[quote:Anonymous Coward 21201441:MV8yMTI3MjM3XzM1OTIwNzYwXzVENzY3OEVB] I heard this a while back - that scientists knew that at least 30% or more of the heating issue was caused by the sun, not the environmental factors - but they did not want to broadcast this fact because they didn't want people to think that they could relax on environmental issues and just get lazy about it - since that is still a factor and could be made worse.

(Fox News) The Earth has been getting warmer — but how much of that heat is due to greenhouse gas emissions and how much is due to natural causes?
A leaked report by a United Nations’ group dedicated to climate studies says that heat from the sun may play a larger role than previously thought.
“[Results] do suggest the possibility of a much larger impact of solar variations on the stratosphere than previously thought, and some studies have suggested that this may lead to significant regional impacts on climate,” reads a draft copy of a major, upcoming report from the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
The man who leaked the report, StopGreenSuicide blogger Alec Rawls, told FoxNews.com that the U.N.’s statements on solar activity were his main motivation for leaking the document.
