How do chemtrails affect people

At Lincoln Hills, that may be the case. Tammi has legitimate reason to fear her crops are exposed to harmful chemicals. I never saw clouds like that as a kid. The news Tammi has read since January has left her disillusioned. When asked for evidence supporting their convictions, chemtrails believers kept returning to what they themselves had seen.

Primary experiences, they suggest, are a more trustworthy gauge of truth than scientific consensus or the mainstream news. Instead of the news, Rob says he gets his information from friends he respects. Maybe this seemed all in good fun back when conspiracy theories appeared to hold no sway in national politics. When I explain the focus of this article to Tammi, she expects condescension. Of course, condescension from mainstream institutions only strengthens the impulse to find a sense of power in theories that reject mainstream thinking.

While driving me to a scenic overlook where she photographed the sky every few days for a year, Lisa plays a folk song she wrote about geoengineering. At the overlook, mist hangs in the Ponderosa pines. Across the valley is the faint ridge of the Sutter Buttes. It strikes me that our relationship to facts has become so tenuous that we can literally no longer agree on whether the sky is blue.

Watch your back. Chemtrail theories are not only a U. To address this concern, a group of 77 scientists published a report in the journal of Environmental Research Letters after digging through the supposed evidence of the intent to poison us through chemtrails.

These scientists are experts in atmospheric science, including the contributions of aircraft to the atmosphere as well as atmospheric processes like how quickly or uniformly chemicals fall through the air to the ground. Instead, they found that "the data cited as evidence [for such a program] could be explained through other factors, including well-understood physics and chemistry associated with aircraft.

As for that one scientist? One scientist noted that in one remote location, the levels of barium in the atmosphere were unusually high relative to the levels of barium in the soil. No claims were made that the reason for those elevated levels had to be a large scale chemical operation, but since that scientist was not convinced of a clear reason for the barium to be higher in the atmosphere there, they left the possibility open.

This page gives our views on the topic. Chemtrails refers to the theory that governments or other parties are engaged in a secret program to add toxic chemicals to the atmosphere from aircraft in a way that forms visible plumes in the sky, somewhat similar to contrails.

Various different motivations for this alleged spraying are speculated, including sterilization, reduction of life expectancy, mind control or weather control. We have not seen any credible evidence that chemtrails exist. If we did see any evidence that governments were endangering their own citizens in the manner alleged in the chemtrails conspiracy, we would be eager to expose and stop any such activities.

We work on theoretical proposals for combating global warming called solar geoengineering or albedo modification. These are technologies that might enable people to add materials to the Earth's atmosphere to reflect a bit more sunlight back to space, partially masking or reducing the climate change due to accumulated greenhouse gases.

Study of solar geoengineering is in the very early stages and the topic is rightly a very controversial area of climate policy because if it ever were tested at large scales or implemented it could involve physical risks and would raise a range of serious socio-political and ethical issues. However, there is nothing secret about the study of albedo modification, with hundreds of publications about the topic in academic journals and hundreds of articles in mainstream media.

You can find some of our work here. So, with such scientific proof to the contrary, why do these theories persist? If the government refutes them and scientists disprove them, then why are some people so adamant we're being lied to? No amount of evidence will dissuade a die-hard conspiracy theorist, because any evidence to the contrary is inevitably dismissed as part of a massive cover up. Hey, maybe my dad is part of it as well.

While the EPA report concludes, 'contrails pose no direct threat to public health,' it does add: 'Contrail cloudiness might contribute to climate change. Climate change may impact on public health and environmental protection.

What you've seen is an image of a plane filled with water tanks. These flight test ballast barrels are there to simulate passenger weight, and are interconnected so the water can be pumped to different parts of the cabin allowing engineers to assess the planes' performance under a variety of load conditions and different centres of gravity.
