Why do liberals think in a perfect world without man, the temperature of the Earth would remain constant?

Garbage in, garbage out. They threw away their logic for feel good gestures that do not ammount to a hill of beans.
Most liberals (though I'm not one, I still agree on this subject) believe that man has accelerated the normal heating/cooling process far beyond what it ought to be. Yes, we were in a warming cycle, but the process was supposed to occur over time. Not nearly as rapidly as it currently is heating up.
Now. It is 100% agreed that there have been sharp climbs in temperature before. In fact, we were due for one right around this point in time, and we got it, starting around 1920 or so, and steadily onward from that point.
We're actually at what *should* be the apex of that climb, and CO2 levels SHOULD be dropping off soon, if this was a natural climb.
However, never before has there been a sustainable, highly increased amount of CO2 in the air. Usually, the temperature goes up and whatever was causing the rise in CO2 dies off.
We're capable of changing our environment to suit ourselves. It will take something *major* to stop us. We're not dying off anytime soon - so how do we stop the rise in CO2?
