A vain hope about global warming?

It's mid November and I'm looking out of my office window. (As most writers do for much of their day, I'm sure.)

All the trees I can see still have most if not all their leaves. Though some are now turning, very few have fallen in the yard below. The bags I have for recyling green waste remain as yet unused.

Could it possibly be that this is a natural mechnism for controlling variations in the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere? Indeed, could the biosphere itself have the mechanisms save us from our foolishness?

Or is this as big a fantasy as the denial of human-induced climate change?
