You can't do anything about human rights abuses if you can't grow food to eat. Ultimately climate change has the potential to break down modern human society, at least to an extent. It's also a bit of an exaggeration, the point of the article isn't that we literally should not care about any other issue at all.
> You can't do anything about human rights abuses if you can't grow food to eat.
As a society, we (still) can grow food to eat. You aren't saying we should disregard human rights abuses right now just because we might not be able to grow enough food some time in the future?
Again, I'm not saying to disregard climate change, I just find it very disingenious to say it's the only story that matters: it's not.
