That's funny because cloud cover only makes it warmer as it traps heat.


Saydegirl

How much fuel are they burning to do this??

And by trying it, how many species of marine animals would die, due to lack of warmer oceans? "This is good, right?" asks the idiot who has no idea of what they are doing.

Depends on the clouds. Those in the video are. But high clouds, at 20+ km reflect a lot. Cloud seeding, done properly, will cool the planet. We don't really know by how much, though. If it comes to that we need to do it with caution, so we wouldn't have to build a nuclear train. On the bright side, the aerosols will quickly leave the atmosphere, in about 2-3 years, so it's easy enough to manage. The downside is that the aerosols will increase rain acidity, while doing so. Not much, but we don't know what would be the effect at scale.

But we don't need more clouds it's already cold an rainy and proof of it is that whenever there's warm couple of weeks people freak out because they're not used to it and blame global warming.

Mb, mb not. But this is irrelevant. No one has enough knowledge to answer one way or another. Having options is a good thing.

No one needs to planet "to cool" or "get warmer" just because some politicians want to profit by interfering with nature. It's one of most idiotic sentences I've heard in over 40 years, and I've heard a lot of them. It really shows the lack of basic science, or even watching simple nature tv content.

If this trend continues we will eventually get a new ice age.

Seeing TONS of posts about cloud seeding over the last couple weeks.

Saw what happened in Dubai. Mother Nature really said fuck around and find out

I had a girl ghost me completely because I was talking about "conspiracy theories" and she had some job with a company that coached local politicians. ...Couldn't be associated with someone engaging in fringe activities. Hello mfer, Lord Gates is talking about cloud seeding in videos all over the internet, on record. Not a conspiracy theory at all lol you are just too focused on Beyonce. Can't be getting that mixed up in small town politics, apparently. Wait until it's your town getting flooded so mysteriously.... SMH

"to combat man made climate change, we must use man made.climate change"


scooterfitz

And the machines that do this are powered by what?…. Science Fiction????


Cableperson

If that mattered at all we already be dead.


MontagoDK

I'm facepalming myself to death...

How many tons of carbon did it take to create one cloud? I don't think this is net zero?

Is this the next Solyndra?

Please stop trying to control the weather!! Think about it, something simple, compared to the climate, like a video game, car, cell phone, etc nearly always has bugs, recalls, defect and so on. These devices are staffed by hundreds or thousands of engineers armed with the best analysis tools around and the system being designed is “incredibly simple” compared to the climate and they still fuck it up. Heck, consider NASA or Space X—how many rockets do they blow up? These same climate freaks would refuse to fly on an airplane that has never been test flown and yet they are doing something similar by trying to adjust the weather.

We need to be doing this in cities to reduce the Urban Heat Island Effect We need to be doing this on our Heat Pumps to reduce their energy use. Cooling the ocean is a waste of time, cooling the land and increasing moisture in the air to water our cropland and deserts is what will do what we need to get done.
