Piece by piece, the official covid narrative is rapidly disintegrating-Sunday, January 23, 2022 by: Ethan Huff https://www.afinalwarning.com/587974.html
(Natural News) As the narrative surrounding the Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) global psy-op (psychological operation) continues to break down, here are five things you need to know (as explained by Steve Kirsch):1) Even the World Health Organization (WHO) is warning against covid “booster” shots It made sense to some people to just go along with it when it was just one or two doses. But now that governments want people to take a third or even a fourth injection for the Fauci Flu, many are saying enough is enough.Both EEU regulators and officials at WHO now admit that booster shots do not make sense, which is why they are advising the public against taking them. There is no evidence to support a booster shot program and everybody knows it. 2) More jabs means more infections.They have been trying to hide this fact from the public, but the data clearly shows that the more shots people get, the more likely they are to develop symptoms associated with “covid.”The unvaccinated, meanwhile, are healthier, on average, compared to their “fully vaccinated” counterparts.3) Covid jabs are NOT safe-On top of not working as claimed, covid injections are also unsafe. Many formerly pro-vaccine doctors and other health experts are speaking out against the shots, warning that they do not work.“This is great news,” Kirsch writes. “Nobody is going public yet, but they are all [upset] and realize they have been misled. It will not be pretty. This is of course great news.”4) Face masks do not protect against disease (hint: they spread MORE of it)-It took a long time to get to this point, but the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has finally admitted that cloth masks are useless at preventing the spread of covid or any other disease.Corrupt CDC head Rochelle Walensky had no way out of fessing up to this truth after data was published showing that face veils are more of a religious rite than a viable medical intervention.“The other mask types don’t work either, but it will take them longer to figure out the obvious,” Kirsh says.“P100 respirators do work but only a small percentage of people know that. I can’t wait to see Rochelle Walensky wear a P100 respirator; after all, she should be modelling best practices.” 5) Young people especially should not be getting “boosted”Even though Tony Fauci claims otherwise, there is zero evidence to suggest that covid injections are safe or effective for young people. In fact, many doctors and other health experts are warning against parents getting their children “boosted,” despite the fact that leftist colleges and universities all across the country are demanding them of students who wish to return to campus.“Someone is very wrong here and for once it isn’t the WHO,” Kirsh says.A few other things Kirsch says people should know is that remdesivir is dangerous and ineffective. It has become standard procedure to administer this drug to covid patients at hospitals across America, but only because Fauci makes money every time remdesivir is injected into a patient’s body.Also, social distancing is a farce. MIT came out with a study back in April which found that avoiding other people and treating them like the walking plague does nothing to stop the spread of disease.“6 feet or 60 feet made no difference,” Kirsch writes. “People still haven’t figured this out.”One of Kirsch’s subscribers pointed out that it was obvious from the beginning that all of this was nonsense. But better late than never, right?
This is a classical social engineering test by the globalists to measure the mRNA vaccine's "maximum tolerated dose" among the populace, while simultaneously killing off Joe Biden's political opposition-Researchers sourcing VAERS data on Covid jabs found what appears to be a deadly political war being waged on red states.When viewing adverse reactions tied to specific batches of Covid vaccines, the analysts found highly toxic vaccine lots being channeled towards conservative areas.This exclusive Reese Report breaks down how the globalists are deploying deadly vaccine batches in red states to punish their political opposition and pave the way for the Great Reset.Former Pfizer Vice President and Chief Science Officer Dr. Michael Yeadon discovered through reverse-engineering VAERs data that some batches of the COVID vaccine are far deadlier than others.More specifically, about 0.5% of the vaccines were found to be “highly toxic”, and result in hospitalization, disabilities, and even death within days or weeks of the injection.However, most of the batches appear to be harmless placebos.But the data reveals something even more chilling: coordinated deployments of the harmless and toxic batches by Pfizer, Moderna, and Janssen to monitor the vaccine’s effects on the public in an experimental setting.This mode of deployment allows governments the ability to direct deadly batches of the vaccine into specific populations — such as red states.In fact, the VAERs data reveals that red states have seen a much higher number of vaccine deaths per capita than blue states.According to researcher Craig Paardekooper, the reason for this discrepancy is that red states have been delivered double the amount of lethal batches that blue states received.This is a classical social engineering test by the globalists to measure the mRNA vaccine’s “maximum tolerated dose” among the populace while simultaneously killing off Joe Biden’s political opposition.
Some batches/lots are associated with excessive deaths, disabilities and adverse reactions. This variation could be due to - variation in the amount, meaning the number of doses distributed for a particular lot, OR variation in the toxicity of the doses Both factors may play a part. Until we know for certain, it is best to be cautious.You can use this website to find out the number of deaths, disabilities and illnesses associated with your particular batch code. The sheer number of deaths and disabilities is cause for concern - far exceeding the adverse events associated with flu vaccine lots of equal size.The Significance of Lot Expiry Dates-So we have a list of the expiry dates for all the vaccine lots. So what! Well, heres why this list is important..The govt makes available to medical practitioners a list of expiry dates for all lots. However the CDC keeps this list a guarded secret from the general public (why would that be, I wonder?). However, a contact passed on this list to me. I noticed that the lots on the expiry list are ALL of the ones with the highest number of adverse reactions reports (ADRs) in each alphabet group. I wondered why that was so? Why were none of the other lots on the expiry list - those with only a handful of adrs? (I had previously surmised that the others could be placebo.)Then it occurred to me that only the biologically active lots will be on the expiry list, because a degradation of the biologically active ingredients would pose a greater danger than the degradation of a placebo. That’s possibly why the cdc did not want the public to get hold of this list. They only release it to medical professionals - for "security" reasons - because it reveals which are placebos, and which are biologically active - CDC Expiry List and Biologically Active Lots-if a batch is not on the list then it is a placebo ! So now we have a list of all the biologically active lots. This is obviously good information for people trying to avoid toxic batches. Simply check your batch against the expiry list. If it is not there, then the probability is that it is a placebo.Note : Please remember that they introduce new batches that may not be on the existing list, and also that even amongst the biologically active lots there is still considerable variation of toxicity - one bad lot may not be the same toxicity as another.-Note : This expiry list may only apply to USA batches. It may not apply to European batches - which often have different batch codes-Testing out this idea -IF lots with an expiry date are lots that are biologically active,THEN lots with an expiry date should be associated with far more adverse reactions than lots without an expiry date.....This is, in fact the case. See - CDC Expiry List and Biologically Active Lots-Moderna Lot Expiry Dates-Vial Lookup Tool-Expiry dates for 356 Moderna Batches-Pfizer, Moderna and Janssen Lot Expiry Dates Expiry dates for 439 Biologically Active Lots for Moderna, Pfizer and Janssen (does not include placebo lots)-The source for the above "Biologically Active" list is- Source 1 An additional source is here http://leadingageny.org/home/assets/File/Vaccine%20Lot%20Numbers%20Expiration%20(1).xlsx . (You may need to copy and paste this url into a browser window)-Using Expiry List to Determine if Your Batch is Safe-Expiry dates are issued only on biologically active lots - and it will be listed on the above spreadsheet named -"Expiry dates for 439 Biologically Active Lots......"This is a "rule-of-thumb" way you can check to see if your lot did any damage, or if it was just a placebo. Having a definitive list of biologically active lots, also enables us to provide a more accurate figure of what percentage of the lots are dangerous.Using Expiry List to Determine Which Batches are Not Typos-The CDC issued a list of 439 batch codes with the corresponding expiry dates, so we know at a minimum that these 439 batches/lots are real batch codes for real batches - rather than erroneous inputs by vaccine recipients.Now, when we look at VAERS to see how many adverse reactions, deaths and disabilities are associated with each of these 439 batch codes, we find the same massive variation as before - adverse reactions varying 1000 fold between the batches.Do Vaccinators Disregard Expiry Dates for Biologically Active Lots ? As you can see in the table below, vaccinators carried on vaccinating with Moderna batches from series J, K, L, M, A , B beyond the date of expiry Are some batches more toxic than others? If a vaccinator is paid £12 for each vaccine shot, then they may not have wanted to throw away expired vaccine, regardless of the effects on the health of the recipient. This should not surprise us, since they also disregard the safety signals from deaths, disabilities and illnesses following vaccinations.
