A reducing atmosphere is a type of environment characterized by a low concentration of oxygen and a high concentration of reducing agents, such as hydrogen or methane. In a reducing atmosphere, chemical reactions tend to favor the addition of electrons to atoms or molecules, which typically facilitates the formation of complex organic molecules. Reducing atmospheres are often discussed in the context of Earth's early atmosphere or in the study of extraterrestrial environments.
