It's possible for both sides to be wrong. But when people like John McDonnell - ex-Labour Shadow Chancellor in case you are not familiar with British politics, and the flavour of politician that's prone to quoting Mao in parliament - start talking about the climate emergency you know it's been hijacked.

As an aside I never believed Labour would really tackle climate change, they are too in-hoc to the unions whose members often work in industries with high emissions. Even their proposed green new deal is dubious: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13563467.2019.1598964 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13563467.2019.15...
