No. A mirrored surface on the ground might reflect light and heat back out of the atmosphere and so very slightly reduce global warming. However, there are not enough mirrors to have any significant effect.

Why is solar power considered to be not harmful to the environment?
Basically all living things on Earth live on Solar Power (the energy from sunlight). Plants use this energy in Photosynthesis to make Sugars and it is this Sugar that is the basis of the food chain. So the environment itself includes solar power. Man has also been able to collect sunlight using mirrors and or PV systems to generate electricity. The advertisement is that doing this is not harmful to the environment because the electricity comes from the sunlight rather than by burning fossil fuels. HOWEVER, one should examine this claim with care, the Mirrors and PV systems (wires, transformers etc) all take fossil fuel to make and their use (except on house roofs an in barren desert areas) takes away the sunlight that plants need to grow. So the claim that solar power is not harmful to the environment is FALSE - it is just perhaps less harmful that burning fossil fuels.
