If Neil says the warming started in 1850 by now we should be Venus.

The world uses something like 155,000 Tera watt hours per year of energy. Any word on how that's going to be accomplished using current tech with out nuclear?

As of 2018 only 1.5 out of every 1,000 registered vehicles in the united states is all electric.
In 2015 less than 3% of new vehicle sales were full electric.
Today,fossil fuel combustion is equivalent to a forest fire the size of the entire surface of Earth,including the oceans,burned 1.6-times each year.
If the Earth was 12-inches in diameter (a standard globe),the atmosphere would be represented by a sphere of 2.25-inch diameter.It's very small in comparison.We just can't see the combustion gases from this global forest fire.
