what rubbish, all the relevant research (meaning research carried out by people not getting paid by green activists and tax hungry government departments) suggests that human CO2 emmissions are so low (relatively speaking) when compared to natural production as to be negligible, and to counter the inevitable 'but accumulatively' argument we only have to look at volcano eruptions, the average volcano eruption produces a million times the amount of CO2 produced by all human activities from when they began to present day, so if 'accumulatively' our emissions could make such a big difference, then one single volcano eruption would cause immediate and irreparable damage to our atmosphere, raising the global temperature to deadly levels, HAS THIS HAPPENED?
No, put simply, we humans ARE to blame for global warming trends, but not because of our use of fossil fuels (since these are too low to cause damage) but because we cut down the only thing stopping this gas from building up in the atmosphere, TREES, deforestation is what is causing global warming not industry, not cars, stop deforestation, plant more trees, stop global warming!!!
That said - more trees, less oil, more human ingenuity instead of the status quo - all of these are needed.
