    If only it was that easy berretta.

    Using your knowledge of science you would realise that the NASA article is about a recent Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) interacting with the upper atmosphere. This is very different to the phenomena known as the Greenhouse Effect. CME's or solar wind are charged particles (protons and electrons) ejected from the Sun and totals a very small percentage of the Sun's emitted energy budget in comparison to the electromagnetic radiation emitted that is responsible for heating the Earth. An even smaller fraction of this reaches the Earth, as because the particles are charged they are blocked by the Earth's magnetosphere. Only very large events can penetrate and interact with the atmosphere in a significant way (auroras are the main manifestation).

    So can you answer me this berretta? How can an article that is not about the greenhouse effect invalidate it? I am keen to hear how you rationalise this.

    Any of you guys who gave it the thumbs up are free to step in and answer the above question too.
