Carbon dioxide cannot burn anything, unless of course when it is extremely hot. if anything, carbon dioxide will prevent you burning, for example if you are on fire, because it removes some heat and stops oxygen getting to the fuel.

No, carbon dioxide itself cannot burn humans. However, exposure to high levels of carbon dioxide can lead to asphyxiation as it can displace oxygen in the air, leading to suffocation.