UK Scientist Reveals
Bombshell Data Analysis: Tracks Batches Of Pfizer, Moderna and Janssen,
Finds "..Some Batches Are 50 Times Worse Than Others"
App
"How Bad Is My Batch?" Allows People To Input Batch Code And See How
Many Deaths, Disabilities and Illnesses Associated With That Batch "1 in
200 Lots Contain Deadly Ingredients"
I
was told about the work of Craig Paardekooper by my friend of many
years, PhD bio-chemist Dr. Dave Rasnick a few days ago; Today came this
email from Dave, clarifying his shocking findings:
“ I’m
following the very important work of Craig Paardekooper at Kingston
University London. Recently, I introduced Craig’s work to our email
group.
The
companies purposely manufactured non-uniform formulations of their
vaccines while representing to the public that all COVID-19 vaccines
from a given manufacturer were uniform in their formulation.
Over 20,000 different batches (lots) of Pfizer, Moderna, J & J injections total.
1
in 200 lots contain deadly ingredients. He urged me to watch a series
of videos, in which he lays out the unthinkable. One video here:
Another, “Death By Alphabet: Moderna Batch Codes And Associated Deaths:” here
“Please share with those you know, and also with doctors, nurses and
teachers - who may soon be pushing the vax onto children. Doctors and
nurses need to see that some batches are 50 x worse than others - before
they prescribe them.”
“Moderna Used the Alphabet to Label Different Toxicities of Vaccine
Moderna
batches belong to two main groups - 20A or 21A - the 20A group is much
more toxic. In fact all of the batches producing more than 1780 adverse
reaction reports - all of those batches have batch codes ending in 20A.”
“I ranked all the Moderna vaccine batches in order of the
number of deaths caused, and used the data from the highest 180 batches
as my data set.
As shown in my previous videos, Moderna batches have an alphabet letter in the centre of their batch codes…”
”I
just stumbled upon it,” he said. “Every morning I spend an hour or two
going to the usual places, I go to, to find information. Last week or
something I came across one of his talks. Odyssey or something. And then
found his website. He had done a series of videos. These analyses are
of the US VAERS data. That’s available to anybody. There are huge number
of reports in VAERS. What he has done is that …the guy must have a lot
of time on his hands because VAERS is a pain in the ass to use normally.
There’s almost a million reports now on the Covid injections….from this
guy I learned there are 20,200 batches. That includes all 3— Pfizer,
Moderna, and Janssen. He has done an analysis by batch number. One batch
has about 20,000 jabs. There are 20,200 lots numbers. We know there are
billions of these already ordered and shipped. The important thing is
that it’s a huge data base. He has correlated over time the reports of the severity of the jabs over almost a year now.”
Dr. Rasnick described how Paardekooper charted a roller coaster of
adverse events patterns, not random, but highly variable. They went up
and down, forming patterns. “He was able to show that they had done a
dosing regimen where the earliest ones had highest toxicity, some a lot
less toxic…This is exactly what any scientist wants to see, this volume
of data. These companies are working in concert so they did not interfere with each other’s results. The toxicities are very specific, and they come sequentially.”
”All
of that non-randomness was the key. As soon as you see that… if I was
on a jury I wold convict those people of grievous bodily harm and
willful homicide.”
I asked what he knew about Paardekooper.
“He’s
not a PhD yet,” Dr. Rasnick said. “He’s at Kingston University, in
London. We’ve had exchanges, he answers my emails promptly. He reminds
me of….well, he’s not beholden to anybody. I knew something like that
could be done if somebody had all that data. It’s a huge, extraordinary
effort. If it was only a few thousand data points that would be one
thing, anybody could do that, but this is about a million data points.
Batch codes and toxicity. The December 4th video, that’s the one that
shows coordination.”
WELL HERE AT THE VILLAGE OLD AGE HOME. WE GOT THE DEADLY VACCINES. I ASKED THE NURSE ON TONIGHT IF OUR VACCINE SHOTS HAD AN EXPIRY DATE AND NEEDED TO BE REFRIGERATED. SHE SAID YES. AND MY FIRST SHOT WAS PFIZER. SO I AND ALL OUR RESIDENTS HERE GOT THE DEADLY SHOTS. 8 RESIDENCES HAVE DIED IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS HERE. AND FOR THE LAST 3 DAYS MY SNOT HAD BLOOD WITH IT WHEN I WOKE UP. AND A FEW TIME AFTER I HAD A DUMP THERE WAS BLOOD WHEN I WIPPED MY BUTT. I ASKED THE NURSE ABOUT THE BLOOD IN MY SNOT. SHE SAID IT WAS DRY AIR. I ACCEPTED THAT. THEN LAST NIGHT I HAD BLOOD AFTER I HAD A DUMP AGAIN. AND I ASKED THE WORKER. AM I HAVING BLOOD CLOTS BECAUSE OF THE VACCINES AS I HAVE BLOOD AFTER I DUMP. SHE SAID DO YOU HAVE BLOOD ANY TIME EXCEPT AFTER YOU DUMP. I SAID NO. SHE SAID YOU PROBABLY HAVE HEMMOROIDS. AND THAT WAS IT. BUT NOW SINCE THIS STORY TODAY. AND THEIR DYING LIKE CRAZY HERE THE LAST 2 MONTHS. AND WE HAD THE DEADLY VACCINES HERE. I`M NOW POSSITIVE I HAVE BLOOD CLOTS OR SOMETHING SERIOUS FROM THE KILL SHOT VACCINES.
