What is an example of a solution made of gas dissolved in a gas?

Soft drink / soda pop, beer, the ocean. Soft drink and beer have carbon dioxide dissolved in it. When the can is opened we hear some of the gas escape but there is still lots left dissolved. The ocean dissolves oxygen and carbon dioxide. With out dissolved oxygen the fish would not be able to survive, with out dissolved carbon dioxide the crustaceans, corals and shell fish would not be able to make their shells etc. The amount of dissolved gas depends on temperature. The higher the temperature the less gas will dissolve. We know that opening a warm soft drink will quickly make the drink go 'flat'. Warm water can dissolve less gas.
