Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases that helps to keep earth warm.
Yes, solar radiation plays a key role in heating Earth's lower atmosphere. Sunlight passes through the atmosphere, warming the surface of the Earth, which in turn heats the air above it. This process helps create the temperature gradient that maintains the Earth's lower atmosphere warm.
Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun, allowing some of it to be absorbed by the Earth's surface. This process helps to keep the surface of the Earth warm by preventing the heat from escaping back into space.
Gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide and water vapor, trap heat from the sun in a process known as the greenhouse effect. These gases allow sunlight to enter the Earth's atmosphere and warm the planet, but trap some of the heat that would otherwise escape back into space. This helps maintain the Earth's temperature at a level suitable for life.
The natural greenhouse effect, helped by greenhouse gases and the carbon and water cycles of the earth keep the atmosphere warm. Greenhouse gases keep back some of the sun's heat so it doesn't radiate back out to space. This has kept the earth warm for millions of years.
This process is known as the greenhouse effect. The Earth's surface absorbs sunlight and re-emits it as heat energy, which gets trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This process helps to keep the Earth warm enough to support life.
Ozone helps to keep the atmosphere warm. And it blocks majority of the sun's radiation.

The sun warms the earth. The heat (energy) from the earth then heats the air.
The atmosphere helps keep earth's surface warm, but does not generate heat itself. The earth is warmed primarily by solar radiation (heat from the sun), and to a lesser extent by the slow decay of long lived heavy isotopes within earth's mantle and core.

Yes, it is very important. It helps keep the atmosphere warm.
The two main greenhouse gases that help keep the Earth's atmosphere warm and livable are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O). These gases trap heat from the sun, which helps maintain a stable climate for supporting life on Earth.

Aside from the sun, one thing that helps keep the earth warm is something called the "heat of fusion" not to be confused with nuclear fusion, as the earth's core and mantle slowly solidify, turning from a liquid into a solid, heat is released in the same way that heat is released when water turns from a liquid to a solid. On geological scales, this process helps keep the earth's interior warm.
