For this reason, a long term goal of mine is to move to New Zealand. In retrospect, we probably had a more likely chance than not of the Cold War turning nuclear. There were several extremely close calls averted by dumb luck.
In the next Cold War, especially in light of instability from climate change, we might not be so lucky.
- fallingfrog 8y agoYeah, New Zealand is probably the right place- isolated, Southern Hemisphere so there’s less fallout, English speaking, temperate. Still, in the worst case scenario there will be about a billion starving people flooding down from various places in Asia so even there you’re not really safe. I’m putting my efforts into political organizing as my strategy, I think that there really isn’t any good course of action in the event of nuclear war and prevention is the only good option.
