The earth was much warmer by the time coal and petrol and all those fossil fuels were created. So, if we release all that CO2 again, we'll get as warm as it was then.
By only releasing the CO2 that was captured last year, it will even out. We will never go to a zero emission life-style. Even burning wood will release CO2.
