The greenhouse effect is the name given to a process occurring naturally that insulates the earth against the loss of heat into space. The greenhouse effect is necessary for life to exist on earth and is not a problem in itself. It is the increased greenhouse effect, which is the result of increased greenhouse gas emissions, that creates problems in the form of increased global warming. The greenhouse effect is not the same as the hole in the ozone layer, although CFC gases contribute to both phenomena.
