Almost immediately (nanoseconds) they relax from their excited state by either 1) emitting that energy as a new photon, some of which will continue up towards space, some of which will go back downward to be reabsorbed, thus keeping the energy in the atmosphere longer, or 2) by colliding with another gas molecule, most likely an O2 (oxygen) or N2 (nitrogen) molecule since they make up over 98 % of the atmosphere, thereby converting the extra vibrational energy into kinetic energy by transferring it to the other gas molecule, which will then collide with other molecules, and so on, making the air warmer.

Petra December 16, 2012 at 2:12 am said:» That oxygen and nitrogen may insulate the earth against some cooling, does not preclude greenhouse gasses from being warmed by IR»
That oxygen and nitrogen may insulate the earth against some cooling, does not preclude greenhouse gasses from being warmed by IR.

If you're actually thinking about what I've just said, you'll realise that the real world's greenhouse gases are predominantly nitrogen and oxygen, they are the bulk of our atmosphere and act like a blanket delaying the escape of heat from the surface..
The minus - 18 °C figure quoted by AGWScienceFiction fisics in its fake Greenhouse Effect energy budget, has been stolen from real physics where it refers to the Earth without any atmosphere at all, and that is predominantly nitrogen and oxygen.
In the real greenhouse which is our whole fluid real gas atmosphere which has volume, weight and attraction and is subject to gravity, the some 99 % nitrogen and oxygen dry air is what acts as a blanket keeping the Earth's heat from escaping too fast before the Sun again heats the surface, without water the Earth's temperature would be 67 °C not 15 °C — think deserts.
For example, misappropriating the concept of blanket warming from the real gases responsible, nitrogen and oxygen, to claim it is the «greenhouse gases».
Without water our nitrogen and oxygen real heavy gas atmosphere stops the Earth from losing the Sun's warming too quickly before it's warmed again.
The heat from the ground is COLLECTED by oxygen & nitrogen; reason when is windy, cooling is more efficient - > that heat makes them to expand and on the way up, to waste that heat.

What we have are ensembles in which the various components (sunlight, thermal radiation, oxygen, nitrogen, water, greenhouse gases, etc.) and their various energy modes (translational, rotational, vibrational, directional, polarisation, chemical, etc.) all have slightly different thermodynamic temperatures (except for the incoming, scattered and reflected sunlight, which has a radically different temperature from the rest).
Hence carbon dioxide molecules have a cooling role radiating away that thermal energy which they acquire from oxygen and nitrogen molecules that can not radiate themselves.
