I like your optimism, however we’ve passed some major tipping points.

Methane is pumping from the tundra at such a rate it's blowing craters. Likewise shallow seas are out gassing methane plumes. Although methane is spent in about 10 years, it does add up to 28% to the greenhouse effect, and as it's accelerating it's replenishing at an alarming rate. The forecasts in this video are very conservative. It's coming harder and faster than scientists expected.
That is a trigger that has already been pulled, a threshold crossed, and a whole lot more unanswered questions.
Also Russia and China will actively work against climate measures because their interests in the sea silk road and Artic shipping lanes will increase their wealth. It crazy. It's pretty much over bar the screaming. We're Done.

It may not affect you right now, but history has shown that the world needs to think ahead. We need to think of alternative ways for energy while making sure to balance that with businesses that need them.
