Good news! Climate change is already making malaria worse, decreasing food security, and will presumably begin destabilising governments in some regions as a result of disasters and migration if it has not already begun to do so. Prioritising efforts to stem the tide of climate change is prioritising those things!

For some of these it also applies the other way, doesn't it:

Richer societies can afford to heat their homes with more sustainable solutions.

More educated societies are more likely to introduce nuclear power or build windmill parks.

War could worsen the greenhouse effect.
