(iv) The organic compounds of FOSSIL FUELS plants and animals are buried in the deep soil where they are act by decomposers to change them in petroleum, coal, oil and carbonate roc.. These substances on their combustion release `CO_2` , into atmosphere.
(v) Some `CO_2`, is found in dissolved state in HO. This gets convened into `CaCO_3`, in lime stone. The weathering and combustion of carbonates containing rocks or treatment of their minerals gives `CO_2`
(vi) The hot springs and volcanic eruptions also given out `CO_2` into the atmosphere
