A nuclear war could take the lives of 5 billion people, create fireballs up to 100 million degrees Celsius, leading to a nuclear winter covering everywhere in the world, according to a new study published in the journal Nature.
This study confirms that only Australia and New Zealand can survive after a nuclear war.
In the podcast The Diary of a CEO, doomsday expert Annie Jacobson explained: "Cents of millions of people will die in fireballs, that's certain.
Annie Jacobson is the author of the book "Nuclear War: A Scenario", which used scientific articles and opinions of defense experts to predict what would happen if 12,000 nuclear weapons worldwide were detonated.
However, she added, countries that survive initial explosions will enter a "nuclear winter". "Things like Iowa (USA) and Ukraine will only be snowy for 10 years, paralyzing agriculture. When agriculture collapses, people will die," she revealed.
This doomsday expert believes that most of Australia and New Zealand will get through the nuclear winter and can still cultivate.
Although they can survive, people in Australia and New Zealand have to live in darkness. She predicts people will "fight for food" and "living underground".
Ms. Annie's prediction was made in the context of escalating conflict in the Middle East and a series of maps predicting that Iran's missiles could erase some countries. News reports indicate that these warheads have a range of up to about 2,000km, enough to reach famous tourist destinations such as Dubai, Cyprus, Turkey and Egypt.
