I have the same feelings about climate change. Nothing's going to change until shit gets much, much worse. Too bad to ignore.

The big issue with accelerationism like that is in a crisis like climate change by the time the issues are so bad they're non-ignorable resources will be so tied up addressing the symptoms there won't be slack left for addressing the underlying issues.

Also for climate change specifically there's a huge hangover effect from already emitted greenhouse gases and carbon extraction is extremely difficult.
