Hey .
Here is your answer.
Carbon dioxide controls temperature because the carbon dioxide molecules in the air absorb infrared radiation. The carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere are virtually transparent to the visible radiation that delivers the sun's energy to the earth.
But as the radiations responsible for heating i.e., infrared radiations are trapped by CO2 so it is hot when CO2 is around .
Thanks.
