I'm not a climatologist but as I understand it when looking at the climate over the long scale there are cycles as the climate changes that are predictable by natural processes (including effects of the Earths orbit and co2 changes). Then from the 19th century the climate has been moving off the known path as understood by these cycles. The difference has been attributed to humans. The worry is that when you put the cyclic natural of climate change together with the human caused climate change then what you may end up with is a climate which is not conducive to food productive for the human population.
