Carbon dioxide; lower than.

Explanation:

Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of coldness or hotness of a physical object. It is measured with a thermometer and its units are Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Fahrenheit (°F).

Radiation is simply the transmission or emission of energy in the form of particles or electromagnetic waves through a vacuum, material medium or space.

Earth’s atmosphere helps to regulate its temperature. However, the addition of gases such as carbon dioxide causes more energy to radiate back toward Earth. As a result, the atmospheric temperature increases over time. If Earth had no atmosphere, it would radiate nearly as much energy as it receives from the Sun. This implies that the temperatures on Earth would be lower than Earth’s current temperature.
