What happens when the temperature of $CO_2$ at its critical temperature of $30.98 \, ^\circ C$ is increased or decreased?

Gases possess characteristic critical temperature which depends upon the magnitude of intermolecular forces between the particles. Following are the critical temperatures of some gases.
$Gases$$H_2$$He$$O_2$$N_2$
$Critical \ temperature \ (K)$$33.2$$5.3$$154.3$$126$
