Answer:

<em>Asthma and COPD are both chronic lung diseases. COPD is mainly due to damage caused by smoking, while asthma is due to an inflammatory reaction. COPD is a progressive disease, while allergic reactions of asthma can be reversible.</em><em>With asthma, the swelling is often triggered by something you're allergic to, like pollen or mold, or by physical activity. COPD is the name given to a group of lung diseases that include emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Emphysema happens when the tiny sacs in your lungs (called alveoli) are damaged</em><em>.</em>

the increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has had an effect on the earths climate. What is that effect?
Phoenix [80]
The increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere creates a greenhouse effect.

To explain this usually some sunlight is reflected back into space while some is absorbed by the earth keeping the planet warm. However the increase in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide prevent the light from reflecting back into space and this light becomes trapped causing the earth to heat more then it should. You can almost think of the trapped heat from the greenhouse gases as a blanket around the earth trapping the heat in.
