Globally we have about 17,000 TWh (and increasing) of fossil fuel power generation we'll need to replace. It's gonna take a while, and that's very unfortunate.

My point was that even if it was all replaced tomorrow, the extra greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere won't go away immediately, and the extra heat trapped won't either.
