False

Not all absorbed radiation is absorbed in the stratosphere. Different wavelengths are absorbed in different layers: e.g. ozone in the stratosphere absorbs most harmful UV, greenhouse gases and clouds in the troposphere absorb much infrared and some solar, and the thermosphere/ionosphere absorb extreme UV and X‑rays.
