They have little to do with each other besides being in the same subject.
The radioisotopic carbon,oxygen,and other isotope assays of all the climate proxies belong to a very mature field of scientific study.There is no dispute over its efficacy.
It's like ancestry.com for ice cores,sea sediments,paleodendrochronology,coral,stalagtites, etc..
All CO2 has a specific fingerprint which belies it's origin.We know if it came from Coal,gasoline,diesel,natural gas,etc..
And again,when you burn a man-made fire the size of the entire surface of Earth (oceans included),1.6-X each year,you can expect to see that show up in the atmosphere.
