The correct answer is the first choice: Factor 1 and factor 2 are considered natural factors.

Explanation

The causes of global climate change are those factors that have an impact in our planet's climate. They may be either anthropogenic or natural.

Anthropogenic means generated (induced) by the human being, i.e. by the activities that we the humans perform, e.g. industry, automotive transportation, household waste, deforastation, use of fossil fuels.

Natural causes are product of the nature's cycles or events, such as the amount of energy that the Sun radiate, the volcanic activity, the natural cooling and warming of the air from the ocean, and glacial changes due to ice ages.

Hence the two factors stated in the question, volcanic eruptions and changes in the amount of Sun’s heat received by the Earth’s atmosphere and surface are considered natural factors.
