Those increased rates come back. Since the us alone accounts for 27% of global emissions, with 40% or more of that attributed to the generation of electricity - and given that refitting the us grid for nuclear would put us about on par with refitting it for wind, and better off than solar.
That's a huge chunk - and other countries may choose to continue burning fossil fuels - but they already consume less and it might be difficult to sit there staring at a country like the us producing as much electricity as the us produces doing it safer, cleaner, and cheaper and saying "fuck it, we're gonna stick with coal for shits and giggles!".
