While global warming may be due to human life styles or it may be part of a natural cycle, some believe that global warming is due to other sources, such as the Sun. Research put together by Swiss and German scientists show that the “Sun’s radiation is increasing” (www.telegraph.co.uk). By studying the energy output of the Sun, scientists were able to find that the Sun’s radiation increase could, on top of the issue with greenhouse gases, be a cause of global warming.

I like how you are focussing on a single issue at a time. However, I think you need to explain how the Sun's changes could affect global warming in more detail.
It is very interesting that there is such strong evidence of both natural and human causes of global warming. Are there many factors that can be attributed to both of these causes, if so how do these get divided in order to figure out statistics?
How does sun radiation increase?
Is it common for a star's radiation to increase?
So if the sun is another main cause of global warming how do we fix it? Or can we at all since we can't control the sun? We can attemp to fix our mistakes but the sun cannot, right?
What do you believe to be the greatest cause of global warming?
From my own research I learned that climate change occurs in a cycle. So will the Sun's radiation after a while stop increasing as well?
