Professor Mark Maslin (UCL Geography) highlights in The Conversation research that used modern climate models to map the effects of a nuclear war, and which found the resulting nuclear winter would plunge the planet into a “nuclear little ice age” lasting thousands of years.
Given that the US is currently debating whether to start a full on WW3, it’s absolutely something to worry about right now.
I’m not talking about nuclear war. I’m talking about the climate after a nuclear war - what the article and the headline is about. The implication of my comment is that there would be no people to worry about the climate because they’d all be dead on account of global thermonuclear war.
Ah yeah, vast majority of human population isn’t going to be worried about much of anything once we’re dead.
