As reported this week by the Telegraph geo-engineering experiments to dim the sun will be granted permission by the Government within weeks. Solar geo-engineering refers to a set of proposed technologies designed to reduce global warming by reflecting a portion of incoming sunlight back into space.
Injecting chemicals into the atmosphere
The experiments will include outdoor trials injecting aerosols into the atmosphere or brightening clouds to reflect sunshine. The government's Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA) has set aside £50 million for projects which will be announced in the coming weeks.
Professor Mark Symes, programme director for ARIA, said there would be 'small controlled outdoor experiments on particular approaches'. Although, according to what most of us can see in the skies and the sheer volume of evidential photos posted on social media, many people assumed the spraying started years ago.
It's big business
Indeed, the UK government has already poured millions into geo-engineering experiments through the Advanced Research and Invention Agency (ARIA) and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), investigating ways to dial down the sun’s rays.
Is the planet just a malfunctioning App?
Despite the level of impact this activity will have on everybody, it would appear that the people get no say. Independent investigative journalist Dr Maryanne Demasi who is writes for top tiered medical journals states, "A small group of technocrats, funded by billionaire zealots like Bill Gates, are treating the planet as if it were a malfunctioning app in need of another "update."
She goes onto say, "We saw during Covid how easily governments bulldozed the principle of informed consent, coercing individuals into taking experimental vaccines under threat of exclusion and punishment. Now, with geo-engineering, the changes will be imposed on humans, animals, and plants — without any ability to opt out..."
The Mail Online reports that geo-engineering could make climate change worse by triggering destructive weather patterns.
Commercial strategy - once you start you can't stop
The technique is a 'risky strategy' with weather experts stating that this activity could, "wreak havoc on our weather patterns, triggering severe droughts or devastating cyclones". The study from Rutgers University in New Jersey found that suddenly halting so-called 'solar geoengineering' would drastically accelerate climate change, with severe consequences for the planet's wildlife,
Professor Alan Robock says, "Rapid warming after stopping geo-engineering would be a huge threat to the natural environment and biodiversity. If geo-engineering ever stopped abruptly, it would be devastating, so you would have to be sure that it could be stopped gradually, and it is easy to think of scenarios that would prevent that.
"Imagine large droughts or floods around the world that could be blamed on geoengineering, and demands that it stop. Can we ever risk that?"
Man's attempts to mess with Mother Nature have a nasty habit of not turning out as planned.
