Two new reports detail how the world’s nine nuclear-armed countries are spending aggressively to modernize and deploy weapons that pose an existential threat to civilization.
There’s already enough nukes on hair triggers to destroy modern civilization several times over.
We don’t need more nukes, so it’s extremely concerning that countries are spending so much money on building more.
It’s important to remember that every single day, the world is about 30 minutes away from nuclear annihilation. And that in about an hour, every major city on the planet could be an irradiated wasteland.
