Nuclear weapons in modern arsenals and their catastrophic effects
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 сен 2022
- Today’s nuclear arsenals are much more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II. Experts are concerned that a modern nuclear war will trigger the feared “nuclear winter”, which could kill 5 billion of the world’s population. Asia First’s Julie Yoo explores the powerful nuclear bombs of today, and atmospheric professor Owen Brian Toon explains the catastrophic effects a nuclear winter can bring.

The fact that we are now serious about the possibility of a nuclear war happening soon is just astounding
I am reassured that people are finally waking up. As long as we make the attempt to avoid nuclear war, it should be avoided easily.
Blame Putin, it’s all greed.
Lol, no worries. It won't occur because due to Russia/Ukraine. Russia is not gonna use any tact nukes in ukraine as a few wouldn't have enough effect to turn to war back in Russian favour. Dropping any nuke at all tho will leave Russia without any allies and an absolute pariah to everyone. NATO is not going to retaliate with nukes if Russia drops one in Ukraine. So it won't happen. Russia is just abusing the fear of nukes by talking about them, tries to bully NATO citizens into telling their leaders to stop providing aid to Ukraine. It's all a game and the media is just clickbaiting.
shows the weakness of our leaders
@@aronbrook2316 Hardly, Russia is just attempting to abuse a modern society by old imperialistic expansionist means. Their rethoric is just a childish attempt at influencing civilians.
I love how leaders of the world talk about using nuclear bombs when they all have bunkers to hide and survive in. Meanwhile, the rest of us have to deal with the consequences of such destruction.
Sooner or later, they won’t be eating with a bunch of cans but cockroaches if they ran out. Too bad they didn’t think of having us living to keep their luxurious goods from depleting easily.
There's only one leader, Putin, who is threatening their use. Unless you want to count North Korea as a threat...
In metro 2033 sequel you come across a bunker of surviving "leaders" they all resorted to cannibalism and killed each other. Plus even if their safe there's not enough people to rebuild or repopulate. So all theyve won is a slower death.
@@psychshift Are you going to eat that?
Trust me, In a full scale nuke war, the lucky ones would be the ones at ground zero; they wouldn't even know what hit them. On the contrary, living in a post apocalyptic nuke war world would be literal hell on earth and full of suffering and death.
I just had a son. It sucks to think about having brought him in a world where this type of future is highly likely…
May God protect you and all of us. I was born in 2001.Gen Z. Wish I grew up in the 1960s
Too,my soon is two years old,it suck to imagine what the future holds.
@@relaxingflights3462 that is such a lie. Did you forget about the Cold War and CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS IN 1962?
Large scale Nuclear War is much less likely now than it ever was. You’re just rambling.
My daughter is almost 1 year old. My wish is she can go to Mars to escape this scenario. Really. But we'll need another 20+ years for this to be possible. And nuclear weapons can end the world, even by *accident*, never mind by malice.

Imagine going back in time 5 years and being able to meet yourself and share what the future will bring? Your 2017 self would be horrified and scared beyond words. We are here now, but because it’s gradual, many people are numb to it and aren’t nearly as afraid as they should be. 😢
this is being spouted as a new development in history, but the fact is the UK and USA have known this would happen at this time. we're being kept in the dark about the actual reasons putin is doing this and his plan has been active for over 10 years. Covid lockdowns were simply the western governments chance to secretly have their citizens practice lockdown proceedures. before covid, most people had no idea how to cope with a lockdown, now we are trained and prepared to stock for weeks, find things to do in isolation and wearing masks were all subtle training of the population for this event.
Yep it’s just gonna happen anyways
💯
@@lang6626 i agree fully. i see the world like a car crash: in that car are putin, kimjonun, biden, and a few other idoits. putin is driving and the others dont like his speed so they all reach for the wheel and the car starts to flip. RIGHT NOW the car is in the air and upsidedown. nothin they do inside the car is going to cause the car to end up driving away undamaged(this is where the planet is rught now, the car has flipped, its just a matter of waiting for the impact). its going to impact the ground first then a large tree. all the occupants can hope for is to survive the crash and recover from the injuries, they have two choices, 1, rebuild the car but dont give it such a powerfull engine, or 2, dont rebuild the car and learn to walk again.
If I told myself what happen, they would probably do something stupid and danger to a point where they would rather with no regret than to live with regret.
My blood ran cold. Please World Leaders , do everything to your power to prevent such scenarios.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they are trying there best to let it happen lol
They don't care, they will be part of the 2% that survives.
Buckle up, it’s coming as long as the west and European countries continue to escalate war with Russia instead of talks. As you continue to isolate Russia, it gets even more dangerous for everyone.

