The 2 main byproducts of human and animal respiration are water and CO2 and the main output is 36 moles of ATP (energy to do work):
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen in order to generate energy (ATP). Plants respire also but the mechanism is different. So the more food you consume, and the more activities you engage in sports, running, dancing, etc. the more water and co2 you are adding to the atmosphere.
Yes, it's true, evaporation stalls when the humidity is high which is caused by rising temperatures.
If you think about the implications of this, it is mind blowing. It means we are literally making the oceans rise and making the islands sink. We will have to find other planets to live on.

Where do you get the idea that "evaporation doesn't work"?
Water evaporates from oceans, lakes, and rivers constantly, but it is trapped in the atmosphere in the form of clouds and atmospheric moisture, and it returns to the surface in the form of rain.

169moons, what drugs are you on? A person (or animal for that matter) consumes more water than he/she produces. And what does this have to do with the oceans or evaporation?

evaporation is one of hydrologic cycle.so, i think, evaporation process will always occur and so ocean always there. the cycle make it balance.
