If you consider the slide of Atmospheric Absorbance of incident energy, you will note for example that it is not even possible for '90% of sunlight' to even reach the surface, let alone be 'bounced back into space by ice'.
The 'colour' of water will not alter the available energy from that incident Radiation either; the atmosphere blocks all but a small portion still. Even as the water is warmed however (by any interactions possible BY water in its liquid form or soluted molecules there in present), the liquid will display turbulence and limit the amount of kinetic energy that remains to be measured then as 'temperature'.
It is also that this incident radiation is NOT 'Heat' even, another misnomer fostered within the "Media Release' reporting used by 'climate science'.
'Heat' is a measure (on a scale it is labeled 'Temperature') of the average kinetic energy (represented by their velocity) of the atoms/molecules of the sample, another style of measure of this energy being 'Pressure'.
The Photons representing the energy of the Radiation are only within the bounds of the region of the Atmosphere, but are not themselves the atoms/molecules of the atmosphere, and so cannot be included in any regarding of 'temperature' or 'pressure'.
You will note also that the median Temperature of the surface is produced in the Land surface if you consider the chart below, with the liquid of the Oceans following a muted trend led by the Land Surface.
The delay (around 15 years it seems still) is the time lag for the processes of Conduction and Convection to produce an OBVIOUS effect in the transport of induced kinetic energy from the Land surface to the Ocean. The muting of the trend of 'temperature rise' within the Oceans is due to the processes of Turbulence available with the liquid. These effects are cumulative also.
Notice also please the link to Human Population there in indicated, with referenced placement on the Curve projection OF that population. Then notice please the third slide, the geographical Density of Human Population, as at 1994.
It is the disposition of Humanity and its alterations to the surface PREVIOUS to 1994 that we are NOW observing. What is YET to be observed will be due to the KNOWN alterations, due to Humanities sprawling production of Habitat, from 1994 until NOW. Again I would mention that cumulative manner of these effects.
References for these slides are contained in the URL given.
There is little altering 'light bulbs' will achieve, little that can be achieved by the remediations proposed by the "Kyoto Treaty" and little to validly involve any 'blame' of 'oil companies' that has any validity in the reality we all face.
It seems that the need to have & own 'property' is producing the 'blinding glare', not the need to drive a car.
