renewables will probably be enough to supply all our needs and more by the 2030

This seems extremely optimistic! Electricity production from coal has been rising steadily for decades :( https://www.statista.com/statistics/1082201/coal-fired-electricity-generation-globally/

30% of global electricity was from renewables in 2024. It's already cheaper than most other sources, and keeps getting cheaper.
