Let's look at the data [1], which should be a table of per capita emission/country, sorted by 2022 numbers. The countries at the top have to make the largest changes in their socio-economic systems in order to get close to zero emissions. While countries at the bottom have to make minimal changes. They simply have to not emit in the future by using carbon-neutral methods to attain improved human well-being. You will note in the table [2], that at the top are the oil producing countries in the Middle East, followed by Canada, USA, and Australia. Most of the large European countries are far below. The bottom half of the table obviously contains no West countries. China has half the per capita emissions of USA/Canada/Australia, and the same as current Europe, and it's already decreasing both its population and soon its per capita emissions. It's precisely the people in the Middle East and USA/Canada/Australia have to make the largest changes in their systems. China+Europe have to follow the same downward trajectories.
