You could definitely eliminate all further anthropogenic effects on climate by killing all humans, but that may not be the most palatable solution politically.

Jared Diamond shared a theory in Guns, Germs and Steel that the mini ice age in the sixteenth century was caused by the deaths of 95 percent of the inhabitants of the Americas from diseases following Columbus, leading to widespread re-vegetation that caused climate change. That may have been discredited now.

Genghis Khan killed 10% of the world's population at the time, causing climate change for a couple of hundred years. Climate hero.
