TLDR:

The agency’s latest World Energy Outlook, a comprehensive report on global energy trends, still includes its previous “stated policies” scenario, essentially projecting that countries will continue enacting policies that help tackle climate change and adopting solar panels, wind turbines and electric vehicles at a rapid clip, potentially leading to a decline or plateau in the use of oil, gas and coal by 2035.

Unlike last year, however, the agency is also including a more conservative “current policies” scenario that assumes countries won’t enact any additional energy policies and will face obstacles in shifting to cleaner forms of power. The Trump administration had pressured the agency to include this scenario, which sees oil and gas demand rising steadily through 2050, leading to significantly more global warming.

You're the first answer that actually pointed out to OP the fallacy in his logic. Then again, this looks like a troll account that's already been banned a few times over. So 🤷

Also, how did the fireworks actually do this?

What's unsolved about the concept? It doesn't have to be self sustaining, and most of it is just engineering challenges that can be solved by throwing money at it.

Yes, you've now got high end scientists in universities across Europe!
