Nuclear war is horrible and I hope it never happens. Yet, there are only a few countries that actually have nuclear weapons and the power to use them is concentrated in just a few individuals. This means the vast majority of the global population has no say on the question if nuclear weapons will be used.

However, due to a potential nuclear winter, which could follow a nuclear war, even countries on the other side of the globe could be directly affected by a nuclear war. This impact could be quite severe and as they have no direct measure to prevent it, these countries should think about how they would prepare. Also, many of the preparations that would be helpful for a nuclear winter would also help for the climatic consequences of large volcanic eruptions or asteroid impacts. So, they should be done anyway.

This is the gist of the argument I made in a new article in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. You can read the full article here: https://thebulletin.org/2026/05/how-nuclear-war-would-impact-the-global-food-system-and-how-to-prepare-for-it/
