No worries, just wait for the ice to melt and the gulf stream to stop flowing. It'll cool down in no time! Maybe a disrupted polar vortex will then change from Siberian winters to Sahara heat summers and back every few weeks. While groundwater might be just as scarce as in the desert.
Anyway, don't touch the economy or do you wanna end up in jail like other climate terrorists?

Edit: Regarding the "positive note":
Keep in mind that electricity is only responsible for a part of emissions. Even with 100 % green electricity one would be far from reaching net zero. Other big emitters are industry, transport and heating.
Welp, now I'm definitely depressed...
