Because it’s truly a first world problem. Rest of the world has other problems like hunger, clean drinking water and other basic necessities to solve

Aren't those "other problems" somewhat affected by climate change though?

All those problems were already there even before climate change was a topic, so nothing new regarding that front

I'd wager they're not binary (absent/present) issues but have many dimensions and a continuum of possible values and thus "climate change makes this problem worse or different" is something new. Random example: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41612-024-00583-8

I don't think GP was claiming they weren't.
