This is what can happen if civilization ended it's use of carbon in ways that produce greenhouse gases.
IT IS POSSIBLE. THERE IS PROOF.

Global CO2 (click here) emmissions MtCO2 per day to December 2020
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, (click here) the leading cause of global warming, fell by 7%, according to the report from the Global Carbon Project (click here), a group of international scientists who track emissions.
That's the biggest yearly drop on record, the group said.
Transportation accounted for the largest share of the global decrease, researchers said. Emissions from surface transport, such as car journeys, fell by approximately half at the peak of the COVID-19 lockdowns.
“Of course, lockdown is absolutely not the way to tackle climate change,” said report co-author
Corinne Le Quere, a climate scientist at the University of East Anglia in the U.K.
The report estimated that the world will have put 37 billion tons of carbon dioxide in the air by the end of 2020. That’s down from 40.1 billion tons in 2019.
Emissions dropped 12% in the USA and 11% in Europe but only 1.7% in China. China had an earlier lockdown and less of a second wave of coronavirus infections. China’s emissions are more industrial-based than other countries', and its industry was less affected than transportation, Le Quere said....
