There is a lot of things that seems easy, but in fact are impossible.

Sure, we could just stop using fossil fuels. But something like 50% of the global population would then be starving.

The cure that so often is prescribed is worse than the disease. And people don't seem to realize.

There's a big gap between the amount of oilwwe use today and zero oil, we can reduce without stopping.

I think your point leads down the path of arguing that we have too many people on the planet though. If we can sustainably feed everyone without causing unknown amounts of damage to the environment, we will eventually hit a wall and run out of ways to dodge that fact.
