"We really, really want to make sure that nuclear war never breaks out. But we also know — from all of the examples of the Cold War, all these close calls — that it very well could, as long as there are nuclear weapons in the world. So if it does, we want to have some ways of preventing that from turning into a civilisation-threatening, cataclysmic kind of war. And those kinds of interventions — war limitation, intrawar escalation management, civil defence — those are kind of the seatbelts and airbags of the nuclear world. So to borrow a phrase from one of my colleagues, right-of-boom is a class of interventions for when “shit hits the fan.” —Christian RuhlIn this episode of 80k After Hours, Luisa Rodriguez and Christian Ruhl discuss underrated best bets to avert civilisational collapse from global catastrophic risks — things like great power war, frontier military technologies, and nuclear winter.Links to learn more, summary, and full transcript.They cover:Who this episode is for:Who this episode isn’t for:Chapters:Producer: Keiran HarrisAudio Engineering Lead: Ben CordellTechnical editing: Ben Cordell and Milo McGuireContent editing: Katy Moore, Luisa Rodriguez, and Keiran HarrisTranscriptions: Katy Moore“Gershwin – Rhapsody in Blue, original 1924 version” by Jason Weinberger is licensed under creative commons
