How does burning carbon-containing fuels contribute to Earth’s climate change problem?
The chemical reaction that happens when ethanol and oxygen mix produces two substances: carbon dioxide and water in the gas phase. Since both of these are invisible, colorless gases, it seems like nothing is left of the liquid that was in your gas tank. However, the atoms of the reactants haven’t disappeared at all—they’ve only rearranged to form the products. The carbon dioxide and water produced by this chemical reaction enter the atmosphere whenever we burn ethanol or other carbon-containing fuels. In the recent past, humans have increased the amount of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere by burning such fuels, resulting in widespread changes to Earth’s climate. In response to these effects, scientists are working to find fuels that can release energy without producing carbon dioxide.

Answer 1

Answer:

"Carbon dioxide (CO2) is one of a number of gases that are transparent to the visible light falling on the Earth from the Sun, but absorb the infra-red radiation (heat) emitted by the warm surface of the Earth, preventing its loss into space. During the geological history of the Earth the level of atmospheric CO2 has varied considerably and this has had an impact on the global temperature. A significant amount of this atmospheric carbon was sequestered or (removed from the atmosphere) and turned into inert material (coal, and oil) typically 300-360 Million years ago. All of the global ecosystems and species have adapted to a lower level of atmospheric CO2 and critically, human civilisation has also grown since that period.  Since the industrial revolution humans have been burning sequestered CO2 in the form of coal, oil, and natural gas which has the result of releasing energy but also releases CO2 back into the atmosphere".
