California has been cloud seeding since the 1950s. It's no big secret. A lot of people are not happy about it. I wouldn't be if I lived in California. If you mess with the weather and interfere with natural precipitation patterns, then it can have unintended consequences down the line. Usually, it involves aircraft fitted with special spray nozzles injecting silver iodide condensation nuclei into winter clouds in order to enhance precipitation and increase snowpack. But it's important to note that these planes are flying at low altitude in the troposphere, spraying low level clouds. The chemtrail theorists allege that chemicals are being injected into the lower stratosphere at much greater heights, where there are no rain-bearing clouds, but then they say these chemicals (aluminium, barium etc.) are causing artificial snow falls and can be detected in the snow which falls. How can this happen if they are being injected into the lower stratosphere? It doesn't make sense. How can these 'chemtrails' assist in the precision steering of high level jet streams towards specific locations, or is this all down to the mysterious HAARP rays? Others maintain that high level spraying of these poisonous salts is a planned attempt to cool the planet by reflecting and absorbing solar radiation - but the effect of persistent stratospheric aircraft trails suggests net warming, not cooling, as they trap radiated heat during the night-time, more than compensating for 'dimming' during the daytime. Whatever the case, the science definitely isn't settled and the entire subject is still very much open to debate, so anyone claiming that there is no debate is a fraud and a charlatan.

Well said..."Anyone advancing such outlandish claims based upon such scant evidence, then claiming that they are not debatable is a zealot, not a scientist."

How many 'new cult religions" do we have now?
