Carbon dioxide is naturally absorbed and released by the terrestrial biosphere as well as by the oceans.
Carbon dioxide is also formed by the burning of wood, coal, oil, and natural gas, and these activities have increased steadily during the last two centuries since the Industrial Revolution.
A marked seasonal oscillation of carbon dioxide concentration exists, especially in the northern hemisphere because of the extensive draw down of carbon dioxide every spring and summer as the green plants convert carbon dioxide into plant material, and the return in the rest of the year as decomposition exceeds photosynthesis.

The carbon atom is electrophilic since it is bound to a (more electronegative) halogen, which pulls electron density away from the carbon, thus polarizing the bond with carbon bearing partial positive charge and the halogen bearing partial negative charge.
Carbon can only have a maximum of 8 valence electrons, so as the carbon-nucleophile bond is forming, then the carbon-leaving group bond must be breaking.
Iodide is the leaving group since it leaves with the pair of electrons that once bound it to carbon.

 How Can Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) Get to the Stratosphere if They are Heavier than Air?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
For example, the two gases carbon tetrafluoride (CF4, produced mainly as a byproduct of the manufacture of aluminum) and CFC11 (CCl3F, used in a variety of human activities) are both much heavier than air.
Carbon tetrafluoride is completely unreactive in the lower 99.9% of the atmosphere, and measurements show it to be nearly uniformly distributed throughout the atmosphere as shown in the figure.
There have also been measurements over the past two decades of several other completely unreactive gases, one lighter than air (neon) and some heavier than air (argon, krypton), which show that they also mix upward uniformly through the stratosphere regardless of their weight, just as observed with carbon tetrafluoride.

Carbon savings of 29 Mt are estimated for a 10% increase in OECD recycling of these materials.
In addition, economy-wide instruments (e.g., phaseout of energy subsidies and adoption of carbon taxes) could affect emissions in the sector by encouraging processes that are less energy- or fossil fuel-intensive.
Projected average annual growth in both energy use and emissions is close to 1% per year greater for the world as a whole, indicating the growing importance of the industrial sector in non-Annex I countries.

Traditional etching chemicals, such as, for example, carbon tetrafluoride, hexafluoroethane, perfluoropropane, nitrogen trifluoride, bis (trifluoromethyl) disulfide, and sulfur hexafluoride, and their perfluorinated by-products, such as carbon tetrafluoride and hexafluoroethane, have relatively high Global Warming Potentials.
Even though the HFC etchant compounds for use in the present invention have a fluorine to carbon ratio no greater than 2 to 1 (as set forth in Formula (1)) which is less than traditional etchants, it has been found that these etchant compounds, nevertheless, etch a wide variety of materials.
In fact, as shown in the examples below, HFC-245fa, which has a fluorine to carbon ratio of 5: 3, etches some materials more rapidly than its more-fluorinated counterpart HFC- 236fa, which has a fluorine to carbon ratio of 2: 1.
