Fictional Movie Connection to Ocean Acidification.

I watched the movie "The Day After Tomorrow." Although the root of this movie's problem wasn't really pollution, I still believe it connects to ocean acidification in some way, or at least pollution in general.

In this movie, the whole world suddenly shifted and tsunamis were hitting and then everything just froze. It was pure chaos. The whole world went out of whack. People were stranded, freezing, dying. The movie doesn't really mention the cause of why there was this major shift but it leaves room for interpretation.

Hypothetically speaking, this could happen to us in the future because of all the pollution we cause. It is unknown, but certainly possible that we could cause the Earth to react in such ways with all the harm we cause towards it. The Earth has to cope somehow and this may be it, and this may be our future, if we don't stop doing what we are doing. The Earth may freeze over and eliminate much of the human race to restore balance. But who knows. I'd rather not find out, I'd rather we stop ruining the world and start improving it. We are parasites to the Earth and it's just not right.
