Answer:
The oceans could become polluted with oil, coal, and other contaminents that would come about when mining in such a grand scale
Explanation:
<span>When the earth spins in a certain direction, the ocean currents move in the opposite direction, sort of like when a car moves forward you are pulled backwards. However, there would still be wind and the gravitational pull of the moon which causes currents. The rotation of the earth just sort of "accents" these. So as a result, you would have many more smaller ocean current cycles.

1.) Tsunamis typically occur by earthquakes generated in a subduction zone. Most earthquakes happen at convergent boundaries, as they are hitting against each other.
2.) These next two parts are by @HistoryGuy but it's relevant here:
"Survivors were affected economically because the tsunami destroyed lots of infrastructure that was crucial to the functioning of the economy, such as telephone poles, water works, etc. It affected them socially because it is obviously devastating to endure that kind of loss of life. It affected them environmentally because lots of raw sewage was leaked onto the streets, leading to health issues."
3.) This is from Juenna Aaons and her Prezi,
"I believe it would be different because America and most Western European cities are well off. They have funds, food, water and probably better options for citizens in general after a disaster on a scale as large as this one. I think we'd fix the damage a lot sooner, and most of the survivors would have accommodations right away."
4.) "<span>The countries effected were devastated. There was a massive amount of damage everywhere, and it was going to cost billions. I also think that the communities banded together and helped each other out, I guess it was a bit of a bonding experience as well. Foreign governments and groups also donated money and offered help to the effected nations."

and my brain
Salt accumulation in the runoff when the snow melts can cause loss of water from the roots of plants leading to the death of the plants. Sufficient amounts of salt could cause fresh water organisms harm in the same manner.
