Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is also an important greenhouse gas. It has a long lifetime in Earth's atmosphere. Carbon dioxide strongly absorbs energy with a wavelength of 15 μm (micrometers). ... Methane (CH4) is 30 times stronger than carbon dioxide as an absorber of infrared radiation

so the correct answer is infrared radiation
