Weather modification tech: How cloud seeding increases rainfall

    I didn’t even know such technology was a thing. I guess it’s more like drought prevention tech, so if you’re already in a drought or in region that hardly gets any rainfall at all through out the year this might not be so helpful. It’s pretty amazing for what it is! Let’s see where it goes.

      Yeah, during the recent worst-ever drought there, they were just about useless. They’ve been using these seeders for 30 years.

      nothing is secret, but no one cares. but first of all it’s a conspiracy theory, that’s for sure

    These cloud seeding machines are actually emitting 5G. And the cloud seeded 5G is secretly vaccinating people. And the vaccine make people forget the Earth is flat. And thinking the Earth is round makes climate change more believable. And if people believe in climate change they will think AOC’s words make sense. And if AOC makes sense people will think they’re crazy. And if everyone thinks they’re crazy, Joe Biden seems normal. And if Joe Biden seems normal people will vote for him. And if Joe Biden becomes President he will change the election process making it easier to rig in Democrat’s favour. And if Democrats stay in power forever they will defund Police, dissolve the military and take everyone’s guns. And with no military, police or guns the communists can walk right in and enslave everyone. And with everybody enslaved, the Democrats and communists will harvest their organs. And with endless organs and an enslaved population the democrat communist overlords will live forever in luxury fortresses built by slaves. And in the luxury fortresses they will achieve their final goal, which is to spend everyday of their over-extended lives, looking at themselves in giant mirrors, playing back recordings of themselves saying how woke they are.

    So, the weather modification tech was real all along.. Thank you for the update, CNET..!!

      Yes, it’s finally allowed and even encouraged to talk about. As covid fades into the background, our evil overlords require the next scam to rob the people of their liberty and prosperity, That scam is “climate change”.

    Why those seeds ignited at relatively small elevation?

    • Greg Murphy

      April 25, 2021 at 8:23 pm

      They’re high enough for updrafts to mix them with low rain clouds.

    April 25, 2021 at 6:12 pm

    it’s an interesting idea but we need our resources also going into direct solar management and what is going on with subsidizing solar panels in California?

    April 25, 2021 at 6:30 pm

    Wow – how much are they paying to increase the amount of rain by 10%?

      $2.27/acre-foot is the state average.

    Bill gates is attempting launch balloons in the stratosphere to spray metallic aerosols to permanently block out the sun. This must be prevented.

  25. Moe Money

    April 26, 2021 at 1:23 am

    You don’t realize what else they have used this same tech for. But instead it was airplanes that carried the contaminates to the “target area”.

    OMG… And a lot of “smart” people called us conspiracy theorists.. It’s well documented, like the japanese who used some types of fireworks for cloudseeding in WO I. Pratt and Whitney also got patents for cloudseeding with planes. The Russians did it also after the Tjernobyl disaster.🐸

    Ok here’s what i see, you could increase productivity by adding and changeing the flare’s distribution platform to not only be about 60feet of the ground on almost miniture oil rig’s but not able to take a person up to change flare’s, and then most important around the edge of the stucture at the top giant industrial fan’s to blow silver iodine faster in to place it would increase success and yeald.

    Water is like currency, maybe even more valuable. A few years ago Egypt said an attempt by nations upstream on the Nile to stop water would be considered an act of war. This is kind of the same. The water in the clouds is now being controlled by, i am sure, a government agency who only cares about the population they are responsible for. This is not the beginning, it is an end. Food companies who want to force competitors out can take all the water and cause drought in other areas.

    And, we are always told a compound is inert. If it is inert why is it causing change to environment? Stop believing all these BS lies corporations and government are selling. Think for yourself, it is actually a good thing.