Canada's change to Pfizer vaccine storage temperature has major implications on rollout-Health Canada now recommends storing Pfizer vaccine at fridge temperatures for up to 1 month-Adam Miller · CBC News · Posted: May 19, 2021 4:00 AM ET | Last Updated: May 19, 2021
A health-care worker prepares a dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at a clinic in Toronto on Jan. 7. Health Canada announced Wednesday it now recommends allowing the Pfizer vaccine to be stored at fridge temperatures of between 2 C and 8 C for up to a month. (Nathan Denette/The Canadian Press)-The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine can now be stored at typical refrigerator temperatures in Canada for weeks longer than previously thought, which could have major implications on the rollout of vaccines across the country and around the world.Health Canada announced Wednesday it had authorized a submission from Pfizer-BioNTech to allow the vaccine to be stored at temperatures of between 2 C and 8 C for up to a month — up from the previous five days.The move comes after the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended the change to the "more flexible" storage conditions for the vaccine on Monday, saying it could have a "significant impact" on the deployment of vaccines throughout the European Union.The EMA said unopened, thawed vials of the vaccine can be stored at temperatures of between 2 C and 8 C for a total of 31 days, up from the previously approved five days, after it analyzed additional data from Pfizer on the stability of the vaccine. CBC News pressed Health Canada on Monday about whether it would authorize a similar request from the company here, but a spokesperson for the federal agency said the submission was still "under review."Health Canada then updated its guidance Wednesday, allowing for thawed Pfizer vaccines to be kept at fridge temperatures for up to one month. Vials thawed at room temperature (up to 25 C) for 30 minutes must be used immediately, according to the vaccine's product monograph. A spokesperson for Pfizer Canada said Wednesday the company made the request for the storage temperature changes to Health Canada on May 10, based on new data from stability studies that confirmed the quality of the vaccine for up to 31 days. The vaccine is typically transported at temperatures between –80 C to –60 C in Canada. The company says the formulation of the vaccine remains unchanged following the approval, adding that the extended storage period is effective immediately and applies to all current and future batches in Canada."This approval allows significantly more flexibility in the distribution of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to clinics across the country while maintaining our ability to deliver large volumes on a consistent basis," Christina Antoniou, Pfizer Canada's director of corporate affairs, told CBC News."Given the importance of enhancing the distribution and administration process on the ground, Pfizer and BioNTech will continue to explore additional potential solutions to meet vaccination needs around the world."Dr. Zain Chagla, an infectious diseases physician at St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton and an associate professor at McMaster University, says changes to how the thawed vaccine is stored could break down barriers to access in Canada — especially as second doses roll in.He says a longer storage time and more stable temperature would allow family physicians, homeless shelters, pharmacies, jails, pop-up clinics and eventually schools to keep Pfizer vaccines longer and potentially administer more doses.Dr. Isaac Bogoch, an infectious diseases physician at Toronto General Hospital and member of Ontario's COVID-19 vaccine task force, said the change in storage temperature would also make the vaccine easier to transport outside Canada's major urban centres."By mitigating these cold chain limitations, you can just more readily get this vaccine out to more places," he said. "It just basically makes this vaccine much more usable and much easier to scale to larger populations."Pfizer saying its COVID-19 vaccine could be stored at much warmer temperatures than previously stated would be great news for Canada if the change is approved here, says infectious disease specialist Dr. Isaac Bogoch, as it would make distribution much easier. 3:14-Bogoch says the proposed change could also lessen the pressure on individual provinces and territories when it comes to doses potentially expiring."You're just not going to have this vaccine expire, because you've got more wiggle room and more time that it can sit in conventional refrigeration," he said. "You just have the potential to vaccinate more people."Pfizer storage challenged Canada's early rollout-Canada's early deployment of the Pfizer vaccine was hindered by its complicated temperature requirements, which forced provinces to get creative in order to deliver it to vulnerable populations quickly.Quebec took the bold step of actually putting its vaccine distribution centres inside long-term care facilities.British Columbia moved the Pfizer vaccine from its distribution sites almost immediately into long-term care homes to inoculate residents and staff upon receiving its first doses.Ultra-cold storage and slowing transmission: Your COVID-19 vaccine questions answered-Yet Ontario initially decided against bringing it directly into long-term care homes. The province only did so more than three weeks after receiving its first shipment — prioritizing health-care workers instead.Bogoch says provinces were told in December that the vaccine shouldn't be moved after being thawed and that clinics should administer it at the same location and that the province was in contact with Pfizer about the issue at the time. Demand for medical freezers jumps on positive COVID-19 vaccine data-Chagla says more provinces would have followed Quebec's model of distributing the vaccine from long-term care homes first and hospitals second if they had known the vaccine was stable at fridge temperatures. "It would have helped with decentralizing the vaccine rollout and it took a month or two before we could start [doing that]," he said. "This could have very well started — even for the high risk groups — decentralizing it and really getting it into places where the vaccine is hard to reach." While an adjustment to the length of time the Pfizer vaccine can be stored and the more manageable temperatures for distribution could give Canada more flexibility in its rollout, the global benefits could be even more significant.Alyson Kelvin, an assistant professor at Dalhousie University and virologist at the Canadian Center for Vaccinology and the Vaccine and Infectious Disease Organization in Saskatoon, says the change in recommendations are "exciting.""It will have a global impact, especially in light of the recent problems plaguing AstraZeneca," she said, referring to the rare but serious blood clots that can occur after that COVID-19 vaccine. "The increased stability will allow the Pfizer vaccine to be more easily accessible in remote locations across the world." As India sees record COVID-19 cases, experts say Canada should do more to expand global vaccine access-Chagla says it could also allow for the Pfizer vaccine to be transported more easily to countries experiencing devastating surges of COVID-19, such as India, which recorded the highest number of deaths in a single day of any country on Tuesday."From a global standpoint it's huge … you could really expand how you do a vaccine campaign globally," he said. "As long as you can transport it to point X and then put it in refrigeration temperature you have a lot more options." Bogoch says we could potentially see this vaccine transported on "the back of a motorcycle" or the "back of a lorry" in smaller clinics in developing nations. "This really helps because you can mobilize this vaccine more readily in lower resource settings outside of bigger centres. I think that's the key point," Bogoch said. Kelvin says she hopes the potential change in storage conditions could even bring down the cost of the Pfizer vaccine since ultra-cold temperatures of up to –80 C may not be necessary for shipping. The Pfizer vaccine is estimated to cost about $19.50 US per dose in the United States, a price that Kelvin says is "astronomically" higher than the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine. It ranges from between $2 and $5 US per dose.
