Carbon dioxide production occurs when carbon-containing materials are burned or decomposed. This process happens in various natural and human-made activities, such as the combustion of fossil fuels in vehicles and power plants, as well as during respiration in living organisms. In addition to these activities, carbon dioxide is also released during industrial processes, such as cement manufacturing and the fermentation of sugars in food production. The increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere is a significant factor in climate change, as it contributes to the greenhouse effect, trapping heat and leading to global warming.
