The scientific research and proposals for manipulating the weather and sunlight through various means, including injecting reflective particles into the upper atmosphere.
Cloud seeding is a decades‑old, narrowly defined weather‑modification technique that disperses particles into existing clouds to encourage ice formation and increase precipitation under the right cond...
Secret, large‑scale “chemtrails” as a covert atmospheric spraying program lack credible scientific evidence and are rejected by mainstream atmospheric scientists, while geoengineering exists as a legi...
The claim that "Trump controls weather" is false in the sense of intentional manipulation of large-scale storms: scientific experts, fact-checkers and multiple media outlets have debunked broad weathe...
Peer‑reviewed science on deliberate atmospheric geoengineering exists in distinct streams — studies of cloud seeding and of proposed solar‑radiation management or carbon removal techniques — and those...
Longstanding, documented government atmospheric programs and proposals — including mid-20th century open-air biological tests, decades of cloud‑seeding and research, and provocative military strategy ...
The claim that everyday aircraft contrails are actually deliberate “” used to modify weather or spray populations is widely rejected by scientists and government agencies, which identify the phenomeno...
Cloud seeding and related weather-modification techniques can nudge precipitation in existing clouds and suppress hail on localized scales, but the peer-reviewed consensus and expert reporting say the...
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...
Stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) with sulfate is modeled to cool global mean surface temperature effectively but carries documented environmental side‑effects—notably stratospheric heating, ozone...
Social media has turned the chemtrails conspiracy from a fringe late‑night-radio curiosity into a persistent, globally visible online subculture by enabling mass sharing of photos, videos and anecdote...
Deliberate large-scale geoengineering proposals fall into two broad camps—solar radiation management (SRM) methods that try to reflect sunlight and rapidly cool the planet, and carbon dioxide removal ...
Local governments and state legislatures across the United States have responded to renewed public fears about “chemtrails” primarily by drafting and advancing statutes that ban intentional atmospheri...
The claim that specific “chemicals” are being secretly sprayed from high‑altitude aircraft has no substantiated evidence in the scientific literature or government reviews; mainstream agencies conclud...
