Is Co2 bad for the air and envirmint?
Answer:
Surprisingly, it depends on where the CO2 comes from.
The CO2 in your paintball guns was extracted from the air very recently. Putting that back is no problem.
The CO2 from burning fossil fuels is a serious problem.
There is a natural "carbon cycle" that recycles CO2. But it's a delicate balance and we're messing it up.
Look at this graph.

The little squiggles are nature doing its' thing. CO2 falls a bit during summer when plants are active, and rises during the winter. The huge increase is us, burning fossil fuels. The scientists can actually show that the increased CO2 in the air comes from burning fossil fuels by using "isotopic ratios" to identify that CO2. The natural carbon cycle buried carbon in fossil fuels over a very long time, little bit by little bit. We dig them up and burn them, real fast. That's a problem, called "global warming".
Man is upsetting the balance of nature. We need to fix that.
what air mixture do plants thrive in?
good for plants. plants use CO2 in photosynthesis and release O2 for us to breathe.
So it's good, so do other gases God created. It's the way we handle/control it that matters
