Greenhouse gases are not really found in a layer. Greenhouse gases are generally distributed, with the only exception of ozone itself. A greenhouse gas is any gas that is comprised of three or more atoms. Common in our atmosphere are: water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone and a few more at very low levels. Greenhouse gases work by letting energetic light pass (say from the Sun), then not allowing infrared through without absorbing and scattering it.

What is the difference between CFC and greenhouse gases?
Greenhouse gasses refers to all types of gas that trap heat. CFC is a particular type of gas most commonly found in old refrigerators, air-conditioners and also spray cans. These are detrimental to the ozone layer.
Are all CFCs greenhouse gasses?
No, not all chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are greenhouse gases. While CFCs do contribute to ozone layer depletion and are potent greenhouse gases, some CFCs like CFC-12 primarily affect the ozone layer and have a negligible impact on global warming.
What do you called it destroys the atmosphere that surrounds the earth?
The destruction of the atmosphere that surrounds Earth is often referred to as atmospheric degradation or pollution. This can be caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming and ozone depletion.
What is a greenhouse gas that exclusively anthropogenic?
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are greenhouse gases that are entirely made by human endeavors. All other greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane CH4, etc occur in nature as well as being produced by man.
Does CFC's cause Global warming?
Actually CFCs (Chlorofluorocarbons) don't do much to cause global warming. CFCs destroy ozone, and may cause problems concerning the UV rays coming through the atmosphere. Global warming has to do with carbon dioxide levels and temperature.
What is the difference between the ozone layer and greenhouse gases?
Ozone layer protects us from UV rays. Greenhouse gases cause global warming.
How is ozone layer linked or related to pollution?
The ozone is depleted due to greenhouse gases. Pollution causes these greenhouse gases.
How are ozone and greenhouse gases alike?
Ozone is a greenhouse gas. However there is little connection between the greenhouse effect and the ozone layer.
What gases contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer?
Gases are many that can contribute to ozone. Greenhouse gases to be mentioned here.
What in greenhouse gases are bad for the ozone?
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are greenhouse gases that are harmful to the ozone layer. When released into the atmosphere, they break down ozone molecules and contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer, leading to increased exposure to harmful UV radiation.
How do wildfires affect the ozone layer?
Yes they do. they release greenhouse gases which affect ozone.
What group of air pollutant gases destroy the stratosperic ozone layer?
Greenhouse gases destroy ozone. They can cause ozone depletion.
What is the fuel use to affect ozone layer?
Fuels release greenhouse gases. These gases can cause ozone depletion.
How does minimizing rocket flights protect the ozone layer?
Rocket fuel contain greenhouse gases which cause ozone depletion. Minimizing them will do benefit.
What types of greenhouse gases affect the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is believed to have issues with CFC's. Water vapor, the most common greenhouse gas, also affects the levels of ozone in our atmosphere. The issue of greenhouse gases though, is not normally connected to the concept of ozone depletion.
Do greenhouse gases affect the ozone layer?
yes they do. They both are related.
What materials are depleting your ozone layer?
Materials depleting ozone are called ODS. They are CFC's and greenhouse gases.
