For most sensible people, climate change is, mainly, an energy generation problem that can be solved, calmly.
For post religious esp white people, climate change - with its obsession on sin, the wrath of Gaia, etc - fills the void that ancestral Protestantism once filled.

The world's pajandrums gather in Glasgow to debate climate change commitments (for 2050 when all will be long gone from office) as European energy markets collapse under Renewables failure & the US meets the perfect 1970s storm: inflation, supply & energy cost rises
We in Australia (like Canada - do not let Trudeau's antics fool you) will do the bare minimum as we are an energy superpower that is supplying coal, gas, uranium, etal to the world at near record prices. We have a massive & people dispersed island & we cannot all work for an NGO. 
One of the more amusing aspects of the climate change debate is well-meaning but breathtaking naive people citing Denmark, Norway [or some other tiny, German panzer R&R stop] country as examples - which in Australia would be an unusually white & very polite local government area.
My Ockham’s Razor approach to climate change has always been that if people are serious about zero emissions then they will support reliable, scalable, zero emissions, Nuclear power - and if they are not supporting Nuclear power, they have some agenda apart from zero emissions.
