Explain that infrared radiation is absorbed by C=O, OH and CH
bonds in CO 2, H 2 O and CH 4, and this contributes to global
warming. Explain that the greenhouse effect of a given gas is
dependent both on its atmospheric concentration and its ability to
absorb infrared radiation. Week 27 Pearson Education Ltd 2008 This