Prof. Owen Brian Toon very clearly sets out just how much of a total disaster nuclear war would be for all of mankind.
How accurate can he be ?
@@bobafett5757 Shall we put it to test?
@@bobafett5757 I think the impact of the nuclear winter in this video may be a worst-case scenario. There was another study done looking at a war between Russia and NATO that indicated that the US would lose about 80 million in the first few days, Europe would lose a similar number and Russia would lose almost 100 million, mainly because Russia's population is concentrated in a small area while the US and Europe are more spread out. These numbers would quickly go up if there the surviving population wasn't moved to unaffected areas and the injured were not properly medically treated. The nuclear winter would be more like a nuclear fall, but crop failures would push the total death toll to about 1 billion. One billion dying is certainly better than five billion dying, but I am not sure whether the person that died instantly in the blast or survived and faced starvation and the tough conditions after the war was the "lucky" one. Hopefully we will never find out.
@@stephanledford9792 I'm pretty sure lawlessness will also contribute to those death after the nuclear retaliation
@@stephanledford9792 I seem to remember reading about some debate over the severity of the "nuclear winter" theory too a long time ago. Do you have a link or reference to where you heard about that? I suppose it all depends upon how big the fires are that are lit by a nuclear attack. Also, I would expect that most weapons would be set for air bursts rather than surface bursts, and that would limit radiation contamination to virtually nil. Both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were air bursts, and there was very little radioactive contamination. Hardened bovernment and military installations would likely be the only areas hit with surface bursts.
Impressive graphics and coverage by CNA. There must be an enthusiast working there.
@Sheer Indefatigabilty China is a minor player is the nuclear club. By all accounts, it has only 300 nukes now and will only get to 1,000 weapons by the 2030s. So small potatoes compared to the big guys.
@@JK-ix8zi You don't need more than 300 to f up the world.
@Sheer Indefatigabilty those are not significant enough to be discussed. China is a small time player anyway
@Sheer Indefatigabilty yes, you are right CCP wasn’t happy because CNA is planning to discuss China among the smaller nuclear nations.
@Sheer Indefatigabilty CNA isn't a Chinese news channel, its singapore based.
I appreciate the willingness to talk and discuss difficult situations. It's not common that we see that anymore these days and I find it better if we talk about things rather than not.. I really don't want the day where we miss use this beneficial tool, as a horrific weapon.. After seeing videos that taught me just how much we have improved our understanding and capabilities of nuclear energy options and all sorts of different types of methods that are so much safer. I realized that even tho we had a traumatic past, and sadly weapons are thought of if you mention nuclear energy. Regardless, I'm a big supporter of wanting to rebuild our future electrical grid with modern advanced nuclear energy options because the more you learn, the more you realize that back when we were no where ready to be operating things, the reactor designs, the fuel sources, the engineering, the terrible electronics technology.. and the complete lack of understanding of safety measures and radiation... It's honestly really difficult because I know so many people are traumatized from nuclear energy due to our past but really I strongly believe we will heal and do so much better if we can ever give it a chance again. ~{This is why we need to invest in modern advanced nuclear energy options. Small form reactors, LFTRs, Thorium Reactors, liquid reactors, with modern technology, engineering, material science, safety measures understandings and designs, computer technology, robotics, It will really allow any nation to be pretty much be energy independent. Less reliant on fossil fuels. They'll have efficient, stable electrical grids and the rest of the grid could experiment with alternative power sources, etc.
We need to heal from the trauma of our past and see that it came solely from Us not understanding what we were doing, not have advanced enough technology, material science, engineering, safety measures, understanding of how to go about everything, etc. This source of energy will greatly help the world improve towards the future and lowering emissions more than anything else could while having a very stable electrical grid system. Currently we have alternative energy options but the majority of our grid is powered off of fossil fuels and emission producing sources of energy. We will be so much better going forward commiting to modern advanced nuclear energy options.}~
@@Vaxoole be honest did you read it all in one go first time you saw it?
Good job Singapore.
Your graphics and voice over summed it up nicely.
Great graphics. The Tsar Bomba was downgraded by 50% after it was constructed.
The scientists behind it told the govt they weren't sure of what would happen from its effect so they decided to reduce its power to be on the safer side.
@MannyGLA 🏴 🔥 They might as well try to cuz they got Adolf Putin in charge with a Soviet era mindset, or maybe their high ranking officials really hate the West

