The current understanding of climate sensitivity is that since Carbon Dioxide gas will remain in the upper atmosphere for decades (and possibly centuries) even a complete halt on emissions will not avert warming predicted for the next century or so.
Methane has a shorter lifetime, though (though my five minutes’ research tells me we’ve already stopped increasing methane emissions).
