I'll answer this so you can get a comprehensive answer.
The Earth is shaped due to billions of years of evolution. No part of that process is designed for a world with over population, over production, combustion engines, fossil fuels and the continual destruction of the natural habitat to accommodate more people.
The Earth isn't designed for 7 billion people.
The Earth isn't designed for large corporations to destroy the natural world in the pursuit of profits.
The Earth isn't designed for fossil fuels to be burned.
Is the Earth warming as a natural thing that happens? Yes
Are the activities of Man making it worse? Yes.
Whenever the Earth warmed or froze before now there were far fewer people and news only came from Europe. If millions died in the third world, few knew and no one cared. The next hot spell will see millions starve to death as crops fail and livestock can't find grazing land.

There's a ton of evidence that tell you why Humans are contributing to Global Warming.
Can we stop it? Not without measures that few will implement or like. So do we ignore the dangers and carry on as we are?