Japan suspends 1.6 million Moderna Covid vaccine doses over contamination concerns-Published Updated Thu, Aug 26 20218:17 PM EDT-Rich Mendez @richmendezcnbc
Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare suspended the use of more than 1.6 million doses of Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine Thursday following reports of contaminated vials at multiple vaccination sites there.Takeda Pharmaceuticals, which distributes the vaccine in Japan for Moderna, said it notified the ministry after several vaccination sites reported an unspecified foreign object found in one specific lot.“We requested that Moderna, the product owner and manufacturer, conduct a thorough investigation to determine the precise root cause of the issue,” Takeda said in a statement.Takeda also said that it is not aware of any “significant safety concerns” stemming from the contaminated doses-Two years since Covid was first confirmed in U.S., the pandemic is worse than anyone imagined-Judge blocks Biden vaccine mandate for federal workers in latest blow to White House Covid agenda-Kids’ Covid hospitalizations hit pandemic high, worrying doctors and parents-Children under 5 aren’t eligible for Covid shots. Doctors have this advice to protect them from omicron.Omicron might be the worst Covid gets when it comes to transmissibility, experts predict.Arguing with your partner over Covid? You’re not alone, with the pandemic straining many relationships-Moderna said it’s been notified of the problem and is looking into it.“The company is investigating the reports and remains committed to working expeditiously with its partner, Takeda, and regulators to address this,” Moderna wrote in a statement.Moderna said it believes the manufacturing issue was generated in one of the lines used at its contract manufacturing site in Spain, adding that it didn’t appear to affect the safety or efficacy of the shots.“Given the company’s priority to assure quality, and out of an abundance of caution, Moderna has put this lot and two adjacent lots on hold,” the company said.Rovi, the Spanish pharma company that bottles Moderna vaccines, said it is investigating the situation and that the contamination seems to be limited to some batches meant to be distributed to Japan, according to Reuters. Rovi shares dropped 13% in midday trading.Takeda discovered the contaminated vials on Aug. 16 and reported it to Japanese officials on Wednesday, according to NBC News. The company said the delay was because the contamination of the vials and affected countries needed to be confirmed.Japan’s chief cabinet secretary, Katsunobu Kato, told reporters Thursday that contaminated doses were administered to an unknown number of Japanese residents, though there have been no reports of ill effects, according to The New York Times.Doses from the contaminated lot were administered between Aug. 6 and Aug. 20 at a vaccination site in Osaka run by Japan’s defense ministry, according to Reuters, but it is unclear if any of the doses used were contaminated.Doses from the contaminated lot were set to be used at mass vaccination sites at large companies and universities, but all have been halted, according to Reuters.All of the contaminated vials were manufactured in Spain. It is still unclear if other countries besides Japan have been affected, though the European Medicines Agency said it’s also looking into the issue.“EMA is investigating the matter and has requested the marketing authorisation holder to provide information on any potential impact on batches supplied to the EU in addition to details on the ongoing root cause investigation,” the agency said in a statement to Reuters.Moderna told CNBC there is “no evidence” that other countries could have been affected because “the lot comes from a batch that was manufactured exclusively for Japan.”Moderna said there is no “expected timeframe for completion” of the investigation into the contaminated doses but that it is working with its contract manufacturer, its distributor and the government.
‘Slow-roll’ protest planned by Quebec truckers against COVID-19 vaccination mandate-By Brayden Jagger Haines Global News-Posted January 20, 2022 12:12 pm
CBC-Hundreds of truckers set off from B.C. for Ottawa in 'Freedom Rally' against federal vaccine mandate-Sun, January 23, 2022, 6:43 p.m.
Hundreds of truckers set off from British Columbia to Ottawa on Sunday to protest a federal vaccine mandate despite the urgings of the country's largest trucking union to comply.The protest has been dubbed the "Freedom Rally" against the federal mandate for cross-border truckers, which went into effect on Jan. 15.Canadian truck drivers now need to be fully vaccinated if they want to avoid a two-week quarantine and pre-arrival molecular test for COVID-19 before crossing into Canada.The Canadian Trucking Alliance and the American Trucking Associations say up to 26,000 of the 160,000 drivers who make regular trips across the Canada-U.S. border are likely to be sidelined as a result of the vaccine mandate.It sparked a movement online to protest the mandate, with a GoFundMe raising money for the trucking rally raising over $2.5M as of Sunday."The goal is we're going to get [to Ottawa] by next Friday, the 29th, and demand these mandates get stopped," said rally attendee Candace Hill on Sunday.Hill was speaking from Delta, B.C., where supporters and truckers had gathered before setting off on their cross-country trip.The protesters were supported by anti-vaccine-mandate protesters throughout the province, including in Kamloops in B.C.'s Interior.Candice Camille, a photographer who attended the Kamloops rally, said she was pleasantly surprised by the turnout there."For me, the mandates need to change to fit our society's lifestyle and people's freedoms," she said."[The mandates should also] give the people the protection and the support on the other side, the people who feel like they need that protection and support."Trade associations on both sides of the border have said the restriction would put additional strain on supply chains amid the latest COVID-19 surge and severe worker shortages.But the Canadian Trucking Alliance (CTA), a federation of the country's trucking unions, put out a statement on Saturday strongly disapproving of the protest.The statement says that the CTA's members should choose to hold an organized protest on Parliament Hill instead of disrupting public roadways and border crossings for over a week."This regulation is not changing so, as an industry, we must adapt and comply with this mandate," said CTA president Stephen Laskowski in the statement."The only way to cross the border, in a commercial truck or any other vehicle, is to get vaccinated."Laurent Flambourari, a truck driver and instructor at PBX Logistics in Burnaby, B.C., said the protests are a "bit too late" given the vaccine mandate went into effect a week ago."You have the total right to not get vaccinated. But again, that has an impact on your life and the consequences which comes along," he said.

Nuclear bombs trigger a strange effect that can fry your
electronics — here's how it works-Dave Mosher-Jun 7, 2017, 10:05
AM-electromagnetic pulse emp nuclear bomb blast electricity.
