Was this ok to say in the Living Environment Regents 2009?

The question was like a [5 pt. long question]
On name one specific things where humans release chemicals or something to harm an ecosystem.

Most people put CFCs causing ozone depletion and pesticides.

I do not know why... i couldnt think of these during the test, but I put:

Humans release harmful chemicals into the atmosphere by buring fossil fuels and thus release co2 and other green house gases. Every other part of the question like how can we stop this, how does this damage ecosystems , etc I answered with well-supported facts. But the question comes in Co2 and green house gases are not chemicals and gases...
But in reality a chemical is a material produced by or used in a reaction involving changes in atoms or molecules
So will I get full credit, 4/5 or none -_-
 
i had CO2 at first also but then i wasnt sure if it would qualify as a chemical so i changed it to carbon monoxide but im sure they'll give u credit
