More About carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide is a gas that is all around us. We can't see it, but it is very important. It helps plants grow and gives us air to breathe. When we breathe out, we make carbon dioxide.
In our daily lives, we make carbon dioxide when we run or play. Cars and factories also make it. This is why we need to be careful about how much we make.
In the future, we can help by using less energy. This can help keep the Earth cool. We can also plant more trees to help clean the air!