Nuclear
blasts trigger an effect called electromagnetic pulse, or EMP. EMP can
disrupt or even destroy electronics from miles away.Blasts miles above a
country like the US might severely damage its electric and
telecommunications infrastructure.A nuclear detonation creates plenty of
terrifying effects, including a blinding (and burning) flash of light, a
building-toppling blast wave, an incendiary fireball, and radioactive
fallout that can drift for hundreds of miles.But there's a lesser-known
consequence of a nuclear explosion that can drastically expand its
damage zone: an electromagnetic pulse, or EMP.EMPs are rapid, invisible
bursts of electromagnetic energy. They occur in nature, most frequently
during lightning strikes, and can disrupt or destroy nearby
electronics.However, nuclear EMPs — if a detonation is large enough and
high enough — can cover an entire continent and cripple tiny circuits
inside modern electronics on a massive scale, according to US government
reports. The power grid, phone and internet lines, and other
infrastructure that uses metal may also be prone to the effects, which
resemble those of a devastating geomagnetic storm.Savvy readers called
this to our attention after we published expert advice on why you should
never get in a car after a nuclear bomb is detonated. Brooke
Buddemeier, a radiation expert at Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory, suggested sheltering deep within a building instead, and
tuning in to a radio for instructions. In response, a reader pointed out
that "radios, computers, anything that use[s] electrical transmission
to power itself will be effectively neutralized" by the bomb's EMP.This
may be correct — but fortunately only in very specific and rare
situations.How electromagnetic pulse worksNuclear explosions don't make
EMPs directly; the effect requires a couple of key ingredients.The first
is a nuke's invisible burst of gamma rays, a form of light typically
emitted by the "hottest and most energetic objects in the universe,"
according to NASA. A small fraction of a bomb's energetic yield —
between 0.1% and 0.5% — is emitted as gamma rays. These slam into air
molecules, knock off electrons, and accelerate the negatively charged
particles to about 90% of the speed of light.Earth's magnetic field then
shuttles many of these high-speed electrons toward the planet's poles
in a corkscrew-like pattern. The electrons respond to this movement by
letting off their newly acquired energy as a powerful soup of
electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves.This is a nuclear
electromagnetic pulse. It happens within a fraction of a microsecond,
and the surge of energy can overload or "shock" sensitive electronic
devices — especially the kinds we heavily rely on today.nuclear bomb-A
nuclear test blast."[T]he radiation can be collected by metallic and
other conductors at a distance, just as radio waves are picked up by
antennas," according to an unclassified 1977 report from the Department
of Defense and Department of Energy."The energy from the EMP is received
in such a very short time, however, that it produces a strong electric
current which could damage the equipment," it said. "An equal amount of
energy spread over a long period of time, as in conventional radio
reception, would have no harmful effect."When EMP passes through metal
objects like a phone, computer, or radio, they can "catch" this
incredibly powerful pulse. This can generate a rogue current of
electricity that moves through a modern device's tiny circuits and can
disrupt or even destroy them. Power transmission or telecommunications
equipment, meanwhile, can overload from the excess current, spark, and
fail for miles around.If you've ever turned on a microwave oven and
noticed your phone's Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection momentarily drop out,
you've experienced disruptive electromagnetic waves — and had a very
small taste of what could happen with an EMP.The intensity of a nuclear
detonation's EMP is about 30,000 to 50,000 volts per meter — thousands
of times greater than the one your microwave bleeds off.Fortunately, not
all nuclear blasts are created equal when it comes to EMP. Why altitude
is everything-Nuclear detonations that occur dozens or hundreds of
miles above Earth could have devastating consequences compared to those
that happen on the ground.At a high elevation, gamma rays can more
easily spread out, hitting many upper-atmosphere air molecules over a
large area at once. The low density of air allows electrons to move more
freely and maximize the intensity of an EMP.A 2008 report by the EMP
Commission suggests that the right nuclear device detonated at the right
altitude could bathe the entire continental US in EMP, disrupting
telecommunications and power grid infrastructure to "catastrophic"
effect. This report is viewed with skepticism by some physicists and
weapons experts, and the EMP threat by some countries, such as North
Korea, is considered "ridiculous and laughable."Still, nuclear EMP is
real. With an explosion close to the ground, however, many of the gamma
rays would slam into the earth. Those rays would have a harder time
creating a large electric field that could generate widespread EMP. And
the greater density of air wouldn't help, either.The US government
actively plans for 15 disaster scenarios, one of which is a
terrorist-caused nuclear detonation that occurs close to the ground with
a yield of about 10 kilotons — roughly 66% as powerful as the Hiroshima
blast.This setup is the one we discussed with Buddemeier, and in that
case he says the nuclear blast itself would give you a lot more to worry
about than bricked electronics or power loss."[T]here would be some
localized EMP effects," he told Business Insider in an email, "but if
you were close enough for you equipment to be damaged by EMP (within a
couple miles), then you are also close enough to be significantly
impacted by the blast wave."nuclear blast zone damage 10 kiloton ground
blast llnl-Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory-Put another way, you
may not survive inside this zone, which can stretch a couple of miles in
diameter. And if you did, you'd have to worry about climbing out of
radioactive rubble before checking to see whether your radio still
worked.It's more likely, Buddemeier says, that within about 5 miles of
the blast "you may have a disruptive impact, which doesn’t 'fry' your
equipment, but can cause 'latch-up' (e.g., like the endless spinning
hourglass on your phone) until restarted."There are hundreds of
variables that determine whether or not an EMP affects electronics,
Buddemeier says, including "the size and orientation of your device, the
structure of the building you are in, plug-in or battery, if it is
behind a surge protector," and so on.Because many radios have simpler,
less sensitive circuitry than a phone, they're likely to be a first line
of information after a ground blast."There is a good chance that there
will be plenty of functioning radios even within a few miles of the
event and that radio transmission towers outside of the impacted area
will still be able to send information on the safest strategy to keep
you and your family safe," Buddemeier says.

-Here's the American Gameplan for Nuclear War with Russia-Submarines are
intended to ensure a massive “second strike” capability to ensure the
destruction of anyone launching a nuclear attack upon the US.by Warrior
Maven
Here's What You Need to Know: Former U.S. Air Force Chief
of Staff David Goldfein mapped out what he would do if Russia attacked
the US with a nuclear weapon.Red lights start flashing in rapid
succession, space-based infrared sensors detect a heat signature,
somebody calls the President...and in what may seem like a matter of
seconds, the US launches an immediate, massive counterattack. F-35s, B-2
bombers, nuclear-armed Navy submarines, missile-armed destroyers,
Ground Based Interceptors and satellites -- are all instantly thrust
into action. Why? An enemy has launched a nuclear attack on the US
homeland, an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile packed with destructive
power...is heading toward North Ameri-Just what would the US do? Are
there a series of steps, protocols and instant counterattack plans to
put in motion instantly? According to US Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.
