For the answer to the question above asking t he air in the atmosphere circulates mainly because the convection is redistributing heat.

the energy released when water vapor condenses to form liquid droplets. - If the water vapor condenses back to a liquid or solid phase onto a surface, the latent energy absorbed during evaporation is released as sensible heat onto the surface.

Green house gasses. Greenhouses are structures designed to retain heat. The earth's "greenhouse effect" is what makes this planet suitable for life as we know it.
