True, the amount of energy a solar flare creates is very little than that of the entire sun, but we're talking about that solar flare's affects when hitting our atmosphere directly. The sun however doesn't hit our atmosphere directly unless it is through a CME. If you're going to continue this debate please speed up your pace. You're still behind and have yet to argue the point I mentioned earlier about Forbush Decrease.
Then why have we spent the last couple of days debating them? You cited articles about the sun and it's proton discharges, but skipped the issues of other particles hitting our planet, and now you have no opinion? Hopefully you know those protons are waves that are part of cosmic rays and you're not just blinded by light being a particle.
