The extraction isn’t the main problem. Setting fire to it is.
I’m not sure I know what the reasons are to think full conversion cannot happen - we won’t be able to buy a new ICE in the UK in 2035.

China are way ahead of the US on deployment of renewables and EVs even though they continue to build coal stations but that will stop. They may already be close to their peak co2 output.
