We already needed to to do that anyway. In either case the share of electricity from low-carbon sources is steadily increasing, driven primarily by renewables. At the moment about 90% of new capacity is just solar and wind. Which are also very fast to deploy. Yes, I know, this is Reddit, so "what about nuclear?" We've heard of it. New nuclear is too expensive and slow to deploy.

Yeah nuclear is great and probably would be the most efficient way to go carbon neutral... But on time and within budget nuclear plant construction is not

Theoretically a nuclear world is possible, Practically it's hard and improbable
