Aside from the unimaginable collateral damage of a modern nuke that would render large swathes of land uninhabitable in a region already wrought with trouble, it sets a precedent of using nuclear force that we worked hard to break during the cold war. Avoiding a nuclear winter is more important. But what about global climate change? We could undo the damage caused by greenhouse gases by delibrately throwing some nukes at each other in order to intentionally trigger a nuclear winter. The resulting ice age would re-set earth's climate.

Aside from the unimaginable collateral damage of a modern nuke that would render large swathes of land uninhabitable in a region already wrought with trouble, it sets a precedent of using nuclear force that we worked hard to break during the cold war. Avoiding a nuclear winter is more important. I like explaining this sort of stuff though so I'll assume the latter. Basically nuclear winter assumes at least 100 global firestorms both natural and resulting from nuclear detonation, which means 100 infernos so massive they create a local meteorological event by sheer air pressure displacement. After this these firestorms will throw so much soot and ash into the sky that it blots out the sun, which obviously will cool the planet, but it would also cause substantial ozone depletion, with the 1-2 years of total sun blockage and black rain caused by poorly understood chemical behaviors no doubt ravaging plant life and agriculture further exacerbating global hunger, our now substantially cooled planet will also soon have to contend with solar radiation and higher temperatures than ever. There's also the "nuclear summer" theory that states the decay of plants and animals killed by nuclear winter will cause an abnormally high injection of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere but it seems to be considered an unimportant footnote to the effects of nuclear winter.

RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - OdinYggd - 03-23-2016 I kinda was, since the consequences of such a thing go beyond just causing serious damage to the planet's atmosphere and environment. RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - SCN-3_NULL - 03-23-2016 I still kinda liked vector thrust's lore, the nuclear weapons detonated yelded less fallout than expected and fallout cleanup was improved with modern tech. This mostly removed the taboo of using nuclear weapons though with their major superpowers still rebuilding the power vacuum caused alot of colflict and wars Also patroling the mojave makes you wish for a nuclear winter Reeks, look! https://www.tumblr.com/video/infernopunk/141521297091/500/ Northern white faced hatchling RE: Avali Nexus Forum Thread 3: A crowd. - SCN-3_NULL - 03-23-2016 http://world.taobao.com/item/523855470803.htm?fromSite=main a rathalos mech, I need it!
