How ozone layer protects the earth?

ozone is the chemical in our atmoshere that traps heat from the sun. It acts as a greenhouse, sunlight can come in but it can't go out. Ozone protects Earth by keeping it warm. Ozone is a protectant in the upper atmospere but if found in the lower atmoshere where we live, it is poisonous. Global Warming is caused by having to much ozone in the atmoshere. So in some ways ozone protects Earth by keeping it warm, but it could be a danger to Earth by keeping it too warm.
