Ok, I don't buy that for a few reasons:
* If something was able to push CO2 levels until they got right to this delicate balance where even a little more could cause a cascade effect, why did it stop there and what's stopping it from fluctuating.
* If humans are able to produce just enough CO2 to push it over the top, then why not all the other things that produce far more CO2 than us, like oceanic emissions or volcanoes.
* How do we account for CO2 spikes lagging behind temperature spikes in the historical record? It looks more like temperature is driving CO2, not the other way around.