So the human species goes the way of dinosaurs due to national, ethnic, and political feuds.
We need 2 treaties. Infantry treaty, meaning we don't fight with nukes. Then the Earth Short Range Defense Treaty, turning the purposes of nukes into a reasonable pre-caution for threats against Earth as a planet. The most powerful weapons of our species shouldn't be used to destroy the other regime in another location, but to protect from potential hostile intelligent invaders. To threaten or suggest nuclear war as a regime leader should be a crime against humanity.

If you see a mushroom cloud and you're alive still then chances are you'll burn to death and it won't be as quick and it'll be very painful

@harry macdonald “wear a mask…”
Thanks for this cheery assessment.
The Tsar Bomba cracked windows in Oslo. 800 miles away.
Замените окна.
Facts the two atomic bombs dropped in World War Two in Hiroshima and Nagasaki Japan killed 300k and 250k respectively these are what a Catholic priest survivor wrote he was in the outskirts of Hiroshima; the 3 mile radius not one buildings or edifice is standing in some of the few wall standing you can see the carbon imprint of a humanbeing incinerated plastered on the wall on the 5 mile radius you can see people walking dead with torn pieces of flesh hanging around them going and dying in the river nearby i also have seen a man holding his gorged eyeball in one hand! Its horrific! Its like what you can see in Dantes Inferno! Hell on Earth plus the millions whohave sufferred of debilitating diseases like cancers brought about by the aftermath fallout of radioactive substances in the soil n in the air they breath in. And now with the invention of the Hydrogen bomb with its 20 to 30 times more potent you can just compute and multiply its effect k!
It doesn't work like that. Going up 30x in yield doesn't mean 30x more people die. It could in some cases. A modern bomb over Hiroshima could have killed a million people at the time. Maybe twice that today. Way less than 30x who did die there in 1945 (and the following years). In NYC the 30x might work better but still too high.
Very nice report Tks

No need the professor to tell us what will happen to Singapore if a full scale nuclear war happens between nations. Its common sense we are fucked.
US has 5,248 nukes in total and it only takes 1 to destroy a city. That doesn't count several other weapons that will definitely ruin your day.
The sad part is that when it comes down to it, having one man in control of whether or not this becomes reality or not, is extremely scary. ONE single man's pride and his refusal to accept defeat could spell death for many. At this point he would probably let the world burn because he's too humiliated to acknowledge defeat
Thats not how nuclear commands work in Russia. The final decision is up to the controlling officer of the Nuclear weapon. They can refuse the order lawfully. Just because Putin give the order does not mean a nuke will launch.

