The Cold and the Dark: The World after Nuclear War is a 1984 book, edited by Paul R. Ehrlich and co-authored by Carl Sagan, Donald Kennedy, and Walter Orr Roberts, that presents findings from the 1983 Conference on the Long-Term Worldwide Biological Consequences of Nuclear War. The book's central argument is the concept of "nuclear winter," where massive atmospheric soot would block sunlight, causing drastic and long-lasting global cooling, leading to profound ecological devastation. It includes key papers on atmospheric and biological consequences, the Moscow Link dialogue between Soviet and American scientists, and the scientific evidence supporting these conclusions.
