Emmm...no? Climate change doesn't mean only the rising sea level and heat, it also mean extreme weather pattern, which include but not limited to cat6 or even worst hurricane, extremely heavy rain, stronger blizzard, and the expanding cold snap, all of which can directly hit all western country.
They can affect a western country but these are not societal threatening issues, not in the same way climate change is for poorer countries.
Every country in the world is going to be affected by climate change. Extreme weather causing growing seasons to change or destroying entire crops will be a common occurrence. Where do you think “the west” will be buying food from if no one can produce it?
You guys are both right. He is downplaying the affect of climate change. It's not just going to be "some reduction in the standard of living". You are wrong in thinking there will be no food.
Some crops may not be available year-round, for any price. Right now you can get tropical fruit any month in colder climates. This may go away for many months of the year. Maybe shipping is disrupted by larger storms, so goods take longer to arrive.
Basically it may be like during the pandemic when transportation shut down, and you couldn't get some goods at any price. That's more than a "reduction in standard of living".
