It is preferential to refrain from the utilization of sesquipedalian
verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualization can be
verbalized
using compararatively simplistic lexicographical entitities.

What a shock. Global warming is caused by the Sun getting hotter....

"the sun cannot be responsible for all the climate changes we have
seen in the past 50 years or so"

"Dr David Viner, the senior research scientist at the University of
East Anglia's climatic research unit, said the research showed that
the sun did have an effect on global warming."

[
He added, however, that the study also showed that over the past 20
years the number of sunspots had remained roughly constant, while the
Earth's temperature had continued to increase.

This suggested that over the past 20 years, human activities such as
the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation had begun to dominate
"the natural factors involved in climate change", he said.

Dr Gareth Jones, a climate researcher at the Met Office, said that Dr
Solanki's findings were inconclusive because the study had not
incorporated other potential climate change factors.

"Climate change denial, as David Bellamy’s claims show, is based on
pure hocus pocus"

The effects of global warming due to incereased CO2 levels
are added to any possible warming due to solar effects G.
Matters are just made worse.
