Yeah, we, as humans, exhale CO2! However, since your question is the (presumed) correlation between CO2 and earth temperatures, again, please view the video. This subject is dealt with in great detail.

Okay, I watched the video and it was interesting. Then I did a little reading about the reaction to the video:

Following criticism from scientists the film has been changed since it was first broadcast on Channel 4. One graph had its time axis relabelled, the claim that volcanoes produce more CO2 than humans was removed, and following objections about how his interview had been used, the interview with Carl Wunsch was removed for the international and DVD releases of the programme.
Other scientific arguments used in the film have been described as refuted or misleading by scientists working in the relevant fields.[9][19] Critics have also argued that the programme is one-sided and that the mainstream position on global warming, as supported by the scientific academies of the major industrialised nations and other scientific organisations, is incorrectly represented.[9]

There are lots of websites that debunk this film or at least significant parts of it. I thought the part about the poor, developing nations was frankly pathetic. That's not to suggest that all of it should be dismissed, but also it shouldn't be swallowed hook, line and sinker either.
