How close is the world to nuclear armor gedon well according to scientists and the Doomsday Clock we’re still 90 seconds to midnight if you don’t have a clue what I’m talking about the Doomsday Clock is set every year by a group of scientists and it’s meant to symbolically represent how close we are

To well the end of the world because of nuclear war it was actually made in 1947 by Oppenheimer yep that guy and the scientists who made the atomic bomb as a way to put pressure on world leaders to make sure that nuclear weapons were never used again at that time it was 7

Minutes to Midnight it dropped back to 17 minutes in 1991 at the end of the Cold War but it’s been creeping back up ever since in 2023 it was set to 90 seconds to midnight with the Ukraine war nuclear arms race and climate change as just some of the reasons but this year

It’s the same with the addition of AI thrown into the mix the president of the bulletin of atomic scientists that’s a people who set the clock said this is a very dangerous time leaders are not acting responsibly

  14. “The doomsday clock represents how close we are to the end of the world because of ‘NUCLEAR WAR’”
    Recently it has been creeping back down because of “CLIMATE CHANGE and ADVANCEMENTS in ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE” 🤷‍♂️🤔
    Not sure how climate change or A.I. have anything to do with nuclear Armageddon..

  17. Yeah I don’t listen to women when it comes to war so what she just said means absolutely nothing to me. Funny how last year the government sent out a warning text to everyone’s phones just testing to see if it works for when an actual emergency happens. Then a few days ago, NATO is doing the biggest ever drills since the Cold War and they come out and publicly said they are preparing for war with Russia. Sweden’s government have told them to prepare for war. We are living in very dangerous times.

  18. And the ancient Egyptians built the great Pyramid with copper chisels and then completely forgot how they did it 🤪 I don’t trust academics who don’t look at hard evidence and admit they are wrong!! 😮😮😮🇬🇧🌈♥️👍
