The goal is to stop co2 ppm from rising in the atmosphere beyond dangerous levels, these arent policies to stop that happening, they're polices to replace minor sources of co2 emission (electricity use in developing countries).
I mean if people want to believe all this matters, so be it; but it doesnt. The goal isnt to replace coal power stations with solar ones, it's to stop co2 levels from rising. They're rising 20ppm/decade, iirc, and none of this does anything to change that. maybe it stops them from rising faster than they would have done.
