That's not been my observation. A quick check of hn.algolia shows that Climate Change posts do get a decent number of upvotes/comments[0].
Sure, it's not as many upvotes/comments as compared to when you search "Apple" or "Microsoft" - but I feel like climate change + other important issues (like privacy) are pretty well upvoted/commented on.
Could there/should there be even _more_ traction? Probably. But IMO it's unfair to say:
