    The impacts of hydrogen bombs on the United States during the 20th century were largely negative. The development of hydrogen bombs by the United States and Soviet Union caused widespread fear of nuclear war in 1950s American society. This led the US government to issue instructions for citizens to build bomb shelters. Decades later, island populations near US nuclear tests still cannot resettle for fear of sickness from irradiated soil and crops. The hydrogen bomb negatively impacted the US through public panic, large military spending, and destruction of countries that were bombed.

    Were the impacts hydrogen bombs had on the U.

    during the 20th century positive or negative?

    “With both the United States and Soviet

    Union stockpiling nuclear weapons,

    fears of nuclear warfare pervaded

    American society and culture in the

    1950s.

    "The US government provided

    instructions for building and equipping

    bomb shelters in basements or

    "60 years after U.S. tests on Bikini

    backyards"
    Atoll, populations who lived on the

    islands for generations are still

    unable to resettle for fear of

    sickness and irradiated soil giving

    way to toxic crops."

    The H-Bomb greatly impacted the United States of

    America in a negative way by causing severe panic,

    the use of funds to pay for the military and

    development of WMD and the destruction of other

    countries that did not join nor deserve to be

    bombed.