So SAD that humanity is going on this path to self immolation.
It is good to hear someone has seriously evaluated this. It seems to match up well with the mental models I have from a basic study of the subject. (I am not a climate scientist; just someone who has studied up some on the subject.)
Something I would like to see tackled is the long term outlook. My mental models have come up with a nuclear winter will be followed by a catastrophic climate summer, possibly even tipping Earth into another Venus. The reasons for this is all of the crap that will enter the atmosphere and environment and persist much longer than ashes. You have a whole lot of CO2 going up from everything burning. You have a whole lot of methane going up from smashed infrastructure. The Nordstream pipelines alone leaking are said to account for 1/3rd of annual greenhouse gas emissions as methane is a very potent greenhouse gas when just released in the the atmosphere. Now imagine basically all natural gas infrastructure in Russia and NATO countries smashed and leaking out with everyone who could shut off the gas flow dead. Not good. Then you will have piles of nuclear power plants catastrophically fail as a secondary round of irradiating the world triggered by the damage and death toll of the first rounds of nuking everyone and everything. So now as the world thaws, really nothing can grow and start soaking up the CO2 emitted because it is Red Forest kind of dead if it hasn't already burned away.
The following summer with everything dead and unable to grow again because of the massive radiation both primary from nuclear bombs and secondary from nuclear power plants around the world melting down and exploding and CO2 and methane releases, heating up and cooking off the water into the atmosphere, which water is a greenhouse gas, as well as other feedback effects with warming, is how the remaining people will likely die and the Earth will become permanently uninhabitable. After all the Sun gets bigger and hotter with time and with Earth tipped over into another Venus, this planet will be done for all time.

Whenever I heard of "Nuclear Winter", I think of "Snowpiercer" of Netflix. It is a story on which the Global temperature reversed to negative because of Nuclear Winter. Horrible to think that it would happen anytime soon.
and china have been building trains just like in snowpiercer
I thought Snowpiercer happens after weather modifications gone wrong... If it was nuclear war, how come they still have infrastructures like rail roads and stations...?
The main reason we have so many nukes is not to bomb every single city but rather just to keep them spread around and assure mutual destruction if attacked, since a smaller stockpile could potentially be targeted and compromised by a first strike prior to retaliation. A lot of work has gone into reducing these stockpiles over the last few decades in the interests of non proliferation - the USA and USSR used to have tens of thousands, each.
I hope that the Western world will not suffer for a long time.
The pilots of the plane that dropped the tsar bomba was hand picked by the leader of the Soviet union himself and their safety could not be guaranteed. Dropped remotely by a ground controller, a parachute was put on the bomb to lower its rate of acceleration and give the pilots of the plane a longer time to escape.
Tsar Bomba II was going to be the sequel to the original TSar Bomba, coming in with a explosive field at a whopping 100 Megatonnes. However due to the 1971 Soviet-US Treaty which prohibited and banned further nuclear bombs construction and test. This bomb never became reality.
The atomic bomb dropped by the US on Japan was the same. They couldn't guarantee it would even work let alone guarantee the crew could get away. 70,000 people in 8 seconds and more would die later from radiation poisoning. So if it happens and the world fires what they have....I'm going outside. Nowhere to run anyway and it will truly be a once in a lifetime experience. Take care.

Alas the content was obviously too much for many in the comment section who felt obliged to dribble their usual platitudes...
Very informative. Although they never mention how significant the threat of a nuclear war will drastically increase if and when Iran develops nuclear capabilities.
I need the exact distance these would be fatal for what would be used against Seattle and PNW military bases. I'm 10miles away (in the middle of) several bases.
Most targets would have 2 to 3 warheads assigned to it to account for the occasional launch or re-entry guidance error
@@paul-ms3fi not that many as it would attract the attention of defense systems. The original comment is right, prolly 2-3 or maybe up to 5 but not more than this. Remember back in WW2, the UW only used two nukes for, one for each cities and they didn't denoted more in that specific target although they got several more bombs in ready. It is pointless to use more if one or two can do the job
I wonder if Russias nuclear capability is as shoddy as their conventional capability. Of course, I don’t want to find out. I hope they don’t do a demonstration. The wind blows from Ukraine to Russia, so if they do a demo it’ll be elsewhere.
@@CoraxCatcher It is because it is their strong suit and with their bad economic situation the only way to compete with NATO in a war because conventional warfare they have no chance. Also Russia has the best ICBMs while the US still uses Minuteman III from the 70s that are trash compared to russian SS-18. Also Russias Air Defense System S400 is Superior to US Patriots which is why Turkey although being a NATO state rather bought the S400 from the Russians instead of using Patriots Like NATO countries are supposed to do...
@@CoraxCatcher Most of the fighting in the disputed territories was via local militias. You would do well to note the "kill ratio" of the Russian-backed militias - 11 to 1 in their favour, with minimal damage to local infrastructure. Now the SMO is over, and the operation has been escalated to an ATO, I suspect the West is going to see what Russia can really do on the battlefield. Montgomery's warning of "never get into a land war with Russia" may be useful to remember in the coming months.
Gotta love the details of these happy news stories ;(

