Because of higher carbon dioxide levels the last few years, NASA has shown the earth is now 20% greener than before. Certain areas of desert have started getting a little more rain and grass and trees are coming back into those areas. It will eventually reach a balance where carbon dioxide will begin to decrease.
I heard the talk between Musk and Trump. Musk thinks we have more like 100 years to get electric cars, wind, solar, and nuclear power to replace coal, natural gas, fuel oil, gasoline and diesel. In the meantime he also thinks we should drill. He doesn't believe in mandates, but gradual switchover to alternative energy over a longer period of time. Forcing and mandating will create higher prices, recessions, shortages, etc. It never works.
The government didn't mandate we give up horse and buggy for automobiles, it happened on it's own. Neither did they mandate telephone or telegraph use. Government has recently tried to subsidize getting high speed internet to rural areas for billions. Not working very well as most rural users are buying Starlink satellite dishes which are very small, fairly cheap, but service is more expensive than cable, but rural people don't seem to care. The government never mandated radio stations or TV stations all over the country nor did they subsidize them, it happened on its own. Electric vehicles will happen on their own as range, price, and recharging times all come within reasonable time and price.
No liberal is thinking about the grid, improving transmission lines by 50% with carbon fiber wiring, building more nuclear power facilities, building solar panels over parking lots and flat top buildings instead of farmland. Get this done first and while at it make them EMP proof then we can talk about electric cars and power using AI.
