I created a Weighted Factor Model of the best countries to live in in case of nuclear war.
I considered the following factors:
- Cost of Living (20%)
- Global Peace Index (20%)
- Energy Independence (15%)
- Latitude (all nuclear countries are in the North) (10%)
- Average rainfall (10%)
- Average temperature (nuclear winter reduces global temperature) (10%)
- Human Development Index (10%)
- Food Security (5%)
My plan is: if the situation worsens (measured with this and this Metaculus questions), go to the Canary Islands first (I'm European). Then, if it gets even worse, go to one of:
- Argentina
- Peru
- Uruguay
- Malaysia
- Australia
- New Zealand
I would love any feedback you might have :)
Thank you so much for the amazing reply! I increased the weight of energy security.
I don't like the Global Food Security Index, because it's about the quality of food, not whether the country is producing/exporting food. Which other indicator would you use, and where do I get the data?
