Image via Bulletin of Atomic Scientists    <\/p>\n<p>According to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists which oversees the Doomsday Clock, the world is now closer than ever to nuclear catastrophe with President Joe Biden sitting in the White House.<\/p>\n<p>The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists changed Tuesday&#8217;s clock to 90 seconds past midnight. This was the supposed time that all human life on Earth will die. The group cited &#8220;mounting dangers of the war in Ukraine&#8221; This is the main reason for the change.<\/p>\n<p>Just two years ago, the group welcomed Biden\u2019s election as putting &#8220;the world on a much better footing to address global problems.&#8221; Biden\u2019s support of &#8220;international cooperation&#8221; According to a member, this could help prevent the nuclear apocalypse. <a href=\"http:\/\/paocweb.mit.edu\/about\/paoc-spotlights\/eaps-professor-susan-solomon-helped-set-the-doomsday-clock\">a statement<\/a> After his inauguration. The group didn&#8217;t change the clock in any way.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Finding a path to serious peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine could go a long way toward reducing the risk of escalation,&#8221;<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>In a Tuesday press statement, the group stated. &#8220;In this time of unprecedented global danger, concerted action is required, and every second counts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Doomsday Clock stopped moving forward in January 2020. It was sitting at 100 seconds after midnight. Rachel Bronson (Bulletin of Atomic Scientists), is the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. She is not a scientist, but an adjunct professor at a business school. &#8220;continued corruption of the information ecosphere on which democracy and public decision making depend&#8221; As the reason for the move.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The war\u2019s effects are not limited to an increase in nuclear danger; they also undermine global efforts to combat climate change,&#8221; Tuesday&#8217;s statement was made by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. &#8220;Countries dependent on Russian oil and gas have sought to diversify their supplies and suppliers, leading to expanded investment in natural gas exactly when such investment should have been shrinking.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During 1962&#8217;s Cuban Missile Crisis the Doomsday Clock measured seven minutes to midnight. And, in 2010, the Doomsday Clock\u2019s second hand was moved backward one minute<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>because of former president Barack Obama\u2019s work on climate change.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/doomsday-clock-will-remain-unchanged-under-biden-as-russia-puts-nuclear-arsenal-on-high-alert\/\">Washington Free Beacon<\/a> In March 2022, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists was asked to explain why the clock had not changed despite the onset of a war in Europe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world is closer than ever to nuclear annihilation with President Joe Biden in the White House, according to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the group which oversees the Doomsday Clock.<br \/>\nThe post Biden Brings World Closer Than Ever to Nuclear Annihilation, Scientists Say appeared first on Washington Free Beacon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":197,"featured_media":1822397,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[544],"tags":[16286,3620,6689,11099,4639,11487],"class_list":["post-1822394","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-free-beacon","tag-annihilation","tag-biden","tag-brings","tag-closer","tag-nuclear","tag-scientists"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1822394","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/197"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1822394"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1822394\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1822397"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1822394"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1822394"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1822394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
