The authors acknowledge the real solution - use nuclear for carbon free electricity - at the beginning of the book, then proceed to make many unrealistic or impractical suggestions. As they themselves point out, most processes are already within 2x of theoretical efficiency limits, so the only sustainable way is to switch to large scale carbon free electricity.
