The correct answer is photosynthesis!

In fact, photosynthesis has the opposite effect: of reducing the among of carbon dioxide: it uses this gas and releases oxygen!

All the other options release Carbon dioxide, for example forest fires are a really big contributor to the amount of Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
