re: Climate change and the CO2 produced by volcano's

We should be in a cooling trend right now, but the indisputable evidence is that the atmosphere is warming and at an accelerating rate.
I see some people asking for evidence and this should provide anything you could want. I have a good friend who is Republican and very conservative. She is also a physicist and conducts climate research (including years in Antarctica). She has no doubt that human-caused climate change is real.

The most important question you should ask yourself is "what if I'm wrong?"
If it's the 95% of scientists, then we've spent a bit more money and end up with cleaner air and water and energy independence. If it's climate deniers, there's 215 feet of sea level rise stored in the ice caps - is that a risk you want to take?

What risk?
If something is far from our ability what risk is there?

I give some more recent global history known as the Eocene Epoch. You should probably educate yourself about how much warmer it was then, than now. A mere 50 million years ago.
If you really want to stretch your brain, the Silurian and Ordovician cooling/warming.
When you do, perhaps you'll discover why a little warming is hardly the catastrophe you imagine.
Like most of your ilk, you seem to think global temperature history began 200 years or so ago with the invention of the thermometer.
It didn't.