David Goldfein, the answer is “yes.”Speaking recently at a Mitchell
Institute for Aerospace Studies Nuclear Deterrence event, Goldfein
mapped out what he would do if Russia attacked the US with a nuclear
weapon. He cited a series of rapid, successive steps.Step 1 - call
NATO.-- "Should war with a nuclear power happen - and I’m gonna
primarily use Russia as my example today as the most dangerous nuclear
threat we face - I fully expect three lights to light up on my red
switch phone in the office. The first call will be the Supreme Allied
Commander of Europe - General Tod Wolters - who will tell me what he
needs to join NATO forces to halt enemy activity and blunt their
objectives. By virtue of the speed with which air and space component
deploys and employs, he expects us (US Air Force) to be the first to
arrive as his (halt) and his blunt force. Because NATO is first and
foremost a nuclear alliance "-- Gen. Goldfein.Goldfein extended this
thinking to specify that, in an instant, US and NATO forces would launch
a massive counterattack including, as he put it, “fighters, bombers,
tankers, space, command and control, ISR, cyber, special operations and
aeromedical teams trained and ready for high-end warfare.”This kind of
integrated response raises an interesting and relevant question for
analysis...what would the respective missions be? Time is, of course, of
the essence as millions of lives hang in the balance. An enemy ICBM,
after a fast boost-phase launch, will take about 20minutes to travel
through space during the mid-course phase -- not much time. However,
given the training, forward positioned weapons and range of US assets,
there is time to destroy the enemy ICBM and likely … the attackers
themselves. While specifics regarding which assets might be part of the
plan may not, of course, be available for security reasons...here are a
few thoughts for consideration.Should the attack be several years from
now, forward-positioned nuclear-armed F-35As (F-35s will have nuclear
weapons by then) would enter enemy airspace to instantly attack enemy
air assets, but perhaps of even greater significance, destroy enemy
nuclear-launch sites. Should F-35s be close to the attacking country and
informed of a potential launch by virtue of US-gathered intelligence
information, there may be time for an F-35 to attack the ICBM itself
during the boost phase with missiles, guns or even lasers. Pentagon
officials say these tactics are now in development. F-22s, often cited
as a “first strike, first kill” platform, would likely use supercruise
speed to immediately attack enemy targets. An F-22 would likely be
launched to quickly engage any potential enemy aircraft, given that it
is regarded as the best air-to-air combat platform in the world.
Sensors, air-to-air missiles and even dogfighting ability would help
ensure air supremacy during any possible counterattack. Also, its speed
and stealth configuration might enable it to hit enemy targets faster
than other attack options.F-22s-Bombers, such as the B-2, would likely
use stealth and altitude to go after enemy air-defenses while themselves
eluding enemy radar. Also, like F-35s, B-2s are of course nuclear-armed
with weapons such as the B61-12. Given the speed, and potential
proximity of these air assets, it seems entirely possible that fighters
and bombers might be able to destroy enemy air defenses, nuclear-weapons
launch sites or even, if ordered by the President, wipe out entire
cities. These air platforms could, potentially, attack enemy targets
before a US-launched ICBM could reach its target. With this in mind, it
is not by accident that Goldfein mentioned NATO because the US and its
allies currently have missile defense assets in places such as Romania,
Poland and other strategically-positioned areas. F-35s are also forward
positioned in strategically significant places throughout Europe to
enable rapid deployment if necessary.While some European defenses, such
as land-based Aegis-fired SM-3s, might primarily function as a way to
knock out long-range ballistic missiles traveling within the earth’s
atmosphere -- coming from a rogue state such as Iran -- the US and NATO
are increasingly strengthening European-based ICBM defense as well. A
Congressional Research Report from June 19 called “Navy Aegis Ballistic
Missile Defense (BMD) Program: Background and Issues for Congress,”
talks about how the new SM-2 Block IIA is enabling faster development of
using Aegis BMD for ICBM defense -- both Terminal phase and the end of
space flight or Midcourse phase. Destroyers and cruisers could be better
positioned for response by operating in a maritime environment closer
to enemy territory or launching enemy missiles. The Congressional report
also cites how emerging weapons such as lasers will increasingly
contribute to missile defense.“The potential for ship-based lasers,
electromagnetic railguns, and hypervelocity projectiles to contribute in
coming years to Navy terminalphase BMD operations and the impact this
might eventually have on required numbers of ship-based BMD interceptor
missiles,” the report writes.The Chief’s mention of tankers seems
crucial as well; fighters and bombers will likely need extended dwell
time over targets and therefore need to be refueled. Goldfein also
mentioned Special Operations Forces (SOF), which calls to mind a number
of possibilities. First of all, SOF forces regularly operate within the
borders of countries considered high-threat areas; in many instances,
this presence is specifically designed to deploy highly-trained, mobile
ground-units to attack enemy launch points or command and control assets
from the ground. Details of this kind of mission would of course -
understandably - not be available, but the Pentagon talks often about
forward-operating SOF pursuing missions in high-threat areas.Goldfein’s
emphasis upon Russia seems based on a number of factors, not the least
of which is the countries’ commitment to an “escalate to de-escalate”
nuclear posture and development of low-yield nuclear weapons. Looking
more than a decade into the future, an essay from Air University called
“Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles and Their Role in Future Nuclear
Forces,” aligns with Goldfein's thinking.“No other nation (other than
Russia) is likely to have a force with the number and accuracy of
nuclear weapons needed to threaten US silo-based ICBMs in 2030, although
China has the resources and technology to pose a threat by perhaps 2035
if Chinese leaders choose to expand their arsenal,” the essay states.
