How would a nuclear war between Russia and the US affect you personally? Here's what detailed modelling says most major cities around the world will experience in nuclear war: - An electromagnetic pulse blast knocking out all communications. - An explosion that melts streets and buildings. - A shockwave that shatters windows and bones. - Soot and debris that rises so high into the atmosphere, it shrouds the earth, catastrophically dropping global temperatures and consequently starving 99% of all

The damaging effects of the light, heat, blast, and radiation caused by a nuclear explosion have been known to scientists since the end of the Second World War. But a nuclear conflict today would create more serious consequences for our planet. #EarthDay | Nuclear Threat Initiative
