If you talking about climate change, then there really isn't much we can do about it. The climate changes in cycles and we are just now witnessing this current event. The climate has been changing for the last 12,000 years.
Now if you are suggesting that increasing CO2 levels are the cause I'd suggest that water vapor is the main cause of atmospheric warming. The question becomes, does CO2 increase temperature or does the increase in temperature cause an increase in CO2? I ask this because temperature increase comes mainly from sun activity and the increase in solar winds. An increase like this will cause more water vapor in the atmosphere and therefore more heating and an increase in CO2 levels. This is a natural event, so can we stop this or slow it down, I think not.
