What would happen to the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere if a forest is burned down? Explain why.

The levels of carbon dioxide would decrease

If a forest was burned down, then the fire of course it would be wildfire, spreading everywhere, so just like a power plant and cars have that air pollution that infects the air and makes people sick, the same is with the forest because the fire is burning the grass and the smoke is going up to the atmosphere so its contaminated and is spreading everywhere, so you could say the level of carbon dioxide is infected with smoke and could possibly kill you if inhaled a lot.
