The Day After Tomorrow

     Everyone has their own depiction of the end of the world and we are all worried on when and how it could possibly take place.  The Day After Tomorrow is a 2004 American science fiction disaster film depicting catastrophic effects of global warming in a series of extreme weather events that usher in global cooling and leads to a new ice age.  It is a great film with intense special effects in which shows the results of long term greenhouse effects.  It is a film with great reality and fact based concept that shouldn't be taken lightly.  Many studies show that the present day climate is very unusually unstable and although the severe and instant wild weather changes shown in the movie may not occur this unstable climate can cause drastic changes in weather.  This movie gets me to think what can really happen if we all keep living the way we are, not minding the effect we have on our environment.  Its a powerful movie that helps me to really step back and take a look at how I am living my life.  Not only to help move to a more sustainable future but also to enjoy life because you never know what can happen.  The plot of the film got me a little nervous about what could possibly happen and that the end of the world could eventually take place.  We all live slightly selfish and yet if even if we make it through our era, don't we want the Earth to be there for the future generations and allow them to have the same life we did?
