A paper published in Science by the esteemed geologist Dr. Gerard Bond and colleagues finds that "Earth’s climate system is highly sensitive to extremely weak perturbations in the Sun’s energy output, not just on the decadal scales that have been investigated previously, but also on the centennial to millennial time scales." Dr. Bond was the discoverer of the 1,500 year natural climate cycle that bears his name ["Bond Events"]. Dr. Bond and coauthors find that tiny changes in solar activity can be greatly amplified by changes in stratospheric ozone & temperature, and result in significant changes in the thermohaline circulation [global ocean oscillations]. The IPCC, however, ignores these and other amplifying mechanisms [clouds for example] to conveniently assume the Sun cannot be responsible for recent climate change.
The paper by Bond et al shows tiny 0.25% variations in solar activity over the past 3000 years are responsible for temperature swings of up to ~3C in the North Atlantic [Sargasso Sea] and ~3.5C at the Greenland Summit.
