Yes... alot of these compounds are naturally occurring... but to simply dismiss the human effect is simplistic and ignorant of the facts.

You mean the Ozone cycle, that went away, that has happened before?
In localized areas, pollution damages the environment for long periods of time, people, and animals. That's THE reason we should be fighting to clean up our act..
Those Toxins produced by man don't register on the global scale. At this very moment, the oceans have many areas that can release enough Methane (and other toxins) to kill every Human on the planet in a single bolt of lightening.
You may want to step back and take in the grand scale of earth, the sun, everything you can see. Humans take up less than 1% of the land mass (that's exposed), have been here for less than 1% of the time, have been industrialized for no amount of time..
We aren't in control here... good or bad.
