Conflict hot spots around the

escalation, climate change is already
causing death and destruction,
and disruptive technologies
like AI and biological research
advance faster than their safeguards, Rachel Bronson, The Bulletin of Atomic

and Russia possess nearly 90%
of the world's nuclear weapons.
In March, Putin announced that Russia would
deploy tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus.

conventional war and drawing in more
nuclear powers or near-nuclear powers, Rachel Bronson, The Bulletin of Atomic
