Geoengineering: A Dangerous Tool or Climate Control of the Future?

Despite use by at least 52 countries around the world, both the National Academy of Sciences and the American Meteorological Society doubt cloud-seeding technology’s effectiveness.

Earlier this month, Jordan, the second most water-poor country in the world, ordered more rainfall [link to www.scidev.net] through cloud-seeding to help alleviate water shortages. Jordan’s cloud-seeding experiment followed after Russia, which last year ordered the rain to fall earlier [link to www.theweek.co.uk] in order to guarantee a dry day for parades and celebrations. Around the same time as Russia was manipulating its weather, California’s Tahoe Basin, desperate for extra snow for the coming ski season, ordered, [link to www.outsideonline.com (secure)] well, more snow.

So, China and India are the worlds most egregious polluters, yet the USA EPA invokes all these standards for America just to make money?

Cloud-seeding geoengineering, in use for more than 75 years to produce rain and snow, is a technological approach to manipulate the weather and climate. In the process of cloud-seeding or weather modification, silver iodide, potassium iodide, or solid carbon dioxide is shot into clouds by rockets, sprayed into clouds by drones or aircraft, or burned in generators atop mountains. Once inside the cloud, the chemicals freeze to create ice crystals, which turn to rain or snow that falls to the ground.

In the United States, cloud-seeding has been used for drought relief, snowfall, and rainfall across the western portion of the country. In 2015, cloud-seeding reportedly produced a 34 percent increase in the length of rainfall in Texas. These artificial rain storms allegedly covered 42 percent more land area, and the rain output was 137 percent more and produced 120,885 acre-feet of rain at a cost of less than $11 per acre-foot.




So they, stretch the storms out to deliver more water to a greater area, so water is not wasted in a small area where it does not go into aquifers.... Smart thinking.


Also, it should raise questions into the promised incresed in storm severity.
Butterfly Effect.

Too truthful.

And too advanced as well, I suspect. And so instinctively wrong, people can't conceive of it being possible.
