CO2 makes up 0.04% of the atmosphere currently (25 times less than 1%). - Humans contribute just 3% of that. 3% of 0.04% is 0.0012% (833 times less than 1%). - Which means that, if we stopped human carbon emissions completely, it would make 833 times less than 1% of a difference to the atmosphere.

Currently, CO2 is approximately 500 parts per million (ppm) of our atmosphere. During the pre-cambrian explosion (called so because of the 'explosion' of life on the planet) CO2 was approximately 50,000 ppm. Tell me again how this gas, that occurs naturally in our bodies as a byproduct of aspiration, is poisonous to all living things and makes the sun hot.
