carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases match with infrared photons

Just as oxygen gas prefers the dark red photons,carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases match with infrared photons.They provide the right amount of energy to shift the gas molecules into their higher energy level.Shortly after a carbon dioxide molecule absorbs an infrared photon,it will fall back to its previous energy level,and spit a photon back out in a random direction.Some of that energy then returns to Earth's surface,causing warming.The more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,the more likely that infrared photons will land back on Earth and change our climate.
