Solar energy, direct from the sun, warms the earth. This is good, because the earth is thus warm enough for life.
In the past, before we started adding amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, there was an energy balance. Enough warmth came in, and enough escaped back out to space, to keep the temperature stable. Now, by the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide (CO2), we are stopping some of this heat escaping to space, and the earth is warming.
Solar energy, captured on rooftops, and turned into electricity, is good for the environment and it slows global warming, because the electricity is clean, with no carbon dioxide emissions. Any electricity generated by PV panels means that less has to be generated by burning coal and oil.
A:Solar Energy does actually prevent global warming because it produces electricity without going through the process of burning fossil fuels (which is the most common reason for global warming). Not only does it generate electricity, it also:heats water
purifies water
heats air
cooks
tells time
So all these everyday-actions can be done without burning any fossil fuels
Solar flares can affect Earth periodically but their frequency varies based on the solar cycle, which typically lasts about 11 years. During periods of high solar activity, such as solar maximum, there can be an increase in the frequency of solar flares impacting Earth. However, Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field provide protection, and the impact of solar flares on the planet is usually limited to disruptions in radio communications and satellite operations.

Sunspots are darker, cooler regions on the Sun's surface associated with strong magnetic fields. Changes in sunspot activity can impact the amount of solar radiation reaching Earth, which in turn can affect our climate. Higher sunspot activity can lead to increased solar radiation, potentially contributing to warming of the Earth's surface, while lower activity can have the opposite effect.
The sun has the potential to affect life on Earth in various ways, such as through solar flares and changes in solar activity that can impact our technology and climate. However, it is highly unlikely that the sun would completely wipe out all life on Earth.
The sun goes through a solar activity cycle known as the solar cycle or solar magnetic activity cycle. This 11-year cycle involves changes in the sun's magnetic field, sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections. These changes can affect space weather and impact Earth's magnetic field and communications systems.
It is challenging to identify any human activity that does not affect the Earth system in some way. However, simple personal activities such as sleeping or sitting quietly may have minimal direct impact on the broader Earth system.
In the words of bekey "As the sun spot activity increases, the Earth tends to warm up. Conversely as sun spot decreases the Earth tends to cool a bit."
Solar phenomena such as solar flares and sunspots can impact climate change on Earth by influencing the amount of solar radiation reaching the Earth's atmosphere. Changes in solar activity can affect the Earth's temperature and climate patterns. Additionally, variations in the sun's energy output can have a long-term impact on the planet's climate.

Examples of solar activity include solar flares, sunspots, coronal mass ejections, and solar wind. These phenomena can have effects on Earth's magnetic field, technology, and space weather.
Surface features of the sun, such as sunspots and solar flares, can impact Earth's magnetosphere and ionosphere, causing disruptions in communication systems and power grids. Increased solar activity can also lead to the intensification of the auroras at the poles. Additionally, variations in the sun's ultraviolet radiation can affect Earth's climate and ozone layer.

No, it only effects parts of earth. Earthquakes don't affect the whole solar system. That's why they call them earthquakes. Because they happen on the earth and the earth only.
