attacks Emer said that it was necessary to Showcase The increased Unity of people in the face of disaster because of the attacks 270 2829 some scientists criticize the film's scientific aspects paleoclimatologist and professor of Earth and planetary science at Harvard University Daniel P shrag said on the one hand I'm glad that there's a big budget movie about something as critical as climate change on the other I'm concerned that people will see these over the top effects and think the whole thing is a joke we are indeed experimenting with the Earth in a way that hasn't been done for millions of years but you're not going to see another Ice Age at least not like that 26j Marshall Shepard a research meteorologist at the NASA guarded space flight center expressed a similar sentiment I'm hardened that there's a movie addressing real climate issues but as for the science of the movie I'd give it a D minus or an f and I'd be concerned if the movie was made to advance a political agenda 26 according to University of Victoria climatologist Andrew Weaver it's the Towering Inferno of climate science movies but I'm not losing any sleep over a new Ice Age because it's impossible 26 Patrick J Michaels a former research professor of environmental science at the University of Virginia and fellow at the cat Institute who rejected the scientific consensus 30 on global warming called the film propaganda in a USA Today editorial as a scientist I bristle when lies dressed up as science are used to influence political discourse 31 College instructor and retired NASA office of Inspector General senior special agent Joseph guthans called The Day After Tomorrow a cheap Thrill Ride which many weak-minded people will jump on and stay on for the rest of their lives in a Space daily editorial 32 Stefan romor of the potom institute for climate impact research an expert on thermaline circulation and its effect on climate said after a talk with script writer Jeffrey nachmanoff at the film's Berlin preview clearly this is a disaster movie and not a scientific documentary and the filmmakers have taken a lot of artistic license but the film presents an opportunity to explain that some of the basic background is Right humans are indeed increasingly changing the climate and this is quite a dangerous experiment including some risk of abrupt and unforeseen changes luckily it is extremely un likely that we will see major ocean circulation changes in the next couple of decades I'd be just as surprised as Jack Hall if they did occur at least most scientists think this will only become a more serious risk towards the end of the century and the consequences would certainly not be as dramatic as the superstorm depicted in the movie nevertheless a major change in Ocean circulation is a risk with serious and partly unpredictable consequences which we should avoid and even without events like ocean circulation changes climate change is Ser ious enough to demand decisive action 33 environmental activist and guardian columnist George monbiot called The Day After Tomorrow a great movie and lousy science 34 in 2008 Yahoo movies listed the day after tomorrow as one of its top 10 scientifically inaccurate films 35 it was criticized for depicting meteorological phenomena has occurring over the course of hours instead of decades or centuries 36 of 2015

to Showcase The increased Unity of people in the face of disaster because of the attacks 270 2829 some scientists criticize the film's scientific aspects paleoclimatologist and professor of Earth and planetary science at Harvard University Daniel P shrag said on the one hand I'm glad that there's a big budget movie about something as critical as climate change on the other I'm concerned that people will see these over the top effects and think the whole thing is a joke we are indeed experimenting with the Earth in a way that hasn't been done for millions of years but you're not going to see another Ice Age at least not like that 26j Marshall Shepard a research meteorologist at the NASA goded space flight center expressed a similar sentiment I'm heartened that there's a movie addressing real climate issues but as for the science of the movie I'd give it a D minus or an f and I'd be concerned if the movie was made to advance a political agenda 26 according to University of Victoria climatologist Andrew Weaver it's the Towering Inferno of climate science movies but I'm not losing any sleep over a new Ice Age because it's impossible 26 Patrick J Michaels a former research professor of environmental science at the University of Virginia and fellow at the cat Institute who rejected the scientific consensus 30 on global warming called the film propaganda in a USA Today editorial as a scientist I bristle when lies dressed up as science are used to influence political discourse 31 College instructor and retired NASA office of Inspector General senior special agent Joseph guans called The Day After Tomorrow a cheap Thrill Ride which many weak-minded people will jump on and stay on for the rest of their lives in a Space daily editorial 32 Stephan rstor of the potom institute for climate impact research sech an expert on thermaline circulation and its effect on climate said after a talk with script writer Jeffrey nman off at the films Berlin preview clearly this is a disaster movie and not a scientific documentary and the filmmakers have taken a lot of artistic license but the film presents an opportunity to explain that some of the basic background is Right humans are indeed increasingly changing the climate and this is quite a dangerous experiment including some risk of abrupt and unforeseen changes luckily it is extremely unlikely that we will see major ocean circulation changes in the next couple of decades I'd be just as surprised as Jack Hall if they did occur at least most scientists think this will only become a more serious risk towards the end of the century and the consequences would certainly not be as dramatic as the superstorm depicted in the movie nevertheless a major change in Ocean circulation is a risk with serious and partly unpredictable consequences which we should avoid and even without events like ocean circulation changes climate changes serious enough to demand decisive action 33 environmental activist and guardian columnist George monbiot called The Day After Tomorrow a great movie and lousy science 34 in 2008 Yahoo movies listed the day after tomorrow as one of its top 10 scientifically inaccurate films 35 it was criticized for depicting meteorological phenomena as occurring over the course of hours instead of decades or centuries 36 of 2015 Washington Post article reported on a paper published in scientific reports which indicated that global temperatures could drop relatively rapidly 1 Dee Fahrenheit change or 0.5° Celsius change over an 11-year period due to a temporary shutdown of the
