Ecology - Environmental IssuesHow do the carbon dioxide molecules contribute to global warming They absorb infrared radiation emitted from the Earth and redistribute it in different directions over the Earth s surface Carbon dioxide naturally emits heat energy The large number of carbon dioxide molecules in the atmosphere creates a layer surrounding Earth They react with other greenhouse gases to cause an exothermic reaction generating heat
