Climate change also disrupt ecosystems. Tradeoffs have to be made, and blocking everything doesn't mean things stay the way they are. It means continued CO2 emissions, higher energy costs and housing shortage. Rooftop solar, while a good thing, is more expensive to install and not enough to replace fossil fuels.

For what it's worth, I agree that trade offs need to be made, like lithium mining and nuclear power. Desert solar plants looks like a painless win on the surface, but they don't hold up to scrutiny.
