  1. Even a limited #NuclearWar could kill a third of world’s population, study shows

    "As escalating tensions among the #UnitedStates, #Russia and #China revive old fears of nuclear war, some researchers are warning that even a limited-scale exchange between such nations as India and Pakistan could have catastrophic consequences for global food supplies and trigger mass death worldwide.

    "A nuclear conflict involving less than 3% of the world’s stockpiles could kill a third of the world’s population within two years, according to a new international study led by scientists at Rutgers University. A larger nuclear conflict between Russia and the United States could kill three-fourths of the world’s population in the same timeframe, according to the research published Monday in Nature Food.

    “'It’s really a cautionary tale that any use of nuclear weapons could be a catastrophe for the world',' said climate scientist and study author Alan Robock, a distinguished professor in Rutgers’ Department of Environmental Sciences.

    "The findings come at a time when — 30 years after the end of the #ColdWar — the threat of a #nuclearholocaust may be greater now than it ever was."

  3. All this waiting around to find out whether we destroy civilization by #NuclearHolocaust, or #ClimateHolocaust has me:

  5. This, of course, will not stop the #Neocons. They are perfectly content to provoke #NuclearHolocaust rather than give up unchallenged control of the planet. After all, they won't have to suffer the fallout. They've taken steps to shield themselves from accountability and from harm. So have their multi-billionaire backers. But they'll be the last dying holdouts of a species doomed to extinction. So, what's to be done?

  6. Even if #Biden were by some miracle re-elected, he likely won't survive his second term, and #KamalaHarris is arguably even more stupid than he is. She cannot competently manage the empire. By the time a viable alternative can be identified and run, the #Neocons—and all of humanity, from COVID19, #ClimateChange, #NuclearHolocaust, or some combination of the three—will be long gone. #US imperial #Hegemony is doomed.

  7. and that having wasted so many resources waging it, won't be able to prosecute a hot war against #China. Right-wingers are stupid, so much so they think they're geniuses. They are perfectly willing to end all life on the planet via #NuclearHolocaust in order to secure their rule over the world. At what point do we HUMAN beings stand up in defiance of this insanity and put, once and for all, the long overdue end to it?

  8. Not that the #Neocons care, of course. We are peasants to them, so our fates don't matter at all to them so long as they maintain unchallenged rule over the entire planet. They are also perfectly willing to plunge the whole world into planet-killing #NuclearHolocaust if they can't have their way. That's how utterly insane they are. We are governed by literal #psychopaths. How else does one explain #HillaryClinton cackling as she gloats over the murder of a foreign leader?

    Ouch, so #TulsiGabbard appears to have (finally) spoken out about the fact that #policymakers appear willing to cause #nuclearHolocaust, and use their "underground bunkers" for such.

    This is stuff thinkers have been noticing for a while but to have a past presidentail candidate say that…

    We should all pause and reflect.

    Is this really… *really* the way they want to do it?
