NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center and reporting summarize the 2025–26 winter outlook as favoring above‑normal temperatures across much of the U.S. East, Southeast, Gulf Coast, Texas, Southwest and Cali...
Boston itself was not historically an island in the sense of being separated from the mainland by permanent open water, but parts of what is now the city and nearby land were once distinct islands or ...
Mainstream scientific and government sources, and multiple media analyses, report no verified evidence that the U.S. government or military is running a program that sprays “toxic chemtrails” over the...
States approach with a patchwork of regimes: some actively run or permit programs with formal permitting, reporting and oversight (e.g., , , ), while others have moved to restrict or ban and broader (...
is actively practiced in at least nine states — , , , , , , , and — and is largely implemented and funded at local or state levels rather than by a unified federal program . Oversight is a patchwork o...
The claim that “chemtrails” are a secret program of deliberate chemical spraying is treated as a conspiracy theory by multiple fact-checkers and science communicators; reputable agencies like NOAA and...
The body of reputable scientific and government reporting finds no evidence that “chemtrails” — persistent aircraft vapor trails deliberately laced with toxic chemicals and sprayed over populations — ...
Digital and printed maps still show the label "Gulf of Mexico" widely, but several major online map platforms have adopted or display an alternative label—"Gulf of America"—depending on user location ...
Exceeding 0.05% atmospheric CO2 (500 ppm) would push the planet into a greenhouse state not seen in millions of years and, according to paleo and model-based research, would commit Earth to multi-mete...
State-run weather modification in the United States today is largely a patchwork of cloud‑seeding programs administered by state agencies, local water districts and multi‑county authorities—examples i...
Many warnings in past decades that “Florida would be underwater” condensed worst‑case projections and dramatic metaphors about sea‑level rise; actual measured sea level along Florida has risen about 7...
The US federal government has not issued a single, comprehensive proposal to regulate geoengineering; instead, multiple federal agencies are reviewing authorities, funding research, and laying groundw...
Yes — federal agencies and Congress have funded and directed research on geoengineering in recent years. Congress in 2022 directed OSTP with NOAA, NSF and DOE to develop a five‑year plan on “solar and...
The claim that : satellite records and multiple scientific assessments show no net increase in solar output since the late 1970s while global temperatures have risen sharply, and the observed vertical...
Cloud seeding is an established, decades‑old technique that can nudge precipitation under certain conditions but is not a proven tool for creating large‑scale extreme weather on demand; its effectiven...
GeoEngineering Watch, led by Dane Wigington, asserts that extensive, covert climate‑engineering programs — often called “chemtrails” — are being deployed globally and are responsible for extreme weath...
Yes. Federal and state agencies, as well as scientific bodies, have openly acknowledged and documented —most commonly cloud seeding for precipitation enhancement—and federal law requires reporting of ...
Geoscience literature and agency reporting show that geomagnetic reversals are slow, messy events taking from about a few hundred years in short excursions up to several thousand — most commonly quote...

Federal law today creates a reporting-and-tracking regime for weather modification but stops short of a comprehensive federal licensing or permitting system: must be notified of planned activities and...
