While i think its important to reduce our collective footprint reasonably, liberals are acting like the worlds gonna blow up in two years. I mean Jesus, calm down and work with this "huge problem" you guys have instead of beating people over the head with it.

The Medieval Warm Period, by itself, contradicts the entire man-made global warming scenario. Which is why the warmists were so eager to discredit it and bury it. If it was warmer during Viking times than it is today, long before there was any industrial activity, why should we assume that any slight increase in temperature is caused by human activity? When we know for a fact that the world got warmer without human activity; and that this warming not only did no harm, but did an immense amount of good?
If you want to know why the entire man-made global warming hypothesis is a complete fraud, just study the Medieval Warm Period.

But do you think that man-made activities that is attributed as responsible for "global warming" by them, to not be harmful for the environment and humans (even if they are not responsible for global warming) ?

I wouldn't say so by itself. Cause A having effect C does not mean cause B can't also cause C under different circumstances. Further, it's not a stretch to suggest that a massive outpouring of greenhouse gases will affect the climate. We know this happens after large volcanic events, for example.
The argument is one of quantity, not quality.

Yeah, the denialist argument is dumb because it hinges on the idea that climate changes naturally.
Like, no shit it changes over time, but that’s not literally the only cause.
It also doesn’t help their case that the current warming is off-cycle.
