I really appreciated your response. People keep saying humanity is going to go extinct and it seems like we have too much time and technology for that to happen. I still wonder if the thing we need even more than tech to reduce CO2 is agreements to stop and reverse population growth. I don't think Earth can sustainably support more than 4B people. It feels like we need as much time as possible to truly move to renewables but population explosion just reduces the time available.
