It's a vicious circle that humans probably helped get started. Global warming induced by us would itself induce even more global warming. Scientists have been saying this for years already.

To sum up - it's fallacy to state that because something is small (human emissions) compared to something else (nature's emissions), the small thing must therefore be insignificant
And it's a fallacy to think that because one thing (heat) can cause a certain event, a second thing (humans) is therefore unable to contribute as well
I dare you to look up how much we contribute then. I want to see the actual numbers from your post. And compare it to natural co2 emissions.

Maybe we DO contribute, but if it was a natural cycle anyways, HOW MUCH do we contribute? Is the contribution dangerous?
