It's interesting that you keep pushing geoengineering while at the same time disparaging, rejecting, ignoring and otherwise expressing extreme negativity towards the multiple, readily implementable plans that have been put forward by multiple independent organizations and academic researchers, as well as government agencies, for rapidly phasing out CO2 emissions from fossil fuels using benign technologies that we have at hand now.

That solution is to rapidly phase out fossil fuels and replace them with non-carbon sources of energy, use that energy with maximum efficiency, and use organic agriculture and reforestation to to draw down the already dangerous anthropogenic excess of atmospheric CO2.

How would phasing out U.S. federal leases for fossil fuel extraction affect CO2 emissions and 2 °C goals?.

First, we must phase out the use of coal and unconventional fossil fuels except where the CO2 is captured and sequestered.

Phasing out federal leases for fossil fuel extraction could reduce global CO2 emissions by 100 million tonnes per year by 2030, and by greater amounts thereafter.

Phasing out fossil fuels in 50 - 100 years is possible and makes an enormous impact by stabilizing the CO2 level below 500 ppm.

The second figure shows that if coal emissions were thus phased out between 2010 and 2030, and if emissions from unconventional fossil fuels such as tar shale were minimized, atmospheric CO2 would peak at 400 - 425 ppm and then slowly decline.

Specifically, they say that humanity «must begin now to move toward the era beyond fossil fuels», and «the most difficult task, phase - out over the next 20 - 25 years of coal use that does not capture CO2, is Herculean, yet feasible when compared with the efforts that went into World War II.

An ambitious set of policy measures, including the rapid phase out of fossil fuel subsidies, CO2 prices rising to unprecedented levels, extensive energy market reforms, and stringent low - carbon and energy efficiency mandates would be needed to achieve this transition.

The ultimate objective of this transformation is to phase out fossil fuel combustion with uncontrolled CO2 emissions.

In any case, in order to figure out how to «phase out fossil fuel combustion», they go on to describe what they call the «principal drivers» of CO2 emissions, viz:
