A fatal car crash, or the & LYNN SCARFF extinction of one animal species can make for a tragic story, but it is not a global catastrophe. The odd thing is, the worse the disaster, nuclear war or malevolent HEAD OF super-AI — the more our stories about them change from tragedy to thriller.

PROGRAMMING & EMERGENCY OF CASE IN Post-apocalyptic narrative can be bleak like Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, DIRECTOR or it can be batty, like Shaun of the Dead. Most lie somewhere in the middle — dangerously tantalising portrayals of survivors of plagues, asteroid-strikes, or SCIENCE GALLERY technological collapse — where we can AT TRINITY imagine ourselves as the lucky few, heroes living by our wits in a well-prepped shelter COLLEGE DUBLIN or foraging in an abandoned landscape — a 21st century Wild West. No rent to pay, no taxes, no urgent emails — would a simpler existence really be so bad? The Futurists espoused the ‘cleansing’ force of war, and the Victorians commissioned uncountable paintings of collapsed civilisations, their classical ruins romantically succumbing to rot. We are in an apocalyptic renaissance, surrounded by dystopian narratives, especially in film where bleak futures sell. It’s worth asking 6 why, and also examining how, our society INTRODUCTION deals with — not just portrays — by portrayals of exactly this, from Netflix these low-odds, high-cost catastrophes. to our national theatre. Scientists working How should scientists and in fields as disparate as immunology communicators cultivate social and astronomy are researching topics conversations about global catastrophic that could have a very real effect on our risks? Simply providing information ability to prevent, prepare for, or survive doesn’t change people’s mind about a catastrophe. We should think carefully climate change, as a study by Martin about our plentiful cultural conversations Pachen for the Purdue Climate Research about catastrophe, where science and Centre indicated in 2006.

From mega-tidal waves in films like The Day After Tomorrow CATASTROPHE AND and Geostorm to howling clouds of ash and dust in The Road and Interstellar, POPULAR CULTURE these images are embedded in our visual culture and help provide a framework for how we think about real catastrophic risks.

Post-apocalyptic scenarios ENGLISH, NATIONAL proliferate in mainstream cinema, and that individual embodiment of the UNIVERSITY apocalypse, the zombie, is everywhere. Even the term ‘apocalypse’ has lost its OF IRELAND, original religious meaning and become a convenient everyday shorthand for MAYNOOTH referring to the set of feared catastrophes depicted in these narratives. So what are we to make of all this bleak imagery?

Even though we know the fictional to the emergency. events are unreal, the emotional impact combined with knowledge of real threats has potentially profound effects. Certainly the endless recycling of catastrophic images works to confirm negative assumptions and may reinforce apathy. However, viewers are capable EMERGENCY OF CASE IN of producing sophisticated responses to even simplistic popular narratives, with surveys showing that people listed many positive changes they would consider making in response to the unrealistic rapid climate-change scenario in The Day After Tomorrow. Adaptation is the key word here — mass catastrophes that cause drastic irrevocable change are relatively rare and adaptability a key human quality. The important thing is to begin to change the narrative, to decouple the prevalent association between the environment and disaster, and to highlight the many positive social changes that adapting to climate change may produce.
