Not to extend the anthropogenic dimension unduly, but there is plenty of evidence that the precession/wobble/ovality of the Earth's trajectory around itself/the sun, and historical evidence in ice/mud cores with colder/warmer cycles is:

That we should be heading for a dip in global temperatures going forward. And that is clearly not the evidence we are presented with.

When I wus designing electronic gizmos and debugging/proofing prototypes the one thing that would have caught me out if I let it go too long is:

to deny it was a problem. Just like Twitler is changing his COVID tune, ya can't ignore for long, ya just dun gotta act.

Sadly human endeavour is pretty self-centred (en mass) so whatever is done GW/COVID will mean we will do other things without thought to the effect on consumption - unintended consequences will be the cry.
Un-thought-through is mine!
