[quote=The-Shoveler]With all this Nuke talk lately (unlikely to happen I know).
But I was thinking what if.
I am thinking Uruguay, probably not too many ICBM’s pointed at Uruguay.

[quote=svelte]I think the further south you go in South America the better you’ll be.
When I discovered that, it kicked off a mini-fascination with South American and I spent lots of time researching the Beagle Channel and the towns that line it like Ushuaia.[/quote]
looking at the physics if there was a nuclear exchange in Ukraine, Russia, or in any of the NATO member countries,… the very Southern tip of South America would receive the least amount of nuclear fall out because it is geographically the furthest away from any of the potential conflict zones
also consider if there were a nuclear exchange, then one will also have to consider that global supply chains will pretty much cease to exist,… so the question becomes what happens to the food supply if one moves way down south,… point being the tip of South America is pretty rocky and cool so not much stuff can grow in the region, sure there is fishing for a food source (but in that part of the world the seas get pretty rough because of open oceans)
a related food source “need” problem anywhere there is a human settlement, there is also going to be a “need” for a clean source of water
thought I’d mention the issue of water because not too long ago I designed a solar distiller because I offered to build/donate one to a local school so the kids can actually learn something useful and related to the topic of man made climate change
