Air pollution != climate change.

Methane == climate change.

> Pound for pound, the comparative impact of CH4 on climate change is more than 25 times greater than CO2 over a 100-year period.

This is heavily discussed in a documentary I watched recently, "Cowspiracy."

Right, but it's not climate change that is causing the puking. Put it this way, if we didn't have a greenhouse gas problem, the parents would still be pissed if their kids are puking.
I would argue that air pollution is definitely a kind of climate change, when you interpret the phrase literally.
Whatever gets people believing...
Downvoters, seriously, what could possibly be wrong with that? Maybe you see it as being snarky? It wasn't.
