Most of the world wants to be at net zero by 2050, which means if they take these pledges and policies seriously they have to start to cut emissions right now. We also can see multiple countries making real progress in reducing emissions. Solar is already the fastest growing form of energy production ever just ahead of wind. A good number of countries also have passed laws or signed agreements to phase out combustion engine vehicles Also all continents, but Africa have a below replacment total fertility rate today. By 2050 a lot of regions will start to loose population.

Just to say it 2050 is in only 27 years.

As for real progress:

• Coal consumption is done in many countries all over the world. At this point China is responsible for over half the worlds coal consumption. Given how much renewable generation China is installing, the only thing needed is a proper economic crisis to slow down Chinas electricity consumption and coal drops by a lot.
• Oil consumption just say a big dip due to covid, but it recovered. At the same time there is a drop in new car sales in all of the G7 countries besides Germany and electric cars are taking over. Also the oil price is high again.
• Gas just saw one of the biggest market shocks ever with the Ukraine war. EU demand fell a lot and the purchase of a lot of LNG by the EU from other countries created a massive market shock across the world. However demand is propably still rising.
