In Norse mythology, Ragnarok is a series of events that include a great battle, natural disasters, and the entire submission of the world in water. It makes sense the Norwegian Netflix original, Ragnarok, based its premise around the original lore, but the writers are putting a bit of a different spin on the myth.

The show is said to be a coming-of-age drama set in the fictitious town of Edda, following the story of the inhabitants who are perhaps not all they claim to be. The show sounds interesting, as they are alluding to climate change as the cause of another Ragnarok -- melting poles, warm winters, violent downpours.
