nuclear winter isnt something imaginary, it's more or less what happens when you kick any particulate into the air. it can be modeled with relative accuracy. The iceland volcano eruption kicked up about 0.5 teragrams of black carbon, climate models were spot on.
what would happen when a small nuclear volley of 100 nukes (say between india/pakistan) kicks up 5-10 Tg of black carbon? besides the immediate loss of all rice fields in india and SE asia, climate models tell us.... shorter growing seasons. bread baskets of the world lose months of growing time, snow on the ground in russian urals/americas great plains except June through August, this continues for 10 years.
