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.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride are examples of greenhouse gases that do not occur naturally in the atmosphere but are produced through human activities, such as industrial processes and the use of certain products.
The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), fluorinated gases like hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). Water vapor is also a greenhouse gas, although it is not directly controlled by human activities.
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.
There are many gases which contribute to the greenhouse effect. Some are have a more potent effect than others. The following are considered to be greenhouse gases, the number after the name indicates the equivalent greenhouse gas effect compared to carbon dioxide (the principle man made greenhouse gas:Water vapour (H2O) = ?Carbon dioxide (CO2) = 1Methane (CH4) = 21Nitrous oxide (N2O) = 298Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6) = 22,200Chlorinated fluorocarbons (CFC's) = 1000 to 9000Notes:1. Water vapor is an odd one in the list as it is naturally occurring. It may be responsible for more than 30% of the greenhouse effect2. CFC's include many different compounds.
The chemical inside deodorant that can contribute to global warming is often a group known as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). These chemicals are potent greenhouse gases that can trap heat in the atmosphere and contribute to climate change.
CFC's deplete the ozone. Greenhouse gases are also responsible for it.
Carbon di oxide, methane, CFC to name a few
Materials depleting ozone are called ODS. They are CFC's and greenhouse gases.
CFC's are responsible. Greenhouse gases also deplete it.
There are many gases that cause "greenhouse effects". Water Vapour Carbon dioxide Methane Nitrous Oxide Ozone Chloroflourocarbons (CFC's) are just a few.
Industry is the place where the maximum ODS are released. Be it greenhouse gases or CFC's.
There are many causes of ozone damage. Some of them are UV, Greenhouse gases and CFC's.

Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, CFC's, and water vapor trap trap the heat in the Earth's atmosphere.
The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), fluorinated gases like hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). Water vapor is also a greenhouse gas, although it is not directly controlled by human activities.
CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons) are greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases hinder the Earth's release of heat. Heat then, is trapped in Earth - increasing the Earth's temperature. Therefore, it contributes to global warming.
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.
