I don't think that anybody for sure can predict exactly what is going to happen on planet Earth when more and more CO2 and other gases are blown in the atmosphere. However the lack of certainty in my opinion is not a good reason not to take any action. That is because even the chance of a runaway effect of global warning could have very dire consequences and make large parts of planet earth un habitable.
Even the risk of such a thing happening is enough reason for me to stop playing with fire and keeping our footprint as small as possible (within reason), simply because a failure to do so could have such dire consequences. I agree with Biomaven that nuclear power is the most credible way out but unfortunately the same crowd that insists on combating climate change tend to be against nuclear power as well.
