There is simply no chance the key carbon producing 'developing' nations are going to curtail emissions. They simply cannot afford to do this given the economic and social stability costs associated with the migration. This, and parts of Europe (namely Germany) are now dependent on higher emission inputs as a result of Russia's Ukraine gambit.
The vast sums expended on climate change reversal are better now spent on climate change adaptation, though I fully expect this to be another trillion dollar boondoggle enriching NGOs, consultants, advocacy groups and corporations.
Sorry to be the bearer of the bad news and I accept the massive downvotes as my penance.
I think you are realistic. I ask you to be open to other ideas such as those I suggested elsewhere here about small items that can compound to make bigger effects. Sometimes some of the ideas need lots of money, others are more community-oriented.
