That kind of misses the whole “tipping point” aspect of climate change, wherein crossing a certain threshold is an (essentially) irreversible act.
One could argue that any realistic scenario for WWIII would (unfortunately) involve a broad thermonuclear exchange, and therefore a probable “nuclear winter” scenario, but that global chilling is temporary and the climatic system would revert to its warming trend shortly thereafter (after at most half a decade or so).
