•CO2 can reversibly change rheological properties of aqueous solutions.•CO2-responsiveness of carbomer is reported for the first time.•Arginine, as a kind of biomolecule, also has CO2-responsive groups. Environmentally responsive intelligent viscoelastic fluids have been used in many fields in recen...
