As far as option three goes, when Chernobyl blew up and tons of radioactive dust went up the sky, my country was downwind. So, been there, done that, can count all the Oscars of "Titanic" on one hand.
And I suspect the world will be returning to various precious metal standards now that the dollar is becoming defunct as a global reserve currency, so that's option one off the table as well.
Which leaves option two... and to be blunt, compared to the otherwise traditional regional causes like liver failure and heart disease (or getting stabbed over a fiver in a back alley), a nuke doesn't seem all that bad. Certainly won't ruin the local urban landscape any more than the 90s did.
