That's not the "natural" temperatures, it's just the temperatures that we've had for the last few thousand years. The last glacial period, with very cold temperatures, was less than 12,000 years ago.

CO2 levels have been much higher and much lower over the last few billion years. There is no "natural" level for CO2.

Hey you know what while we are at it, paper was once trees, plastic was once petroleum from offshore drills, and our feces/urine is organic. So lets just dump all our paper anywhere we want, fill the oceans with plastic garbage, and just go to bathroom anywhere anytime we want outside.
