I wonder. Carbon dioxide is always in the air. We even breathe it out ourselves. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. This means it traps heat in the atmosphere which contributes to global warming. Trees breathe in carbon dioxide, which is why they are so good for the environment.
When whales in the ocean poop, it falls to the ocean floor. Their poop is very high in iron, and this helps the phytoplankton grow. Phytoplankton are very good at absorbing carbon, which helps reduce the effects of global warming.
