It is completely avoidable, but you're right, there is no indication that anyone is going to do anything about it. We could start to fix the problem by using stratospheric aerosol injection as a stopgap measure and building thousands of nuclear reactors to pull carbon out of the air. But that's not the solution environmentalists want, which is one of personal sacrifice and moral cleansing, so here we are. My guess is we'll face some climate catastrophe like the fictional heat wave in The Ministry for the Future, and then start actually doing something about it. The good news is carbon emissions have already decoupled from economic growth, solar and wind are growing exponentially, transportation is being electrified etc. At the same time, technological progress is only accelerating with AI, so our capabilities as a species will be quite amazing in the coming 50-100 years. We can and will fix this.
