Then the planet can cool off and become our fresh start. We need to pull Venus back from the sun to about where Earth is. Then the planet can cool off and become our fresh start.

It would need very large superconducting cables wrapped around the planet on lines of constant latitude, but the stored magnetic energy would be surprisingly modest, on the order of the output of a typical large powerplant for a year or so.
