The impact of carbon dioxide on human life and the environment

1. Although carbon dioxide is not toxic, it cannot provide breathing. People in an environment with high carbon dioxide concentration will feel stuffy, headache and even suffocate to death. Generally, we will use CO2 Sensor to measure its concentration.
2. The carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere continues to rise, resulting in an increasingly serious greenhouse effect. The result is global warming, which brings serious environmental problems.
(1) Greenhouse effect: The carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere makes it difficult for the energy of sunlight absorbed by the ground to dissipate, thereby causing global warming. This phenomenon is called the "greenhouse effect".
(2) Gases that can produce greenhouse effect: CO2, O3, CH4, chlorofluoroalkanes (fluorochloromethane), etc.
(3) Harm of the greenhouse effect: causing glaciers at the poles to melt, raising sea levels, and submerging some coastal cities; desertification of land, resulting in reduced agricultural production; causing severe and extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods to increase in frequency and intensity; Affect natural ecosystems, alter biodiversity, and more.
(4) Methods to prevent the greenhouse effect: reduce the use of fossil fuels and make more use of clean energy such as solar energy; improve energy efficiency; vigorously plant trees and afforestation, and strictly prohibit indiscriminate logging; use physical or chemical methods to artificially absorb CO2, etc.; advocate "Low carbon" living (reducing carbon dioxide emissions).
