Solar activity (or the lack thereof), the earth's axial tilt (obliquity), it's precession, orbital eccentricity and external celestial forces as well as any ongoing volcanic activity all play roles in climate change over time. Obviously the percentages of the various elements and compounds composing the atmosphere play a part although the role of variations in carbon dioxide concentrations is not yet understood. At present sheer speculations about such changes are running rampant and being utilized to advance and attack various interests.
