"You cannot change a chaotic system in a specific direction. Ever."

We're doing that right now. You might have heard of the experiment; it's called Anthropogenic Global Warming.

"Your presumptions that the system is effected by humans and only humans is wrong."

Who presumes that? You can clearly see the influences of other causes just by looking on the right hand side of this graph, where it says "natural (total)". If you click on the blue names at the bottom, you can even read the papers.
