The Townshend Acts applied duties (taxes) to paper, paint, lead, glass, and tea imported by the colonies. Townshend had studied the colonist's distinction between internal and external taxes and he believed his duties were external as none of the products, except tea, could be made in the colonies. The colonists did not agree with his thinking and the result was a colonial boycott against British products. Trade between England and America fell off by 50 percent as a result of the boycott. The British merchants complained to Parliament who repealed the Townshend Duties except the tax on tea. The tea tax was kept in honor of the Declaratory Act. Parliament passed that act to declare that they did have the right to tax the colonies regardless of the American claim of internal or external taxation.

One method the Colonists used to protest the Townshend Acts was boycotting British goods. There were riots as well. These acts began in 1767.
The Townshend Acts didn't lead to the Civil War.The Townshend Acts were passed by the British Parliament before the American Revolution; long story short, they tried to raise taxes on the American Colonists, and the American Colonists didn't think it was fair for Parliament to raise taxes on them but they couldn't vote in Parliament's elections- "no taxation without representation", as the saying goes.So the Townshend Acts were one of the major contributing factors to the start of the American Revolution, not the US Civil War. You could make the case that without the Townshend Acts, there wouldn't have been a USA and then the USA couldn't have had its Civil War.
