchan
it might not be causing global warming
but its probably up there
the CO2 gets caught in the atmosphere and pops holes in the ozone layer causing heat from the sun to get caught in the atmosphere
