(ii) Combustion of fuels : The various types of fuels are burnt to provide energy for various needs like heating, cooking, transportation and industrial fuels. (iii) Deforestation : Trees help in the conversion Of C02 into organic compounds such as glucose, starch, etc., by the process of photosynthesis.
