That's not the question.
The real question is: are humans doing anything that is contributing to major climatological changes, and can we make the environment more stable if we stop doing those things.
It's not an all-or-nothing causation situation. It's a contributing factor situation. And all scientific evidence for the past several decades points to pollution as a major contributing factor.

The Earth has had ice ages, they were cooling periods, between them were warming periods. This has been going on for all of Earth’s 4 billion years. This all happened before any of the modern day came into being and will continue after we are gone.
The Earth is going through a pole shift right now. A pole shift is when the magnetic poles swap polarities. During pole shifts the magnetosphere is weaker and more of the Sun’s rays strike the Earth, this causes extra heating of the Earths surface, and makes global warming more pronounced.
These are natural cycles of the Earth. We puny stupid humans can no more stop or even reduce a natural cycle of the Earth, than the man in the moon. This is 9th grade science, and one would think that scientists and politicians would be better educated, but it seems that this not so, and they could remember 9th grade science class too.
This may just may be another smoke and mirrors propaganda campaign to cover our governments lies and con games. There are so many conspiracies running rampant it’s hard to tell which are real and which are just simple stupidity. The idea we can stop global warming IS stupidity at it’s highest form.

No and NO.....there has been many different times in history that a global warming has been in full swing....this is not the first time by far, and it will not be the last......did we help it along? Now that is a good question, maybe....but we did not cause it, and we can not stop it.....maybe delay the next one.......and that I am not so sure about

Yes we did and we can stop it, but idiots like bush need to stop thinking about there wallets and there rich buddies wallets and think more about the future repercussions of global warming. Do they not realize that all the money in the world will not stop there children from suffering as badly as the rest of the world is going to?

Yes humans caused it but it is too late to get it back like it was.We can help to heal it but it will never be the same as we have gone past the point of no return.

No (yawn) we might contribute to this but we do not have the power to create this nor do we have enough impact to stop it. This is a normal cycle just like the last time it got warmer and ended the ice age. ......so many idiots so little time. lmao :)~

Yes humans caused some of it, and we can slow it down but we can not reverse it.

the new ice age is inevitable, because the world has to go through them.
