They left off snow and vegetation cover. Snow reflects light, vegetation absorbs it. Increasing snow cover causes a runaway cooling back into reglaciation. Increasing plant cover with more CO2 to protect the plants against lack of water causes feedback warming. <<But what can be said for sure, is that the sun, the sea and the clouds are all very important >>

Clouds also do feedback and form at the dew point, so as earth cools, the dew point moves closer to the equator and forms a bigger area due to increased area at latitudes nearer the equator than the poles.

Earth cooled so much that for millions of years we have been in ice age with risk of Snowball Earth. Now interglacial and long may it last. But maybe only until 2020!! As predicted by Mq in October 2007.
