Dear Shailesh Kumar,
As is known, the CO2 may be in a liquid state at temperatures from -56.6 ° C to -78.5 ° C at a pressure of about 1000 hPa (mean surface pressure). Such conditions on the surface of the atmosphere almost never exist, except for very rare in some parts of northern Siberia (Russia) and Antarctica (South Pole). At the top of the troposphere and at the beginning of the stratosphere there are such low temperatures, but there is the pressure of a very small. Therefore, for liquid CO2 should be even lower temperature. Also, CO2 has no liquid state at pressures below 5200 hPa. So great pressure does not exist anywhere in the Earth's atmosphere.
The answer to your question is that CO2 in atmospheric conditions rarely almost never exist in liquid phase.
