The Earth had 10-20x more greenhouse gasses at times in its past than we have right now, and during those times, the Earth had numerous periods of extreme COOLING and warming and then cooling again and warming again, over and over.
The sun and oceans are at fault for it all. Hell, water vapor has a much greater effect on warming and cooling than greenhouse gases do anyways. It's not even a contest.
Humans have such and insignificant amount of influence on the climate, it's just silly to even suggest it.
Let me put it in perspective, if you take a mouse and place it on the 50 yard line of the Superdome, the mouse representing humans and the indoor stadium representing the Earth's atmosphere, and that mouse farted, this would be equivalent to the effect humans have made in all their existence to our atmosphere with regards to contributing to greenhouse gases.
And this can easily be backed up with facts and mathematics if necessary.

Human arrogance believing we can effect way more then we do is the true cause of "global warming"

quote:
Carbon dioxide has unique long-term effects on climate change that are largely "irreversible" for one thousand years after emissions stop (zero further emissions) even though carbon dioxide tends toward equilibrium with the ocean on a scale of 100 years. The greenhouse gases methane and nitrous oxide do not persist over time in the same way as carbon dioxide. Even if human carbon dioxide emissions were to completely cease, atmospheric temperatures are not expected to decrease significantly in the short term.
Even the smallest increases have large effects.
