Historically atmospheric CO2 conc was changed by the temp... not the other way around.

People ignore this in their arguments. The environmental scientists I work with believe that solar activity has by far the greatest impact on the earth's climate fluctuations. CO2 levels change based on the temperature. There is nothing we can do to control the sun. The argument that we are controlling the earth's temperature with the percent of CO2 we produce is akin to someone claiming that making their lawn wet caused it to rain.
