I guess what I’m trying to say is…Sun spots are on a 22 year cycle. Those affect mini ice ages and green cycles. The earth also ‘wobbles’ on its axis as opposed to purely spinning. The interaction of the sun spot cycles and ‘wobble’ creates what may appear as random climate cycles in the short term but are part of a slower , more gradual ebb and flow when you ‘zoom’ out. According to ice cores , CO2 during the time of the dinosaurs or megafauna was much higher than it is today(and there were no coal burning plants or automobiles back then). We may have a minimal influence on climate but I believe there is a lot of hysteresis and what we have done, will take decades to reach maximum effect and any countermeasures we implement now will take an additional amount of decades to see if the countermeasures worked or not…
