True. So the best medium might not be a single movie, but a long-period-spanning series where you would follow "regular" people (possibly from around the world) while they age and come with a changing climate. Sort of "Years and years"[1] but on an even bigger timescale.
Or maybe non-interactive fiction is not the right medium, and we need an mmorpg where every day/week of game play is a year in game-world time, and effects of climate are baked-in ?
And you get to repeat the experience of "from now until 2050" every few weeks ?
