For the same reason that most video games don't have you playing as the random NPC who has one line about how great the festival is and another line about how awful it is that the monsters destroyed the festival and doesn't do anything else for the rest of the game.
Yeah, any solution to climate change that relies on people of good faith coming together across national boundaries to solve our global problems is a bunch of pie-in-the-sky horseshit and most definitely not something to pin the future of humanity on.
The only thing that's actually going to reduce greenhouse emissions is cost savings; focus on that, build your models around what we can convince people to do with that, then figure out how to save as much of the human race and the natural world as possible in a scenario where we do fuck-all about climate change except when by doing so it makes some rich asshole slightly richer.
One bright spot about living in the post-apocalyptic hellscape we're trending towards is that there's a pretty good chance that your local warlord will decide that capturing former billionaires and making them fight to the death is a fun way to bring everyone together.

Whatever mileage they may get out of claiming oppression, TERF is memorable, fun to say, rhymes with a bunch of other ridiculous things like Nerf and Smurf, and is instantly Google-able. And to a typical observer, a bunch of old rich straight cis white ladies complaining that they're being oppressed is very hard to believe. (and of course the Google-ability also means that when somebody insists they're not a TERF you can ask them to name which specific points of TERFiness they disagree with)
It's a suitable moniker for a crazy fringe movement, and a powerful piece of ammunition against them in and of itself.
