A cartoon with the title "mutually assured destruction". The first image is of two separate fingers on nuclear red buttons, one with the US flag behind it, the other with the USSR flag behind it, and both titled "the". The second image is of a person from an oil company holding a bag of cash, who is saying "let's keep burning fossil fuels". Another person is standing next to them, smiling - while a graph shows the global temperature exponentially going up.
