Role of Carbon dioxide emissions in soil
- Carbon dioxide is one of the important greenhouse gas.
- Amount of 60 percent of CO2 of the total greenhouse effect is emitted from the atmosphere sinking the storage of soil and vegetation.
- Due to the burning of fossil fuels, emissions from forest fires, deforestation, and emissions of automobiles release highest amount of CO2 in soil.
Role of Carbon dioxide emissions in oceans:
- Ocean Acidification is one of the major cause of decrease the pH level of the ocean which is caused by the highest amount of carbon dioxide in oceans.
- Almost 40 percent of carbon dioxide is released due to the activities done the human that sinks the atmosphere and dissolve in oceans.
