Old Stuff
The sun emits sunlight (see solar variation). Not much effect on global air temperature
 * 1) More sunlight - moving at 300,000 km/s
 * 2) More incoming solar irradiance receives by the earth varies

Sunspots follow a well-known 11-year solar cycle. Svensmark and others have proposed the following cause-and-effect mechanism; Seems to correlate strongly with global air temperature (but this is disputed)
 * 1) Increase in sunspot number (see Wolf Number)
 * 2) Increase in the solar wind - changed particles moving at 400 km/s to 900 km/s
 * 3) Decrease in cosmic rays hitting the earth
 * 4) Decrease in low-level cloud formation
 * 5) Increase in air temperature
