Hopefully pretty soon

 

Likely not soon, because a lot of the American population, and not to mention American corporations would rather continue to ruin the climate :-/

 

Or we can allow technology to do it's thing and get rid of all the restrictions we have on it. Technology is improving to the point where this problem won't be a big issue in the future.

Technology is doing it's thing: coming up with fossil-free energy solutions. It's just that people/corporations are reluctant to take them in use cause it costs money, which is why you need a carbon tax to incentivize it.
