Carbon in the atmosphere is in the form of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, and this is removed largely by photosynthesis, from growing plants and trees.

The Greenhouse Effect.
Yes, gas is a noun. Greenhouse here is an adjective describing 'gas'. Together they make a noun phrase, 'Greenhouse gas'.
Nitrous Oxide is the third greenhouse gas.........
No, Ammonia is not considered a greenhouse gas.
A greenhouse gas is a gas in the atmosphere that takes in and releases radiation. The greenhouse effect is more of a process in which radiation is emitted in different directions after being absorbed by greenhouse gases.
Natural gas is a greenhouse gas, methane, and when it is burnt it releases the other greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
The short answer is no, denitrification is actually favorable to farming. When farmers fertilize fields, most of the nitrogen is lost to groundwater or streams. The farm is responsible for where that nitrogen ultimately ends up (excess nitrogen causes depleted water quality downstream). Denitrification naturally removes nitrogen from groundwater, soils, and streams. This process does have a downside, though. It can produce nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas. Although denitrification removes nitrogen from water, it can also release a greenhouse gas to the atmosphere. Scientists are studying when more nitrous oxide is released and how that can be managed.
Yes, ozone is a greenhouse gas. Any gas with three or more atoms in their molecule are greenhouse gases.
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) destroy ozone.
Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas. It deceases the greenhouse gases.
