The Day After Tomorrow: Facing Nature's Threats

In 2004, The Day After Tomorrow portrayed a world thrown into a sudden Ice Age caused by extreme climate events. While it seemed like pure science fiction at the time, new research from the University of Copenhagen suggests that a similar scenario might not be so far-fetched. Scientists now warn there's a 95% chance that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC, a vital ocean current, could collapse by the end of the century. This documentary takes a closer look at the real science behind the film’s dramatic events and explores what such a major climate disruption could mean for our future.
