In February came out some statistics (https://www.iea.org/articles/global-co2-emissions-in-2019 https://www.iea.org/articles/global-co2-emissions-in-2019) showing that we added in 2019 as much CO2 to the atmosphere in energy generation than in 2018 (over the trend increasing it every year). It was a somewhat good news, but it wasn't so much in the context that in the last years we invested a lot in clean energy generation, so it meant that the oil industry kept growing their emissions, at a rate that matched all what we did to lower it. Leaving unchecked that loose end means that all our effort and investment will be wasted. And if all we did is only good enough to match the increasing of oil based energy generation we are still not dealing with the non-energy related emissions (like methane coming from the oil industry) or positive feedback loops in the environment increasing CO2 and methane in the atmosphere.
