Best Answer

humans

Insects. Humans produce, through respiration (breathing) about 2 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. If you add the production of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels and other human industry (26 billiion metric tons) and the respiration of domesticated animals (6 billion metric tons), the total carbon dioxide production that can be blamed on humans, directly or indirectly, is 34 billion metric tons. Insects, through respiration, produce 48 billion metric tons.

Does a candle create more pollution than a light bulb?

No. Burning 3 candles puts out slightly more CO2 than a 13 watt CFL bulb. However, The CFL bulb puts out about 24 times more light than 3 candles. In terms of a 100 watt incandescant lightbulb, it produces roughly the amount of light produced by 120 candles, however only produces about as much CO2 as 23 candles, so you could say it's about 5 times more efficient (in terms of pollution output) than a candle. A CFL bulb, then, is about 20 times more efficient than the candle.
