We have technology right now to solve the problem. Carbon capture, planting trees, alternative energies, etc. We have just decided not to properly invest in deploying them or advancing them to make them more efficient. Green new deal might be a step in the right direction.

Carbon capture is one of the technologies I consider wishful thinking right now. It may well work but I haven't seen anything other than a handful of small scale trials yet people have been talking about it for twenty years.
I'm not particularly convinced by the green new deal either: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13563467.2019.15...
