I believe it's naive to think that climate change can be prevented, CMV.

As an Earth Scientist working with and amongst climate researchers, I agree that anthropogenic (man-made) climate change has a significant -- yet unclear and complicated -- impact on the earth's climate, both now and in the future.  But I also think climate change is ultimately something we can't prevent and need to learn to accept and live with.  

Why?  There is a wealth of geological data which says that the climate change has been common throughout earths history (e.g. as demonstrated by sequence stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, lithospheric flexure calculations, etc).  There's also compelling evidence showing that climate change can happen rapidly even without human influence (e.g. volcanic eruptions, meteorite impacts, solar events, threshold triggering of dynamic processes, etc).  Furthermore, rapid climate change has already been observed or implied in human history (e.g. little ice age, the year without summer, out-of-africa reconstructions including mt toba eruption, etc).  

Due to the complex influence of humanity on the climate, and the near certainty of both long term and rapid climate change happening anyway, I believe it's naive and counterproductive to attempt drastic measures to prevent climate change.

Please attempt to change my view, and convince me that "preventing climate change" is more than a mantra repeated by those with vested interests.  Perhaps I have missed something, or not yet thought about it in the right way.

Even if we cannot prevent climate change, is it not in our best interests to mitigate the effects? Humans are best suited for environments without extreme weather conditions, and seeing that  man made climate change is producing these undesirable conditions, by all reasoning we should cease these actions. Even if we cannot prevent naturally occurring climate spikes, anthropogenic change exaggerates an already bad situation, therefore it is in humanity's best interest to limit C02 emissions so we can weather the naturally occurring change without having to also deal with the man-made effects as well.
