I responded to a comment using a concept "nuclear winter", in a way not widely used. It was interesting, because I assumed to commenter meant that "humanity powers through with nuclear power during the long winter", compared to nuclear winter as in "humanity attacks itself because of greed and stupidity", as it is commonly used. You then interpreted it in the common way, but explaining it using meteor strike dust plumes, which is not how nuclear winter is commonly explained, as the mode is typically burning stacks of flammable material("guesstimated" first by Carl Sagan and his peers). It's been a long time since I researched the very plausible nuclear winter(stockpile in Switzerland is my plan). Yes, it is also likely that strategic oil fields will be set ablaze by nuclear strikes, another dimension to the nightmare. I don't know how valid this theory is, it seems plausible. It was just an interesting scenario, with nuclear powering us through a catastrophe, man made or otherwise, and with current leadership the best we can hope for. Sweden, my native country, had a similar idea(offensive nuclear capabilities combined with SMRs) in the 50s and 60s, but was eventually(probably for good reasons) cancelled and dismantled it's nuclear weapons program and eventually closed it's first and only SMR in operation, Ågestaverket, eventually building a capable but conventional nuclear industry that provided cheap electricity to the country for decades. https://climate.envsci.rutgers.edu/pdf/WiresClimateChangeNW.pdf https://climate.envsci.rutgers.edu/pdf/WiresClimateChangeNW.... https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%85gestaverket https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%85gestaverket