(by Dr. Dennis Evans Dr. Jonathan Schwalbe).Following his first comment,
Goldfein described “Step 2.” Call NORAD-- "As soon as I hang up with
him (NATO Commander) there will be two other lights blinking. And I’ll
talk to the NORTHCOM NORAD commander General Terrence O’Shaughnessy and
he’ll team - tell me what he needs to support his increased footprint
for homeland defense"…- Goldfein. (according to a Mitchell Institute
transcript of Goldfein’s remarks)-Homeland defense, it goes without
saying, would include the use of Ground-Based Interceptors. These GBIs
would be launched into space to find and intercept attacking ICBMs. The
Pentagon is fast at work with GBIs, working on new command and control
technology, sensors and targeting. Among other things, this primarily
involves increasing the technical ability to discern actual warheads
from surrounding decoys, debris or other structures. ICBMs not only
break up in flight as its warheads and re-entry bodies separate, but
they also, by design, travel with decoys to confuse GBI sensors and
increase the prospect that a missile will get through. In recent years,
the Missile Defense Agency successfully destroyed an ICBM with a GBI,
and there is much work going on to not only improve sensors, but
integrate multiple interceptors onto a single missile.Earlier this year,
two Raytheon-built Exoatmospheric Kill Vehicles simultaneously
destroyed a mock-ICBM in a March test. “One EKV intercepted the target
and the other gathered test data in what is known as a ‘two-shot’ salvo
engagement,” a Raytheon statement said. In what could be described as a
significant step forward when it comes to the aforementioned goal of
distinguishing decoys from ICBMs, the Raytheon statement added the “EKV
identified the threat, discriminated between the target and
countermeasures, maneuvered into the target's path and destroyed it
using "hit-to-kill" technology." The EKV was cued by Sea-Based X-band
radar and AN/TPY-2 radar.This development, considered both highly
significant and a “first-of-its-kind” technological step forward, does
seem to advance the technical infrastructure needed to fire multiple
interceptors and integrated systems to increase the probability of an
ICBM “kill.” Raytheon is currently working with the Pentagon on this
particular task, through the development of an emerging system called
Multi-Object Kill Vehilce (MOKV). The new system, to emerge in the early
2020s, leverages advanced sensor technology and engineering to
integrate multipe kill vehicles into a single GBI. As sensor and weapons
technologies continue to mature, many senior leaders expect increased
coordination between GBIs, satellites and new weapons such as
space-based lasers or small drone-like systems able to operate beyond
the earth’s atmosphere. Furthermore, there is already ongoing work to
extend the range of SM-3s further into space to intercept as well as
efforts to develop ship-fired lasers able to operate as advanced sensors
to detect enemy weapons.Step 3 - Nuclear Armed Submarines-Goldfein then
cited an often-cited and crucial element of the nuclear triad - nuclear
armed ballistic submarines quietly patrolling the undersea. These
weapons are, among other things, intended to ensure a massive “second
strike” capability to ensure destruction of anyone launching a nuclear
attack upon the US. The concept for this is, as one Navy official once
put it to me, to tell potential enemies contemplating a nuclear attack
on the US….”don’t even think about it.”-- "But there’ll be one more
blinking light on the phone waiting for me and that’ll be the STRATCOM
Commander General John Hyten. And he’ll tell me what he needs to
generate the nuclear forces required for a safe, secure, effective
deterrent against a nuclear armed adversary "-- Goldfein.Overall, while
Goldfein did indicate these steps in a particular order, he emphasized
that they would need to happen simultaneously.-- "Every one of these
missions is no-fail. And every one of these missions needs to be
accomplished simultaneously" -- Goldfein-This article by Kris Osborn

How a small nuclear war would transform the entire
planet-As geopolitical tensions rise in nuclear-armed states, scientists
are modelling the global impact of nuclear war.BY Alexandra Witze

GettyIt all starts in 2025, as tensions between India and Pakistan
escalate over the contested region of Kashmir. When a terrorist attacks a
site in India, that country sends tanks rolling across the border with
Pakistan. As a show of force against the invading army, Pakistan decides
to detonate several small nuclear bombs.The next day, India sets off
its own atomic explosions and within days, the nations begin bombing
dozens of military targets and then hundreds of cities. Tens of millions
of people die in the blasts.That horrifying scenario is just the
beginning. Smoke from the incinerated cities rises high into the
atmosphere, wrapping the planet in a blanket of soot that blocks the
Sun’s rays. The planet plunges into a deep chill. For years, crops
wither from California to China. Famine sets in around the globe.This
grim vision of a possible future comes from the latest studies about how
nuclear war could alter world climate. They build on long-standing work
about a ‘nuclear winter’ — severe global cooling that researchers
predict would follow a major nuclear war, such as thousands of bombs
flying between the United States and Russia. But much smaller nuclear
conflicts, which are more likely to occur, could also have devastating
effects around the world.This week, researchers report that an
India–Pakistan nuclear war could lead to crops failing in dozens of
countries — devastating food supplies for more than one billion people1.
Other research reveals that a nuclear winter would dramatically alter
the chemistry of the oceans, and probably decimate coral reefs and other
marine ecosystems2. These results spring from the most comprehensive
effort yet to understand how a nuclear conflict would affect the entire
Earth system, from the oceans to the atmosphere, to creatures on land
and in the sea.Scientists want to understand these matters because the
nuclear menace is growing. From North Korea to Iran, nations are
building up their nuclear capabilities. And some, including the United
States, are withdrawing from arms-control efforts. Knowing the possible
environmental consequences of a nuclear conflict can help policymakers
to assess the threat, says Seth Baum, executive director of the Global
Catastrophic Risk Institute in New York City, who has studied the risks
of triggering a nuclear winter. “Fleshing out the details of ways in
which it can be bad is valuable for helping inform decisions,” he
says.old-war forecasts-Nuclear-winter studies arose during the cold war,
as the United States and the Soviet Union stockpiled tens of thousands
of nuclear warheads in preparation for all-out assaults. Alarmed by
leaders’ bellicose rhetoric, scientists in the 1980s began running
simulations on how nuclear war might change the planet after the initial
horrific deaths from the blasts3,4. Researchers including the US
planetary scientist and communicator Carl Sagan described how smoke from
incinerated cities would block sunlight and plunge much of the planet
into a deep freeze lasting for months, even in summer4. Later studies
tempered the forecasts somewhat, finding slightly less-dramatic
cooling5. Still, Soviet leader Mikail Gorbachev cited nuclear winter as
one factor that prompted him to work towards drawing down the country’s
nuclear arsenals.After the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the world’s
stockpiles of nuclear weapons continued to drop. But with many thousands
of warheads still in existence, and with more nations becoming nuclear
powers, some researchers have argued that nuclear war — and a nuclear
winter — remain a threat. They have shifted to studying the consequences
of nuclear wars that would be smaller than an all-out US–Soviet
annihilation.Presidents Bush and Gorbachev shake hands at the end of a
press conference about the peace summit in Moscow on 31 July 1991-US

Credit: Peter Turnley/Corbis/VCG via Getty-That includes the possibility
of an India–Pakistan war, says Brian Toon, an atmospheric physicist at
the University of Colorado Boulder who has worked on nuclear-winter
studies since he was a student of Sagan’s. Both countries have around
