"Speed of climate change is the issue"...I think you and others will appreciate the linked article..

read the entire piece, but pay special attention to the "Speed..." section...both scientists agree that the earth's troposphere's temperature is increasing, but one of them is concerned about the speed with which it's rising, while noting that humans aren't likely to be able to adapt to such rapid changes very well (e.g. crop loss...rising sea level...)...here is how Logan Mitchell analogizes it...

--------------------------
If a motorist is in a car speeding 60 mph toward a stoplight, Mitchell questions why the driver would not slow that car down in advance of the stopping point and take some steps along the way to reduce the impact of a collision, i.e., reducing carbon emissions.

“The key point to understand and communicate is that the actual temperature that the Earth is at doesn’t matter. Humans and civilization can adapt to any given temperature. What’s a problem is the ‘speed’ of climate change. Civilization has trouble adapting to rapid climate change and that is why we care.”
---------------------------

Does this help?
