I honestly think both. Human impact plays a large role in it all. Pollution, CFCs, lead, all emitted into the air in the past century. It's amazing to look at what devastation this has all done to our world. But, the humans on the world affect the natural causes. The pollution in the air contributes to a hole in the ozone layer and makes not only more gamma rays penetrate us, but more heat affecting earth. Because of that, glaciers melting off of the polar ice caps adds 200% more water to the earth than 10 years ago. This means, less salinity in the water. The Gulf Stream is affected by the amount of salt in the water. It flows throughout the world and gives off the needed temperature based on the salinity of the water. Without that, we no longer recieve any warmth and we are flung into an ice age for the 21st century. Now, everyone knows that Earth has gone through an Ice Age before. The causes, we're not really sure. But, we assume that they did not have the same technology we have today to contribute as much to the world being that way. So, I think the Earth puts itself into an ice age to readjust natural climate changes thrown out of whack before (why do you think natural disasters happen)? It could very well be a natural cycle the earth takes. Meaning, the earth tries to wipe out the human population purposely to fix itself. It's really up to you to decide. But, the cosmos also have a lot to do with it. The moon keeps us on our axis, it moves farther away from us (only by an inch and a half, but after a while that's a lot of miles). So without the axis, we no longer have seasons. Since the moon is starting to come farther out of our orbit and gravitational force, we are losing clear climate definitions. Making things much warmer, and other things accountable for global warming. But, either way, we see an ill fate ahead of us, man made or not. We'll either go into an ice age or we'll become another Mars in our solar system. We have no choice, but it will happen.

I definitely think its a natural cycle, these events have happened throughout history: the ice age, separating of the continents etc. I somehow doubt these events were caused by SUVS and factories. I think "global warming " is a product of earth's evolutionary process and not caused by humans although we may have sped up the process slightly.
I am not condoning the use of SUVS especially if you live in Suburbia.

all and sundry, at the same time with Al Gore, believes that all people previous climate differences have been as a results of organic reasons. those people even have confidence that some destiny climate differences would be as a results of organic reasons. So i think of you extremely mean to ask if every physique believes that the climate substitute envisioned interior the close to destiny would be as a results of organic reasons. nicely, it remains a destiny climate substitute. No substantial substitute has taken place yet. people who say the substitute has already started are leaping the gun i think of. the genuine question would be, if the climate does substitute the way that folk who're using guy-made reasons to make the prediction are saying it is going to, might that convince those that the reason became extremely guy-made? i think of that would convince maximum, yet no longer all, the doubters. some people do no longer even have confidence the Earth is around!

Both, I think humans are making the cycle start sooner then it would happen, but humans can't be blamed for the ice age, so why blame us for the global warming ...age.

It's the result of human impact, but why do you have this question in the TV section?

I would say human impact even though cows methane has alot to do with it apparently.
