Of course that's not the sole reason for global warming, I don't think it has anything to do with it. The intensity of the sun varies during the eleven year sunspot cycle, but also can vary as much as 2-6% over the course of centuries. This fluctuation was probably responsible for the mini ice age between 1645 & 1715. The current rise in the solar constant is at least partially responsible for global warming, along with many other factors.
Cool pic, BTW!
