  1. Cabon monoxide is a poison to anything that breaths oxygen.


  2. ahm it affects the human beings ourselves! we are not supposed to breath in CO in our body because we cannot get the oxygen in the CO bonding but some plants like yellowbell absorb the CO.

  3. carbon monoxide...

    when it bonds with loose oxygen molecules

    it becomes co2

    and that traps heat in the atmosphere

    warming up the planet

  4. Another aspect is this. The body has an affinity for simpler compounds. Given a large amount of carbon monoxide in an environment, the body will take it rather than oxygen, and be damaged by the substitution.

    That is why running near cars and traffic is detrimental to health.
