World War III: The Devastating Consequences and Bleak Future #Shorts

Imagine waking up one morning to a world devastated by nuclear winter. Outside, there's smoke so thick that you can't see the sun. Sludge runs from your taps instead of water, and you survive on rations of canned goods from a better time. Factions of people start fighting each other for resources. Food and clothing become luxuries. Life has become a bleak and joyless battle for survival, all because of World War II.

The consequences of a third world war would drastically change everything we know and love. A modern-day world war could very well end life as we know it. You might be able to survive on scraps and live amongst the rubble of nuclear fallout, but countless animals, plants, and insects would be erased from the face of the earth.

Now, while this might sound like the backdrop for a new sci-fi movie, World War II's threat is much less fictional than we wish to believe. Life in the west right now, for the most part, is relatively simple and conflict-free. To have that comfort ripped out from under you isn't something most people consider.
