The question probably refers to "greenhouse" gases rather than green ice gases. Greenhouse gases are a group of gases in the atmosphere that tend to prevent heat escaping from the Earth.

The best known are carbon dioxide and methane although water vapor is also one of them, even if not usually recognized as such.
