In For All Mankind, fusion was developed in the 90s and emissions dropped almost immediately. We are still burning fossil fuels and are at least decades from fusion power. We are already seeing climate catastrophe unravel.

Ah, gotcha thanks.

(That's a funny timeline for sure. Even if we invented practical fusion reactor design literally tomorrow it would take decades to ramp-up power plants and phase out fossil-burning)
