You will need a Schengen tourist visa to visit France. Since France is your primary destination, you should apply at the nearest French consulate, which in your case is right there in Atlanta. The French Schengen visa will allow you to travel to all Schengen countries, including France and the Netherlands. As a US Green Card holder you do not need a visa to transit through the airport unless you want to leave the transit area, so you won't need a visa on your outbound trip.
