The
Day After Tomorrow is a 2004 American science fiction disaster film
directed by Roland Emmerich.
The film shows catastrophic effects of the global warming in series of extreme
weather events that usher in global cooling and leads to a new ice age.
A paleoclimatologist Jack Hall
presented his findings on global warming to the United Nations meeting but
failed to convince them. However, Terry Rapson, a professor of Climate Research
Centre in Scotland believes that Hall’s theories are true and he concluded that
melting polar ice has started to disrupt the north Atlantic current. He contacted
Jack along with the NASA and built a forecast model with their combined data to
make precautionary measures to prepare their fellow citizens.
Across the world, violent weather
causes mass destruction. At the International Space Station, three astronauts
saw a huge storm system spanning the northern hemisphere and this worsened the situation
that latter develop into a massive-hurricane storm with eyes holding extremely
cold air that instantly freezes anything it comes on contact with. US President
Blake suspended all air traffic due to severe turbulence. As the storm worsens,
Blake immediately ordered the evacuation of the southern states of the United
States, transferring all the refugees to Mexico City.
During the deep freeze, the
Vice-President ordered UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters to flown into New York, finding many, many more survivors, now serving as
the President after the death of Blake. The movie concludes with the astronauts looking down at Earth from the Space Station, showing
most of the northern hemisphere covered in ice and snow.
The immediate
forecast that warned the whole nation triggered the survival of many
individuals.
