To watch climate change is to know what the deer in the headlights must feel.
Powerless to change alter fate and prevent our death, while being forced to watch it's screeching approach.
Deer usually have ample power to prevent their death; most of the time they have sufficient time to get out of the way, but they do not do so.
Which really makes the comparison even more on point, since as a whole our civilization could have taken action but chose not to.
