CO2 does cause global warming, but I don't see how it becomes a problem.
2. grow more greens
they consume CO2
3. putrify the waste from industry (so only CO2 will pass into atmosphere, not SO2, and SO3, etc), making strict laws and raise tax on heavy industry producing main polution.
this mainly apply to developing countries, who are doing their best to speed up economy. they normally pay little attention to the surroundings.

250-- These are great points, however I would like to 'clarify' one thing (I am not trying to be an a$$hole, just educating
)
There is a delicate balance needed in the atmosphere to maintain a sustainable environment for species on earth. Greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, and NO2) act to 'warm' the atmosphere, while Sulphur compounds (SO2, SO3, & SO4) act to 'cool' the atmosphere. The problem right now is that too many greenhouse gases are being released into the atmosphere and it is warming up faster than the sulphur compounds can cool it down. We need to restore that balance by reducing the emission of greenhouse gases so that the natural emission of sulphur compounds can 'catch up'.
