The world has changed its climate several times before humanity had the capability to influence it. (I.e. Ice age and extinction events) Is there any undeniable evidence that climate change is primarily caused by man?

Climates do change on their own. But it takes thousands of years. There is zero evidence that it has changed this fast before. The earth has many means to filter out C02, but humans are destroying them. Were poisoning our oceans... 90% of our coral reefs will he dead in 30 years...coral reefs, along with rain forests being the primary source of Co2 filtration... looking at how humans have destroyed numerous ecosystems that the earth is dependent on, is say yes the current extremely fast changing climate can be attributed to humans

What I'm getting at is people act like investing billions of dollars will solve all our problems. And we only have good day at from the last 100 or so years so we aren't sure

Its not like investing billions into renewable energy is a waste.... climate change or not it still has to be done imagine the stability that will come to the middle East after the west stops needing their oil

I mean say there is zero climate change and we can burn as much as we want.. How long will oil last out? 100.. 200 years tops?

That's true it's a good idea to further renewable efficient energy. But right now solar and wind aren't as effective as fossil fuels. And they aren't even all that much safer. We need to focus on making renewable energy cost efficient and then switch over
