I think the wicked problem is the impacts of climate change, the unpredictable weather patterns. It's really hard to solve the problem of hurricane season expanding, or multiple strong hurricanes per season. It's hard to solve the problem of rising sea levels that cause sea walls to be breached any time there's a moderate storm. It's hard to solve increasing desertification causing water shortages which increases world migration and destabilizes economies leading to the rise in disaffected youth in poverty stricken countries that then leads to a rise in gang violence which then unifies under a banner and attempts to establish a new nation causing a civil war which only further increases world migration further destabilizing economies and politics around the world. It's hard to solve... you get the picture.
Rising CO2 levels are the cause of the wicked problems, not the wicked problem itself. We know people are dying from climate change, but determining what will directly cause those deaths and how to prevent them is the problem.
