Nordstream happened once and released the equivalent of four days of the US's industrial methane emissions. One-time events and wars generally happen for short periods of time, while industry happens continuously.
Compared to human industry, every war in history is basically a footnote at planetary scale. Global nuclear war might be the only exception, but even the resulting nuclear winter would be very brief compared to the many-millenium impact of industrial climate change.
