wouldn’t it be better to do it on our own terms rather than in a global catastrophe?

The catastrophy is inevitable, it's just a question of whether any humans will survive.

For example CO2 has a delayed effect of ~40years (if I remember correctly). The effects of global warming are very much obvious now, but the yearly output hasn't at any point dropped to those levels since.
