The possibility of total annihilation through a nuclear war has been in the cultural zeitgeist since the start of the Cold War. Just the thought alone might be enough to induce nightmares in the masses, but the possibility has not been entirely off the table since then. Yes, the world’s superpowers have cooled down in the last couple of decades, but whenever there is political tension involving these superpowers, the topic seems to resurface.
It is true that nuclear bombs were used on populated cities at the end of World War 2. But this came at a time when the United States was the only nation to yield such a destructive weapon, making Axis powers unable to retaliate.
The potential for harm is significantly higher now when we factor in the fact that there are nearly 12,705 nuclear warheads in the world. And it is theorized that a nuclear war can have a cooling effect on Earth because of the dust and smoke a catastrophic event of this magnitude would create. In this episode of Imagine That, we dive deep into the possibility of a Nuclear Winter and if humanity would survive this event or not.

Semi BS
Peace starts in our mind, words and comments on youtube. Let's try our best to live in peace. There is already enough war, dearth and hate right now
To avoid nuclear "disaster" – it is necessary to destroy terrorussia as soon as possible!
Слава Україні!
Смерть москві!
The optimus prime of human dumbness, using the atomic bombs. 🤭
It will, will just be thrown back around 300 years. So stop pushing us there over Russian backyard, they will hit a reset button, eventually.
Yeah. Put some bananas in the exhaust hose … and that's it for the mighty tank. Tanks are so old school. Modern warfare is sth completely different.
I’m fine with kings being wiped out
The evidence is not particularly strong nuclear weapons would cause a nuclear winter. A volcano can put up massively more material into the atmosphere than nukes can, and cities are designed today not to burn so much. Concrete and steel don't burn.
Best move is not to play
Nuclear war can't even kill more than a billion people because it's just overestimated
stop fear mongering 😡😡
Thankfully No.
Since nuclear is too scary. Humanity uses softer method to destroy each other. Disinformation on social media.
An objective look points to the reality question of when. A nuclear war is inevitable given the ongoing rising trend of authoritarianism and the erosion of democracies through continuous weakening in the separation of powers and the undermining of rule-of-law across the world. Smart and able people are unfortunately switching to the private sector increasingly leaving politics to the unconsciously incompetent. Nevertheless given how hardy life can be, human kind will still survive along with a few other forms of life in a small way and restart civilisation on earth.
can a nuclear winter contrast climate change? like bombs for a 2-5 degrees drop in average temperature
If you're reading this, it's okay to consider this, morally reprehensible to actually contemplate. There is no situation with this on the table that is worth betting your life on.
Make a video on quantum generator patent..
no
Is it possible to do a survival analysis in nuclear winter?
Like the engineering needed to live in an underground bunker, how to generate power, air filtration, sanitation, water recycling, and then if there's power, how to generate food in underground hydroponics etc etc?
Is it possible to build underground networks like ant homes?
It doesn't matter anymore
PRAY FOR NUCLEAR WAR. We've never been so close! Can't wait!!!
Guess We found a way to make greta thunberg happy
Guess it's time to fly to a tropical country before its too late.
Humanity no a few lucky singles. Mabee.
One sure way to combat global warming.
Meanwhile Yetis on the botom of the ocean waiting for this moment for thousands of years
So you didn’t present any factual data, and instead resorted to fear mongering based on disproven outdated research papers.
what a boring video
I hope it will happen because it will trigger the return of Jesus Christ, amen.
In Quran, there is surah call Ad-Dukhan, well the verse is the prophecy of Nuke winter.
In 1958 they thought that 'hiding under your desk for 10 minutes' was enough…
It’s moral to wipe out Russia; the problem is that it’s immoral to put the rest of the planet at risk by doing so.
The Russian and Chinese governments have provided underground bunkers for their citizens in case of a nuclear attack.
The U.S. Government (Which spends more money than all Governments combined) has only provided bunkers for Itself.
They hate you and are trying to get you killed.
The next time someone tells you the Chinese government doesn't care for their citizens, please tell them the truth. It is America that doesn't care for its citizens.
We must do it!! We must nuke each other!
As long as USA is not under obama government . By any means necessary burn this muzzlem government and it's feds out
Just get a bunch of planes with water and spray all the ash to the ground
Would you want to ?😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮😮😮
Wonderfull thoughtful unrushed narration.
No one should be concerned about trying to survive, they should be thinking about ways to end their lives quickly and painlessly if they are unfortunate enough to survive the initial blasts.
Raw Meat Cannibalism is coming.
Nuclear winter has been disproven
Lets find out! ☺
Humanity would survive and rebuild civilization. The odds of the individual surviving is low. And the big question is would you want to survive?
Right
Humans would survive, the most primitive natives would survive because they do not need modern technology.
We're long overdue for another international war of global proportions. The last global war ended almost 100 years ago, and as everyone may well be aware, history LITERALLY repeats itself. Good luck everyone!
London's no big loss really.
Why are they showing nuclear war started from India Pakistan border 🤷
Both countries already fought the 1999 war and many other major conflicts without using any nuclear weapons.
India even has no first use policy. I don't know about Pakistan but India surely has no interest in war.
We must use nuclear technology for energy.
its only 25 years not that big of a deal
As an black american the nuclear war against russia will not be easy but the world needs safe❤
Remember the Donner Party? Many of them still did not survive.
