A. Chlorofluorocarbon

B. Methane

C. Carbone dioxide

D. Hydrogen

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Hydrogen is not a greenhouse gas.
A greenhouse gas (GHG or GhG) is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range, causing the greenhouse effect. The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and ozone (O3).
Hydrogen does not have a direct effect on climate. Instead, it affects other pollutants like methane which is a prominent greenhouse gas.
