Yes, we can't do anything about the Sun and its energy output. It affects the Earth much more than anything humans have ever done or will ever do.
The timeline for global warming does correspond with the industrial age, but there is no direct proof of causality.
We'd have to wait hundreds of years for more data.
We do have core samples and tree rings which correlate with sunspot numbers and show amounts of CO2, etc.
I brought in politics because this really has become a political debate when governments put regulations on air quality, automobiles, etc. But since the main cause of global warming is the Sun, then these laws are really meaningless.
