Solution

Measures for controlling $C O_{2}$ level in atmosphere:
1. Increasing vegetation cover : It will increase utilisation of atmospheric $C O_{2}$ in photosynthesis.

2. Seeding of oceans with phytoplankton : Increased photosynthetic activity of oceans will result in decreasing $C O_{2}$ concentration.

3. Carbonation : $C O_{2}$ released during combustion should not be allowed to pass into atmosphere. Instead, it can be changed into carbonates.

4. Alternate sources of Energy : Instead of fossil fuels, hydrogen fuel and solar energy should be used.

5. Burning of litter : Litter and crop residue should not be burnt but instead converted into manure.
