No, you are right that the Earth has been through at least two of these cycles where carbon in the atmosphere first goes up and then down. The two cycles each lasted 250 million years. Seems the previous one ended with the break up of Pangea. Ruddiman's work shows how people have helped prevent another ice age by putting methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. But our efforts are not puny at all. And now they are much to strong to keep the climate balanced the way people have adapted to it. And the way that now highly fragmented nature can adapt to. I've said this time and again. You are right on the first part but wrong on the second.
