It's true that we're not nearly the most damaging species in the history of the earth (read about the Permian–Triassic extinction event), and the climate has always been changing. I'm not concerned that we'll destroy life on earth, but I am concerned that we may make the earth rather inhospitable for ourselves.
I don't pretend to know what our long-term effects will be on the climate, but I'm absolutely certain we should be concerned with it.

Ahh, then I think you and I are definitely on the same page. Maybe that's why we're both on this forum.
