I would think that two latter of those are the most reasonable and prudent strategies, while geoengineering would be last resort.

I think the dire nature of things can been seen in industry. The automotive industry is rapidly shifting their fleets toward plug-in electrics. The oil and gas sector has gone pretty silent on trying to counter the climate change science argument. We see three billionaires investing a lot of money in trying to find means to escape the planet. It seems we are near or have passed a tipping point, and not the industrial reactions are starting to manifest. What we really need is a massive change in the nuclear energy narrative and a rapid adoption of thorium-based salt reactors to solve the energy needs.
