Doesn't look like enough to be responsible for recent climate change

From the news release at your link:

"Although the inferred increase of solar irradiance in 24 years, about 0.1 percent, is not enough to cause notable climate change, the trend would be important if maintained for a century or more. "

More study is needed, certainly, but don't wait until the horse is already way out of the barn before thinking it might be a good idea to close the door.
