I mean, if we look at history, climate change (even much smaller than what we are facing) tends to trigger wars. Suddenly land that was valuable isn't and vice versa. Even in the most optomistic scenario it will probably destabalize the world order and result in conflicts.

Like e.g. weather events are thought to be one of the likely factors in the late bronze age collapse. There's evidence that unusual climate events coincided with the fall of rome. Like obviously a lot of other factors were at play, climate just pushed something brittle to its breaking point.
