We really just need to leave fossil fuels in the ground starting right now. Capture is good, and probably necessary, but we'll be fighting a losing, impossible battle until we stop emitting. Non-damaging energy technology is right there, we only need to use it.
This x1000. The one thing that absolutely must happen is the one thing that nobody seems to want to discuss. All oil wells, coal mines, and natural gas extractors must be shut down immediately. Hardly anything else is worth worrying about. As long as it is being extracted, it will be burned and anything else is rearranging Titanic deck chairs. Shut it down. People will find alternative energy sources.
