Ozone is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms and is naturally present in the atmosphere in small amounts. It plays an important role in absorbing harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun. However, ozone is not a greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere and contribute to the warming of the planet.
