# Series.{{Chernobyl}}: Nuclear energy is actually quite safe and one of the most ecologically friendly sources of energy if handled properly. However, between the inherently flawed design of Reactor 4, the inexperienced operators, and the arrogance of the plant's higher-ups in the face of an increasingly obvious and dangerous life-threatening event, practically ensured the disaster to occur sooner or later. And in the process, doom thousands to horrific fates. '''A form of science gone wrong.'''

# GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019.TropesIToP: The human heroes criticize the [[EcoTerrorist eco-terrorists]]' [[spoiler:(mostly Emma's)]] plan to forcibly accelerate the Titans' awakenings and manipulate them into restoring the ecosphere, because no-one has a sufficient understanding of what they're tampering with: each Titan is a living natural disaster in its own right, and the consequences in the probable event that humans make one wrong move could be even more cataclysmic than the eco-terrorists' intended projections already are. It turns out that the eco-terrorists have majorly fucked up by awakening Monster Zero (a rival Alpha Titan about whom far too little was known): Monster Zero/Ghidorah forcibly takes control of the other Titans for his own wants, and he commands them to begin razing down humanity's cities and the global ecosystems. [[spoiler:Even [[DragonInChief Alan Jonah]] calls [[WellIntentionedExtremist Emma]] out for genuinely believing that they could control nature on such a scale, making it clear that he always suspected there was a chance they would lose control and he was fine with it [[MisanthropeSupreme so long as devastation to humanity was assured]]]]. '''Nature-based being fights back against manipulation.'''
# Franchise.MonsterVerse: In ''Godzilla: King of the Monsters'', the humans heroes consist of scientists who are ambivalent (to the point of inaction) about whether or not the Titans they study are the key to humanity's salvation or the gateway to its destruction, and a TragicBigot with multiple {{Fatal Flaw}}s under his belt. The human antagonists are eco-terrorists who believe they can set the Titans loose on the world and then try to control them using an experimental device, without expecting it to spiral out of their control ('''[[NatureIsNotAToy which it does]]''').

However, during the nearly successful demonstration in his home in New York, he neglects to account for the possibility of the star's magnetic field inducing currents on the metals within his own home (or arrogantly assumed it within his ability to control), and the resulting accident kills his wife, and fries the inhibitor chip preventing the arms' AI from controlling him.

'''Why?''': This trope suffers from an extremely unclear definition, with the description not saying anything about what the trope is, and as a result the examples have been [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=16625791060A70071200 brought up]] as being all over the place.

'''Wicks checked''': 0/31

'''Do note too that, due to the unclear definition, categorization will not occur until all wicks are checked.'''
