The UN is not a joke, people just don't understand the purpose of UN. The purpose is for countries to have a public forum where countries can discuss things. Even if something is decided in the UN it becomes the responsibility of individual countries to enforce those decisions. The UN cannot enforce decisions, we tried that with the League of Nations and it was a big failure.
The UN doesn't have the power to do anything against climate change because it was never the purpose of the UN. The UN can only open up a discussion about how to tackle climate change, but any and all actions have to be done by actual countries.
