How common is carbon dioxide

[DigitalExplorer]

I'm hoping I can get some help from the forum members. I was wondering how common carbon dioxide is. Does it occur naturally in the environment or is it only created by human activity? What are some of the sources of carbon dioxide? Are there any ways to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere? Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most common type of greenhouse gas in the Earth's atmosphere. It is a naturally occurring gas, and it is also released in large quantities by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. As of 2020, the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is about 415 parts per million (ppm), which is higher than at any point in the past 800,000 years. This increase in CO2 levels is largely responsible for the observed increase in global average temperatures.
