Not pushing the break when you are driving directly into a wall at high velocity is not crying wolf, it is common sense.
It is only comparable to crying wolf if there is no wall or if you are going so slow that you could just calmy reduce the speed instead of alarming people — if you are actually in control of the vehicle. If you are not in a car, but on a huge ship the wall can be further out and the speed can be lower and suddenly crying wolf becomes a high paid job. Climate change is like a big oil tanker: if we want to stop in 30 years we need to hit the break now.
The nuclear crisis is different, because there is no clear defined path, but the risk of nuclear war is not zero.
