The solar argument is completely unproven, yes there are noticeable activity on Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and probably most of the other planets too, but the sun itself is not experiencing increased activity, thus the cause probably isn't solar. :p
If you can suggest another heat producing factor that is common to all the planets of the solar system I would like to hear it.
By the by, the measured increase is not a lot so I imagine that the corresponding solar increase would be very tiny(though this is of course speculation on my part)
