They slow down the IR energy transmitted to space. Just another form of greenhouse gasses at work. Just like CO2 and Methane. I guess you don't understand how that works? This will help you out: Greenhouse gas en.wikipedia.org A greenhouse gas (abbrev. GHG) is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range. This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect. [1] The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Without greenhouse gases, the average temperature of Earth's surface would be about -18 °C (0 °F), [2] rather than the present average of 15 °C (59 °F). [3] [4] [5] In the Solar System, the atmospheres of Venus, Mars and Titan also contain gases that cause a greenhouse effect.
