Of course it is. Even if we actually start sequestering CO2 from the atmosphere – which would require investments in the order of trillions of dollars – the damage has been done.
Not sure why this was downvoted. Everyone is in a perpetual state of "we should start worrying about this". People knew about this problem in the 70s. Many of us would not have been born when actions should have been first taken.
From here onwards it is damage control. It is not the end of the world, we just require intellectual honesty about the situation.
It's possible the origins of this reside in the first Industrial Revolution.
