That is not a particularly happy thought, since the implication is that action to stop emissions (to raise my personal issue, replacing coal power with nuclear) would cause a large and very rapid temperature increase.
Since China has little gas and oil, energy increases will shift to renewables, and this will stop growth in CO2 emissions by 2030.
These keep increasing emissions until temperatures reach 1.5 C and assume that emissions stop immediately once the threshold temperature is reached, which is essentially impossible in the real world.