150 nuclear warheads, and both are heavily invested in the disputed
Kashmir border region, where a suicide bomber last year killed dozens of
Indian troops. “It’s a precarious situation,” says Toon.Both India and
Pakistan tested nuclear weapons in 1998, highlighting growing
geopolitical tensions. By the mid-2000s, Toon was exploring a scenario
in which the countries set off 100 Hiroshima-size atomic bombs, killing
around 21 million people. He also connected with Alan Robock, an
atmospheric scientist at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New
Jersey, who studies how volcanic eruptions cool the climate in much the
same way that a nuclear winter would. Using an advanced NASA climate
model, the scientists calculated how soot rising from the incinerated
cities would circle the planet. All around the dark, cold globe,
agricultural crops would dwindle.But after a burst of publications on
the topic, Robock, Toon and their colleagues struggled to find funding
to continue their research. Finally, in 2017, they landed a grant worth
nearly US$3-million from the Open Philanthropy Project, a privately
funded group in San Francisco that supports research into global
catastrophic risks.The goal was to analyse every step of nuclear winter —
from the initial firestorm and the spread of its smoke, to agricultural
and economic impacts. “We put all those pieces together for the first
time,” says Robock.The group looked at several scenarios. Those range
from a US–Russia war involving much of the world’s nuclear arsenal,
which would loft 150 million tonnes of soot into the atmosphere, down to
the 100-warhead India–Pakistan conflict, which would generate 5 million
tonnes of soot6. The soot turns out to be a key factor in how bad a
nuclear winter would get; three years after the bombs explode, global
temperatures would have plummeted by more than 10 °C in the first
scenario — more than the cooling during the last ice age — but by a
little more than 1 °C in the second.Toon, Robock and their colleagues
have used observations from major wildfires in British Columbia, Canada,
in 2017 to estimate how high smoke from burning cities would rise into
the atmosphere7. During the wildfires, sunlight heated the smoke and
caused it to soar higher, and persist in the atmosphere longer, than
scientists might otherwise expect. The same phenomenon might happen
after a nuclear war, Robock says.Raymond Jeanloz, a geophysicist and
nuclear-weapons policy expert at the University of California, Berkeley,
says that incorporating such estimates is a crucial step to
understanding what would happen during a nuclear winter. “This is a
great way of cross-checking the models,” he says.Comparisons with giant
wildfires could also help in resolving a controversy about the scale of
the potential impacts. A team at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New
Mexico argues that Robock’s group has overestimated how much soot
burning cities would produce and how high the smoke would go8.The Los
Alamos group used its own models to simulate the climate impact of India
and Pakistan setting off 100 Hiroshima-sized bombs. The scientists
found that much less smoke would get into the upper atmosphere than Toon
and Robock reported. With less soot to darken the skies, the Los Alamos
team calculated a much milder change to the climate — and no nuclear
winter.Pakistani spectators watch the Shaheen II long-range missile

Farooq Naeem/AFP via GettyThe difference between the groups boils down
to how they simulate the amount of fuel a firestorm consumes and how
that fuel is converted into smoke. “After a nuclear weapon goes off,
things are extremely complex,” says Jon Reisner, a physicist who leads
the Los Alamos team. “We have the ability to model the source and we
also understand the combustion process. I think we have a better feel
about how much soot can potentially get produced.” Reisner is now also
studying the Canadian wildfires, to see how well his models reproduce
how much smoke gets into the atmosphere from an incinerating
forest.Robock and his colleagues have fired back in tit-for-tat journal
responses9. Among other things, they say the Los Alamos team simulated
burning of greener spaces rather than a densely populated city.-Dark
seas-While that debate rages, Robock’s group has published results
showing a wide variety of impacts from nuclear blasts.That includes
looking at ocean impacts, the first time this has been done, says team
member Nicole Lovenduski, an oceanographer at the University of Colorado
Boulder. When Toon first approached her to work on the project, she
says, “I thought, ‘this sure seems like a bleak topic’.” But she was
intrigued by how the research might unfold. She usually studies how
oceans change in a gradually warming world, not the rapid cooling in a
nuclear winter.Lovenduski and her colleagues used a leading climate
model to test the US–Russia war scenario. “It’s the hammer case, in
which you hammer the entire Earth system,” she says. In one to two years
after the nuclear war, she found, global cooling would affect the
oceans’ ability to absorb carbon, causing their pH to skyrocket. That’s
the opposite to what is happening today, as the oceans soak up
atmospheric carbon dioxide and waters become more acidic.She also
studied what would happen to aragonite, a mineral in seawater that
marine organisms need to build shells around themselves. In two to five
years after the nuclear conflict, the cold dark oceans would start to
contain less aragonite, putting the organisms at risk, the team has
reported2.In the simulations, some of the biggest changes in aragonite
happened in regions that are home to coral reefs, such as the
southwestern Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. That suggests that
coral-reef ecosystems, which are already under stress from warming and
acidifying waters, could be particularly hard-hit during a nuclear
winter. “These are changes in the ocean system that nobody really
considered before,” says Lovenduski.And those aren’t the only ocean
effects. Within a few years of a nuclear war, a “Nuclear Niño” would
roil the Pacific Ocean, says Joshua Coupe, a graduate student at
Rutgers. This is a turbo-charged version of the phenomenon known as El
Niño. In the case of a US–Russia nuclear war, the dark skies would cause
the trade winds to reverse direction and water to pool in the eastern
Pacific Ocean. As during an El Niño, droughts and heavy rains could
plague many parts of the world for as long as seven years, Coupe
reported last December at a meeting of the American Geophysical
Union.Beyond the oceans, the research team has found big impacts on land
crops and food supplies. Jonas Jägermeyr, a food-security researcher at
NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City, used six
leading crop models to assess how agriculture would respond to nuclear
winter. Even the relatively small India–Pakistan war would have
catastrophic effects on the rest of the world, he and his colleagues
report this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of
Sciences1. Over the course of five years, maize (corn) production would
drop by 13%, wheat production by 11% and soya-bean production by 17%
.The worst impact would come in the mid-latitudes, including breadbasket
areas such as the US Midwest and Ukraine. Grain reserves would be gone
in a year or two. Most countries would be unable to import food from
other regions because they, too, would be experiencing crop failures,
Jägermeyr says. It is the most detailed look ever at how the aftermath
of a nuclear war would affect food supplies, he says. The researchers
did not explicitly calculate how many people would starve, but say that
the ensuing famine would be worse than any in documented history.Farmers
might respond by planting maize, wheat and soya beans in parts of the
globe likely to be less affected by a nuclear winter, says Deepak Ray, a
food-security researcher at the University of Minnesota in St Paul.
Such changes might help to buffer the food shock — but only partly. The
bottom line remains that a war involving less than 1% of the world’s
nuclear arsenal could shatter the planet’s food supplies.“The surprising
finding”, says Jägermeyr, “is that even a small-war scenario has
devastating global repercussions”.Nature 579, 485-487 (2020) doi:
