World War 3 prediction, can you imagine, what would be the future? You can’t ! But you can Imagine if there were no World Wars then that would be the population of the world today.
On the other hand, in Geography, we study seasons. Each geographical location has their specific seasons on the basis of long term Climatic Cycle. Nowadays, we can find that the Weather element has started dominating over the Climatic element. Now, we can find that within the cycle of 15 to 30 days, the weather is changing. Sometimes it is hot and the next day it becomes rainy, night becomes cold etc. The length of Viral fever, Cough and Cold is also increased, as well as intensity is also denser.
Environmental Degradation Concepts
We have various alarming situations and we also gave these things importance in International Politics with the help of various Conventions. Let us understand a few alarming situations and related conventions. Which will further help us to understand the importance of World War 3.

Global warming
Earth comes under the Goldilocks Zone of Universe (Appropriate condition for the habitat of Living Organism). If temperature rises the condition becomes uninhabitable. According to the ”IPCC special report on Global Warming of 1.5°C” says that, if it crosses average Earth’s temperature 1.5°C, the globe rises the risk of heat waves and heavy rainfall.
Climate Change
Climate Change is a trickle down effect of Global Warming. Our various Productions and Livelihood patterns depend on Climate. Example Agriculture where, we have Kharif seasons with specific time cycle, rainfall pattern, solar energy etc. if Climate Changes we are unable to find out specific cropping pattern. Hence production will decrease or It may come to Zero.
Ozone Depletion
Ozone in the Stratosphere of Earth plays an Important role in making Earth a Goldilocks Zone by capturing Ultraviolet Rays. If a human or any living being comes in contact with it then it may lead to Mutation, Cancer or lethal Disease. The major reason of Depletion of Ozone is Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) mainly found in Refrigerator, Fire Extinguisher etc.
Acid Rain
Precipitation is a natural process, if the pH of rain is less than 5.6 then it is considered as Acid Rain. When Oxides of Nitrogen and Sulphur react with water droplets acid forms. It may lead to corrosion, impact on aquatic life, degradation of infrastructure and particularly to human beings it may cause Skin Disease.
Pollution
Human Beings, to make his/her life better, invented many things. On the other hand the by-product of invention created pollution in nature. Example carbon monoxide by-product of fuel. Earlier it was water, air, soil and sound pollution. But now we have Pollution in the Form of Living Modified organisms, Hazardous waste, nuclear waste etc which are limited close to non-disposable.
Anthropogenic Cause
Earth’s climate changed many times but it took thousands of years. But after the Industrial Revolution within 300 years it started showing an alarming situation for climate change. In the race of GDP and Per Capita Income we are scratching earth so harshly and making it difficult to come back.
On the other hand rising Global Human Population is also a matter of concern. During the Industrial revolution the population was about 1 billion and now it has crossed 8 billion. At present, the doubling rate is very fast, which is just 45 years. The resources are limited, continuous exploitation has overburdened Mother Earth.
Degradation of Various Global Index
As we know resources are limited and Population is rising. There are many who have scarcity of resources. Not Quantitative but Qualitatively we are picking up reasons behind Degradation elements of few Indices.
Global Hunger Index (GHI)
With the objective of tracking Global Hunger World wide it Tracks global, national as well as regional Hunger. The elements involving degradation of this index are Conflicts, climate change, and instability of the economy.
For Example In India the Crisis of Manipur, Palestine conflict of Middle East etc.
Environmental Vulnerability Index (EVI)
It measures Vulnerability to the environment through Natural as well as Anthropogenic causes. The degrading factors are Biodiversity loss, Climate Change, Deforestation etc. Recently, we have found an increase in the number of floods and droughts. These are the alarming issues for Human society.
Fragile States Index (FSI)
It measures the challenges faced by a particular Government in its governance and also measures the potential economic and political crisis situation. Whenever there is war or conflict like situation the fragility of involving state will be high. Increasing internal conflicts are also the reason behind high Fragility.
There are few indices also like Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI), Social Vulnerability Index (SVI), Global Peace Index (GPI) etc. which are also showing Degrading trends and these Indices also have overlapping Parameters like Climate change, Terrorism, Population displacement, militarization etc. That’s why, we are not going into further details.
World War 3 Prediction: Relation With other World Wars
Any war or movement is based on two conditions: the first one is “Structural Conduciveness” and the second one is “Perception of Opportunity”. In the same way, during World War 1 and 2 the political structure of European countries was not stable; almost each country had conflict with their neighbour. Whenever any country feels like an opportunity, it jumps into the war.
At present Two wars are running, war between Russia and Ukraine and war for Palestinian Cause. Recently Iraq found Opportunity and attacked Israel. If things are going like this, we are definitely going closer to World War 3.
Atomic Bomb and World War 3
Atomic Bomb, a cause of the Cold War in Global Polity. If any one had taken the initiative to launch then it would be the end of two conflicting Big Brothers of the world.
We have Two situations from the Second World War; the first one is the situation of Dunkirk in France and the other one is Situation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The second one is easier if you have technology but it is not ethical. Atomic Bomb creates least loss for technology holder.
Even within 20 years Hiroshima completely recovered from the effects of the Atomic Bomb. So, using Atomic Bomb in World War 3 can’t be a surprising element.
Survival of the Fittest
It is the Philosophy given by Charles Darwin. It has the potential to justify all unethical, illogical and even harsh violent acts. Resources are limited, so power holders can take decisions towards World War 3. The most interesting question will be; Who will be targeted as a prey of the predator?”
Conclusion
I am not the one who supports the war, I am also not the one who perceives any kind of violence as ethical. You can see the above article as Philosophy or a world war 3 prediction. You can also relate the events too.
I have some solution if you believe these are not hypothetical. These are :-
- Food for all, No hunger.
- Employment for all, with living wages.
- Education for all, with no conflict.
Condition applied:- No further environment degradation. Otherwise we have to go for the 4th and last solution ;” Find a new or create a Goldilocks zone, develop a technology to transport/teleport people to that zone and make a colony there. Rights of Alien Species will be discussed later.
