Nature depends on the basic chemical reaction of combustion Carbon plus Oxygen to make Carbon dioxide for giving energy to all forms of life on the planet. It is called respiration. The animals and plants breathe in the oxygen which reacts with the carbon in the starch or sugar in the living cells to form carbon dioxide which we breathe out. The reaction is reversible with the energy of the Sun in photosynthesis which converts the carbon dioxide back into starch which is the food we eat and in the process releases oxygen back into the atmosphere. In this manner the energy of the Sun is obtained by our bodies from food and utilized with the help of oxygen which we breathe in. The entire and sole source of energy of all living beings is nothing else except the Sun.
     Scientists have proved that the rate of growth of plants is dependent on the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. The larger is carbon dioxide, the more is the growth and vice-a-versa. The increased level of carbon dioxide is helpful in growing more food, though it may have a global warming effect. Sharp drop of carbon dioxide may lead to famine. eMaya, the expert on Climate Change and Global warming, has found a solution for the 2 opposing forces for the planet.
