So, according to "skeptical science" there is only one factor we need to consider regarding climate change. The increase of CO2 in the atmosphere.

Sorry, I dont buy that. The Sun very clearly has an effect on climate, and those effects are seen in the cycles of the sun. We have the 11 year cycle, the complete 22 year cycle and fractional multiples (such as 3/2) of the full 22 year cycle.

and we have the Maunder minimum replay coming up for the next few decades.

The idiots at "skeptical science" have gone to great pains to dismiss all of that. The evidence is plain though and it goes way back.

What goes up comes back down, and what goes down comes back up. It's all to do with the fourth power law. If you take the fourth power of 278K, 279K and 280K (temperature of the Earth in degrees Kelvin) you get the idea. One degree out from normality and the Earth will be Heating up or Cooling back down to counterbalance to the fourth power of any temperature anomaly. Unless the solar output changes, or the Earth distance from the Sun changes, or the Albedo.

Is that right?... but as (supposedly) the CO2 only effects the Earths climate, the Sun and it's relationship to Earth is locked in as an absolute constant.

You also think, along with the rest of the "warmers", that CO2 effects Albedo (from what ever processes) more and independently more than any other factor ?

That is why I dont buy that theory as things stand. Interesting to see what the weather is going to do next. Something we Brits are forever talking about -g-
