This link gives an exhaustive treatment about the effects of solar radiation with regards to the cycles of global warming and cooling over the last several thousand, and tens of thousand years. I am reproducing the link, and not the body of the text because the original article contains several interesting charts and graphs that would not be transferred if I just copied the article itself. This article, I think, puts the whole "Global Warming" debate in context. Read it, follow the course of it's evidence and logic and decide for yourself what it all means. Here's the link.

Hi,
Without the impact of solar radiation, the temperature on the earth would be about the same as the temperature of space, which is about -454 F. The amount of radiation reaching the earth is about 1,368 watts per square meter. This is a vast amount of energy, which would require the simultaneous output of 1.7 billion of our largest power plants to match. About 70 percent of this solar energy is absorbed and 30 percent is reflected. However, the amount of solar energy reaching the earth is not constant, but varies in several independent cycles of different degrees of magnitude, which may or may not reinforce each other.

This all about the Solar systems.You tried very well.
Thanks for giving such a nice information.