So cheerful, can’t wait for that day..
*CNA Insider needs to do a full scale long dccumetary about WW2 Little Boy and Fat Man Nukes and the entire Nuke Arsenals*
There are many documentaries. Its quite simple. The US started with a 25KT bomb called gadget which was the trinity test in New Mexico. It was the first ever nuclear bomb detonated. A 15KT bomb (Little boy) was exploded over Hiroshima and a 20KT bomb over Nagasaki (fat man). The US now had a few of these low yield bombs which they threatened to use on other nations. So the US were the worlds only nuclear power until 1949. The Soviets had invented a carbon copy of the trinity bomb since there was a spy working on the manhattan project. It was now not just a battle to mass produce atomic bombs so you had more than the other side but instead to make a bigged bomb. This was birth of the hydrogen bomb which works in two or more stages rather than just Purley the splitting on the atom. The largest bomb the US ever detonated was 15MT and the USSR 50-58MT. Both sides realised these bombs were too big so they were taken down a notch. The biggest nukes in arsenals these days are a megatonne give or take. Once a tactical nuclear war begins, tactical nuclear weapons would be exchanged (less than the yield used in 1945). Military infrastructure would then be targeted in an escalation in the war. Around 450KT bombs would be used. The final escalation would be thermonuclear war in which population would be targeted
Journalist , Media narratives should be adjusted.or else they could probably provoked more violence that would lead to catastrophe .
Serious question: If it can drop temperatures by 25c, can blowing up a few not fix global warming?
I work hard every day and some people can end it all with some key flips and buttons pushed.
Wow…this could be a movie…uncle knows his doomsday lessons very well
It already was a movie. A 1983 movie called "The Day After" was about a global nuclear war, and it was the impetus to the arms treaty that reduced nuclear stockpiles significantly. You can probably find it on RUclips
@@DirtFlyer Or, for a far more terrifying and realistic view of what would happen, check out the film "Threads", by Barry Hines. But dont check it out if you're currently suffering from any mental health issues, because it will traumatize you for days. It's the most horrifying film I've ever seen in my life...
For Singaporeans....we in Malaysia are willing to help you guys for the food supply if nuclear disaster really happens....so don't worry
We need chicken.
We need Durian Chicken Tapioca Potatoes Rice and Ondeh Ondeh for dessert so can u help us ?
Almost everything is welcome except corruption and racism
😂 can Malaysia give me some rice?
@BlackBannerz "Sinkapore the only yaya papaya asean country to sanction russia."
At least Singapore have the BALLS to do what is right and stand up to the bully. The other countries [within ASEAN] aint that big or "superpower" as well, how would you like it if a bigger country invades yours?
This Era aint one for the "survival of the fittest/strongest"
Thanks for letting me know about what could possibly turn me into space dust
Most people are too distracted, war mongers are leading to nuclear armageddon while everyone is not demanding peace
I know we’re all hoping that humanity will never reach this endpoint but we can’t just sit and ponder u have to learn all the skills u would need when things hit the fan, ex solar panels, cultivating crops, simple repairs (especially electrical wirings) maybe start buying food with long shelf lives, learn first aide, self defence, etc everything is on the internet
and other simple things like to live at least 100km away from the nearest town of over a 100k people. and near the equator. good luck.
