Smoking releases a little carbon dioxide, but smokers produce less carbon dioxide than non-smokers over the course of their lives. All animals produce carbon dioxide constantly via respiration, which is necessary for them to survive--all the food you eat is "burned" in your cells (oxidized), and you breathe out carbon dioxide with every breath--and smoking shortens the life of a smoker by several years on average, so the decrease in carbon dioxide production caused by the shortened lifespan is greater than the carbon dioxide emitted by the burning cigarettes. Also, because they die younger, non-smokers don't burn as much gasoline, use as much electricity, etc.

No, but carbon dioxide can be found in cigarette smoke.

The key is in the way you ask the question.
A better way would be:
Does tobacco smoke cause CO2 pollution?

What you asked me was if it CAUSES CO2, which it doesn't, because the CO2 is already there, in raw form, and is released through burning, which causes some minor air pollution.
