I agree on nuclear. But, you will not see a government agency predicting imminent doom. They’re constrained by politicians not to do so. The individual scientists, however, are more grim.
I can’t find it, but I read an article of some of the top climate researchers in Australia basically planning to abandon the country for themselves and their children.
Just the other day, there was an article here where the world’s leading coral expert was saying unequivocally that almost all the world’s coral will die within our lifetime (it sounds like he expected more like 10-20, though he wasn’t specific). He noted that 25-33% of ALL ocean species have part of their lifecycle in this coral.

Unless we reverse this (sucking carbon from air using nuclear or solar power?), we emphatically do not have 200-300 years.
