1. Any nuclear
conflict would lead to global
catastrophe
Recent scientific analysis revealed that a regional
nuclear war would be disastrous not only locally
but will continue on a global scale and broad
effects may extend over a decade, at least. The
researchers cautioned, in a paper published on
the online edition of "minutes of the National
Academy of Sciences," The wildfires that break
out after a nuclear conflict is limited, massive
amounts of soot-class air will be released which is

2. enough to create a hole in the ozone in areas with
high population density, according to the
Associated Press. The ozone hole over Antarctica,
which allows the arrival of the ultraviolet rays of
the sun to the earth, a great concern to
environmental scientists for several decades.
According to CNN. Said Michael J. Mills, of the
University of Colorado, who led the research, said
that in contrast ozone hole, it will be the impact of
the hole that cause any nuclear conflict is limited,
and large-scale, which will lead to the destruction
of plants and animals, and will show millions of
people to infection from various diseases,
including skin cancer, And use the Mills in his
computer programs too complicated to develop a
model for the successor of a nuclear
confrontation scenario between India and

3. Pakistan, and using 50 of the nuclear explosives,
the size of the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. And
will put the blast five million tonnes of soot to an
altitude of 50 miles to class air. The researchers
say that the soot and the heat caused by solar
radiation will lead to a series of chemical reactions
that will lead to the collapse of the stratospheric
ozone layer stratospheric (top layer of the
atmosphere), which protects Earth from harmful
ultraviolet radiation. Mills said in a statement that
"the dramatic decline in the ozone layer will
continue for several years, as will the decline of
the ozone layer, by 40%, in the middle of the
equator profound effects on human health, wildlife
and marine. According to estimates made by the
researchers, will result in damage to the ozone
layer by about 40 per cent, the high rates of light

4. for plants increased by 132 per cent, and will
increase the chances of DNA damage, which is
associated with skin cancer, by 213 per cent. It is
noteworthy that the central region of the equator,
a region between the equatorial orbit and the polar
region, and is more densely populated regions of
the world.
