I don't need evidence that the planet is warming, I need a cost/benefit analysis of what meaningful impact (if any) such "strong actions" could possibly have on this trend.

During the last century, CO2 emissions have been steadily rising year-over-year, in line with population growth across the globe. Given that this trend is now stalling naturally, the warming trend should follow suit. This leads me to the question: How bad is the "do literally nothing" scenario really?
