The possibility of nuclear war, which comes to mind once again with the Russia-Ukraine war, worries the whole world. The speculations about the North Korea’s experiments on the one hand and the US-Russia tension on the other are quite frightening. But while most of these scenarios focused on bombings and horror, researchers at Rutgers University focused on the food crisis that would ensue. According to this, 5 billion people could die of starvation. It has also been claimed that Argentina is the safest country in this situation…
THE SUNLIGHT WILL BE TURNED
In the event of nuclear war, more than 5 billion people could starve to death as ash and soot from burning cities enter the atmosphere and block sunlight. The destruction of local infrastructure will be exacerbated by the impact of a nuclear winter on food crops, according to research published in the journal Nature Food. When ash enters the atmosphere, the cooling effect will peak in a year or so, but the drop in temperatures will take more than a decade and precipitation will decrease.
FOOD SUPPLY WILL DECREASE, LEADING 2 BILLION PEOPLE TO HUNGER
Smoke and ash clouds over major food producers such as the USA, China, Germany and the UK will cause a 90 percent reduction in the world’s food supply. Even if the United States and Russia are not destroyed by nuclear war, their food production capacities will be disrupted. For countries that rely on food imports, the situation will be doubly devastating. Researchers determined that nuclear winter could lead to starvation of 2 billion people.
NORTH KOREA THREAT
As North Korean leader Kim Jong-un announces a new nuclear threat to the Western world every day, missile tests follow each other. South Korean military sources revealed that North Korea launched two cruise missiles from the west coast of Onchon County.
THE SAFE COUNTRY HAS BEEN CERTIFIED
Scientists stated that Argentina is the best place to escape from nuclear fallout and radioactive factors. According to computer simulations, after a conflict in which 100 nuclear bombs were used, it was noted that Australia, along with Argentina, would outlast food shortages as they grow large quantities of resistant grains, especially wheat.
