Nuclear war – What will happen if Russia starts a nuclear war: a shocking study – UNIAN

Scientists have told what consequences for the planet will have a nuclear war.

Scientists say what will happen if Russia will start a nuclear war.

New study published in the journal AGU Advances, shows that firestorms will block the Sun and trigger a “Little Ice Age” that will last for thousands of years. This will lead to crop failure and famine in the ocean.

“In the first month after the explosion, the average global temperature will drop by about 13 degrees Fahrenheit (7 degrees Celsius – UNIAN). This is more than during the most recent ice age, which lasted more than 100,000 years, when mammoths became extinct,” the study says. .

Lead author Dr Cheryl Harrison of Louisiana State University said: “Once smoke enters the upper atmosphere, it spreads around the world and affects everyone.”

However, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has brought to the fore the threat of nuclear war, and this study provides for the first time a stark picture of the environmental impact if Putin had reached for the nuclear button.
