An electric charge being accelerated radiates energy. This includes

around the Sun, shouldn't it constantly radiate electromagnetic
energy?

Does an electrically neutral atom under acceleration radiate?
Are not planets made of atoms?

Let me rephrase my question: a neutral particle does not radiate
energy. But an atom is not a neutral particle, it is rather like a
dipole, with positive and negative charges oscillating at a small
distance. Shouldn't they then radiate? If not, why?
