Climate change is currently ranked number 13 out of 17 sustainable development goals by the UN. Not even in the top 10.

The UN goals are set that way as their primary issue is to help progress the billions who live in 3rd world conditions. There's no point focusing on climate action when your population is starving, uneducated etc. If you look at the list most of those goals will inherently combat climate change as they are promoting clean energy, lower consumption, smarter cities, etc etc.... For instance the rise of the Indian and Chinese middle class will blow away any gains the rest of the world makes if they are not educated on sustainable living as they progress. If everyone in China and India suddenly have the consumption, travel patterns, eating habits at rates of the average Australian the world is doomed. If climate change don't scare you, then the inflationary effects of this should.
