I now present for you a few graphs. Make up your own mind.

Note the CO2 concentrations lag the temperature by about a thousand years in the first graph. This is not a problem as we were not around to affect things. The ice ages are caused by the Milankovitch cycle and then drive CO2 up as the Earth warms to have a positive feedback system.

Never in a very long time has the CO2 concentration got to these levels. We ignore this at our peril.
