The use of nuclear weapons would result in catastrophic loss of life from "summary" of At the Abyss by Thomas C. Reed

The destructive power of nuclear weapons is unrivaled in the history of warfare. With just one detonation, a single nuclear bomb can cause unimaginable devastation, wiping out entire cities and causing widespread death and destruction. The aftermath of such an event would be catastrophic, with the loss of life reaching unprecedented levels. The use of nuclear weapons would not only result in immediate deaths from the blast and heat, but also from the radiation sickness that would follow. The long-term effects of exposure to radiation would lead to a dramatic increase in cancer rates and other serious health problems for survivors. The impact on the environment would be equally devastating, with widespread contamination of land, water, and air. Furthermore, the use of nuclear weapons would have far-reaching geopolitical consequences. It would likely lead to an escalation of conflict, as other nations respond in kind with their own nuclear arsenals. The potential for a full-scale nuclear war, with multiple countries involved, is a very real and terrifying possibility. The international community has long recognized the dangers posed by nuclear weapons, which is why there have been extensive efforts to prevent their proliferation and promote disarmament. The goal is to prevent the use of these weapons at all costs, given the catastrophic loss of life and destruction they would cause.
  1. The use of nuclear weapons is not just a military tactic – it is a threat to humanity as a whole. The catastrophic loss of life that would result from their use is something that must be avoided at all costs. The consequences of a nuclear war would be so devastating that they are almost beyond comprehension. The only way to truly prevent such a nightmare scenario is to work towards a world free of nuclear weapons.
