Snow, ice, and clouds have high albedos (typically from 0.7 to 0.9) and reflect more energy than they absorb. Earthâs average albedo is about 0.3. In other words, about 30 percent of incoming solar radiation is reflected back into space and 70 percent is absorbed. A sensor aboard NASAâs Terra satellite is now collecting detailed measurements of how much sunlight the earthâs surface reflects back up into the atmosphere.
The solar radiation that reaches Earth acts as its main source of energy in several ways. It warms the Earth's surface, regulating weather systems and providing a habitable environment for its lifeforms to thrive in. The sun's interactions with Earth generate raindrops, which in turn provide hydropower. People have evolved to see objects when light is present. Without the light energy from the sun, this would not be possible. Solar energy powers the resources people and animals need to survive. It generates hydrocarbons like oil and gas, and it is a source of renewable energy. Without it, life on Earth would not flourish.
