Carbon dioxide emissions are the common type of gas emitted from the burning of fossil fuels. When this CO2 is released in to the atmosphere it remains there until it is absorbed in some form. 50% of CO2 emission released in to the atmosphere is absorbed by oceans. The ocean absorbs half of all carbon released into the atmosphere. CO2, like all greenhouse gases does not absorb light waves from the sun where it absorbs heat waves because they have longer wave lengths than sun light does, thus stopping the heat from being reflected into space. This is called the "greenhouse effect" and has been linked by scientists to global climate change. if we reduce CO2 emissions the air we breathe will be cleaner and that has got to be good for everyone.
