It's entirely possible that we're contributing - it would be pretty silly to convince ourselves that we can pump whatever we want into the atmosphere and have no overall effect. Whether we're causing IRREPARABLE DAMAGE OH NOES WE'RE KILLING THE EARTH... seems pretty doubtful.
Even if we're not going to fry the planet, I believe that it's a good idea to try to be more responsible about what we do to it. Frankly I find both extreme camps - "we're murdering the Earth" and "who cares? we can't change nothin'" - to be equally ridiculous.

Thank you.
I don't really think we have the data to be certain, on a geological scale. We know the planet gets hotter and colder, there's no doubt about that. But I'd be rather suspicious of anyone who claims to have full knowledge of how and when and why these changes occur.
Very true.
Yep!
Good.

I believe that we are contributing. But I do not believe that global warming is entirely man-made.

Sunspots are actually colder than the surrounding area, which is why they appear black
