I don't often debate the topic with skeptics, but one tactic one can use is to position the problem in the larger framework that is the absolute environmental disaster of human civilization.
Meaning, you can hardly deny mass deforestation. Wiping out the vast majority of wildlife and most of its habitat. The emptying of the oceans, desertification, pollution, plastics, over-population, over-consumption, the list goes on.
With this I mean to say that our entire way of life is unsustainable regardless of climate change. We have to radically change our ways in any case.
Most people intuitively agree that we are holistically unsustainable. Few would argue against it. This doesn't necessarily make people an advocate for change, but it's a start.
