Answer

Both the statements are correct.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a vital greenhouse gas that helps trap heat in the atmosphere, maintaining the Earth’s temperature at a level suitable for life. Without it, the planet would be extremely cold. However, excessive CO2—mainly due to human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation—is causing global warming and disrupting the natural climate balance.
