Answer: Human activity can affect the amount of carbon in the atmosphere. When fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere as waste. The clearcutting of forests for lumber and fuel also increases levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere because the trees can no longer remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere for photosynthesis. If trees are burned in order to be cleared, the burning processes release even more carbon dioxide into the air.

Answer:

Humans are moving more Carbon into the atmosphere with things like fossil fuels. We are also cutting down trees and other plants that actually take carbon away from our atmosphere through photosynthesis and adding oxygen. This is causing the carbon to get stuck in the atmosphere and contaminating our air.
