. What does Carbon Dioxide do to the Earth's temperature?

Carbon dioxide controls the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere and thus the size of the greenhouse effect.

Explanation:

This means that Earth's temperature will increase at least another 0.6 degrees Celsius bc of carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere.

According to the theory, carbon dioxide controls temperature because the carbon dioxide molecules in the air absorb infrared radiation. ... Because the carbon dioxide blanket prevents its escape into space, the trapped radiation warms up the atmosphere.
