Yes, we probably do have some effect on these things, although maybe
not quite to the extreme as in your 'example'..   B)

I often tell people who really want to learn more about this to
read a book by Michael Crichton called State of Fear which is an
entertaining Eco-terrorist action book but it has a Huge amount of
Real science in it with credits given to the papers written by
actual scientists where the data was taken from. It does point
out the tiny difference we make to Carbon levels and how a single
volcanic eruption can do more amage than we do in years and such.

I'm sure I have that eBook here somewhere.. I have the paper version
as well..
