I think it’s pretty clear from context that “climate change” in this case is shorthand for “human-caused warming and carbonization of oceans,” even if that’s not explicit.
“Climate change” is an overly broad term, true, but it’s also very easy to understand what is meant by it in 90% of situations.
If I tell you I got into a car accident “because of bad weather,” you should assume that I don’t mean that it was too hot outside.
