I hate clickbait as much as the next person but in this case... aren't the people you're talking about the people you want to read the article?

Most people don’t actually read the articles. They just scan the headlines and take away whatever they want from that. This would have been much better if the headline was more like: Scientists grossly underestimated the impact of climate change. That would have been sensationalistic while also conveying the main point of the article to those people.

I guess the fear is they will not read the article at all. Just twitter the title along. Which is probably a reasonable assumption.
