Until it was measured and proven yes... measured and proven.

Funny thing about that is that we actually DO have proof. and measurements. and are still measuring it, and are monitoring it. Funny thing about that eh. We have all these things that float above the atmosphere called satellites, and we even have stuff down here called Tools that measure various elements in the atmosphere. Climate scientists are not just making this crap up. (This is not religion where theories are accepted without proof). There are TONS of resources available that state WHY we know its human made, and not volcanic, or the sun changing etc.
In fact there was a whole assessment done on the very fact that human involvement is a large contributor to this mess
