Here’s How Conflict In Europe And Asia Will Directly Affect The United States

So, why does all this matter? Well, both countries have nuclear capabilities – and both have proven they have long memories and short fuses…no pun intended.

The effects of a limited nuclear war between two countries so far away may not seem as worrisome as the current rhetoric that Obama and Putin are engaged in, but there is a good deal to be concerned about – and it’s not just a bit extra radiation floating around.

Obviously, there would be deaths on a massive scale on both sides of the border, with massively overpopulated cities most likely being the main targets for both sides tens of millions is not and over the top estimate depending on the number of missiles fired.

But it’s the indirect results that will cause a long-term, horrifying global disaster.

The global costs of a limited nuclear exchange would make 20 or 30 million dead seem pretty small if you look at the indirect results.

Here’s the abstract of a report called “Multidecadal global cooling and unprecedented ozone loss following a regional nuclear conflict.”  The report, which has not been widely publicised, (shocking, right?) paints an incredibly bleak picture of what life would be like after a “regional” nuclear conflict.

The main points:

• A limited, regional nuclear war between India and Pakistan in which each side detonates fifty 15 kt weapons could produce about 5 Tg of black carbon (BC).
• This would self-loft to the stratosphere, where it would spread globally, producing a sudden drop in surface temperatures and intense heating of the stratosphere.
• Using the Community Earth System Model with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model, we calculate an e-folding time of 8.7 years for stratospheric BC compared to 4–6.5 years for previous studies.
• Our calculations show that global ozone losses of 20%–50% over populated areas, levels unprecedented in human history, would accompany the coldest average surface temperatures in the last 1000 years.
• We calculate summer enhancements in UV indices of 30%–80% over midlatitudes, suggesting widespread damage to human health, agriculture, and terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.
• Killing frosts would reduce growing seasons by 10–40 days per year for 5 years.
• Surface temperatures would be reduced for more than 25 years due to thermal inertia and albedo effects in the ocean and expanded sea ice.
• The combined cooling and enhanced UV would put significant pressures on global food supplies and could trigger a global nuclear famine.

A regional nuclear conflict is not as limited or as regional as it first appears, is it?

Please get prepared.

I really feel that we are facing some very difficult times. If the insanity of this election isn’t enough to convince you to prepare, please read the links above so you can see how greatly our country is threatened by the possibility of a financial collapse in Europe as well as the rising tensions and impending armed conflict.

Stock up on emergency food and water filtration devices, and get prepared. Once things start happening at a pace that the rest of the country can’t help but notice, it will be too late.
