Of course the sun is a factor, but unless you can show a change in output, or sun spots, it’s not a factor in climate change, and no such correlation has been shown, but increased Co2 levels track just fine.

I’m not a chemist, but CO2 solubility in water actually decreases with increasing temperature CO2 Solubility. Since the oceans are a large CO2 sink, they would tend to release CO2 as they warmed. This could suggest that the cause of rising CO2 concentrations is due to warming, rather than the cause of warming is due to rising CO2 concentrations (increasing CO2 lags behind increasing temperature). Just a thought…
