Many people don't realize climate change isn't just about hotter weather. Climate change means more energy in Earth's atmosphere. That does cause hot weather in places but also more water evaporation, more storm energy (tornadoes and cyclones), more precipitation, more melting ice in Greenland which is not compensated by the extra snowfall, which causes less salty water to form on the surface of the Nordic sea maybe one day weakening or blocking the Atlantic gulf-stream which could then drop median European temperatures on the entire continent by 10 C (about 18 F?)..
Doesn't matter if its man made or not, climate change is messy and we're not prepared.
