If I run my AC on solar power, do I still contribute to climate change because less light is reflected into spage and instead remain on earth as heat?

What about wind power? That would effectively convert kinetic wind energy to heat, thus also increasing heat on earth.

Even nuclear would generate heat from energy otherwise bound in the nucleus, right?
