You're right that IF the metal calorimeter and the styrofoam calorimeter were both perfect and behaved in the way that we usually pretend calorimeters do (they don't absorb or lose heat) then they should produce identical results, for the enthalpy reason you provide.
First, it doesn't reflect energy, it absorbs infrared. Most of the sun's energy is visible light, not infrared, and CO2 is transparent to visible, letting it pass down to the Earth's surface (like all the other gases). Once the Earth's surface heats up, it radiates infrared back toward space--that is what CO2 absorbs.
