Nailed it, except that "tens of millions" could easily climb into, "Over a billion" depending on a number of factors. Then you add in advanced countries panicking and turning to geoengineering and the end accelerates.
Climate change is discovered by scientists.
People with fossil fuel money create fake science and propagate it through the corrupt media, and the people lap it up because they want to believe it (some reason that it would lead to a big government, hence the science can't be true). They're blocking all action for 30 years. They also constantly harass the scientists.
Climate change causes famine around the Mediterranean. Revolutions, civil wars and some tens of millions refugees and illegal immigrants result.
These flow to neighboring countries and even a little to Europe, causing political problems there.
There's potential for much bigger problems. Usually the people responsible are very much not the people suffering the consequences.
