But Albaby, a lot of people's lives are currently having their lives shattered by desertification, rising sea levels, intensifying weather extremes.

Sure. There's consequences to rising temperatures. That doesn't mean that there aren't consequences to the policy measures that would be sufficient to actually, meaningfully affect rising temperatures. Part of the reason that you're seeing an anti-Green backlash as part of populist movements in Europe is because voters are unhappy with the costs of those policies...and European leaders are reacting to that, since they don't want a repeat of the Gillet-Jaune protests.

The costs of policies to fight climate change are politically palatable while those policies were weak enough, unambitious enough to be largely ineffective - the lowest (and smallest) hanging fruits. But as governments move, or try to move, into policies that might actually work, the impacts are more visible and painful to voters. Which is why you're seeing pushback to them.
