Clever, but incorrect. This is a rhetorical construction which falls apart if you don't overload the word, "reduce." Climate change is bad because it can end human lives. The lives which it doesn't end may experience significant hardship and unhappiness. Decreasing the rate of population growth does reduce the number of existing humans, but it doesn't induce that reduction by ending lives. It also doesn't increase the amount of hardship imposed on most humans. Do you see why climate change and population reduction are not comparable?
