Answer:

increase

Explanation: PLATO

CO2 is a greenhouse gas. It traps infrared light and prevents it from leaving Earth. So, if the level of CO2 increases, more heat will be trapped, which will result in an increase in Earth’s average temperature.

Of course increases. Because we know that CO2 is one of the reason for Green House effect and we know that this effect is responsible for heating up of earths surface. Hope it helps.
