Lets be honest, if humans were to put Manhattan project levels of effort in, we could decarbonize everything in a year.
Turns out no country wants to put all that effort in when the alternative is using 'free' oil from underground.

The masses have this delusional view that we could decarbonize in such a way that only billionaires feel the squeeze, and their lives improve while also becoming carbon free. If we want rapid change, we have to be willing to make enormous personal sacrifice.
