The Atlantic Ridiculed for Warning Nuclear War Would ‘Wreck’ Climate
Breitbart ^ | 03/13/2022 | Joshua Klein

Posted on 03/13/2022 11:13:26 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

A nuclear war would be disastrous for the earth’s climate, according to a recent piece in the Atlantic that drew harsh criticism for its focus on the harms posed to the environment by a potential nuclear exchange resulting from the current conflict in Ukraine.

The Wednesday essay, titled “On Top of Everything Else, Nuclear War Would Be a Climate Problem,” was penned by Atlantic staff writer Robinson Meyer and began by noting climate change is often associated with energy policy.

The earth couldn’t care less about its climate.

I dunno about the climate, but I’m pretty sure a nuclear war would violate EPA rules on particulates. So it couldn’t be fought.

I thought nuclear winter would be just the thing to stop global warming. Maybe a nuclear autumn from a limited exchange could save the world.

Nuclear winter and global warming were KGB psyops. They were known accademic papers. It was quasi open source after the more or less fall of the Soviet Union (minus ours and their deep state filled with apparatchiks)

Since we cannot even put excerpts of wired mag, here is a link.

Global warming has always been a soviet and post soviet Chicom-Russian propaganda the west bought hook line and sinker, yet wired magazine says Putin promoted vax and climate scepticism is now failing thanks to the taking down of its trolls. Facepalm

Wired mag is the kgb troll

It never occurred to me that nuclear war could be bad for the polar bears and the dung beetles too. Thanks, Atlantic!

“they left out the part where nuclear weapons disproportionately impact people of color”

It’s hard to believe that they didn’t address the single most important issue to every living organism in the universe.

Maybe they should look on the bright side. A nuclear war invariably would include EMP targets and all those carbon emitting earth killers would no longer be a treat Mother Gaia. Who care about the millions of ordinary people that will die?

I keep worrying about the volcano eruptions. How many cow farts would equal ten seconds of volcanic ash?

I spent my college years petrified of nuclear war, now I have to compound war and global warming? A freaking nuclear war will warm up the earth.

Ever hear of a nuclear winter? I am just kidding and I have no idea who to believe. These are journalists what spend tens of thousands of dollars on J-school so they are able to write on a 6th grade level. They are not too bright. Climate scientists are cultists that worship at the alter of scientism. Not damn thing they ever predicted has come true.

Where is it written that cold is better than warm?

Doesn’t anyone else remember the last ice age?

When I was in college the only course of studies that was easier than education was journalism. All I ever observed the J-school students doing was smoking dope and dry-humping on the carpeted floors of the student union.

Notice the Education and Journalism majors do what they do because they want to change the world. That’s kind of ironic because neither possess any ability to build or invent anything to improve mankind.
