For several years the IPCC and the British Royal Society have shown images of air planes spraying into the atmosphere and call it Solar Radiation Management, SRM. In fact spraying from airplanes is one of the best loved methods of SRM proponents because it is so cheap. However they claim that the program is not yet being deployed. In part one you heard from residents of Shasta County in Northern California. They began testing rain and snow after spraying events and found chemical that only appear after airplane activity has obscured the sky. They are beginning to name the chemicals in chemtrails, among them aluminum, barium and strontium. For that they are called conspiracy theorists.
One of the most famous defenders of aerial spraying is the scientist David Keith. He is a Harvard physicist, and advisor to Bill Gates and Gates' private geoengineering projects. David Keith's book: A Case for Climate Engineering, was published by MIT. Keith admits to risks of aerial spraying, including damaging the ozone layer, creating acid rain and disrupting rainfall. However he says that climate change is so serious and CO2 reduction politically so difficult that governments may need to resort to climate engineering. He was on the Stephen Colbert Show in December 2013. In this short excerpt Colbert makes fun of conspiracies.
Excerpt from Stephen Colbert interview of David Keith Audio from Shasta County Board of Supervisors
This program continues with more testimony from the July 2014 meeting of the Shasta County Board of Supervisors. After repeated attempts to get the local and state agencies, that monitor air and water quality, to begin testing for chemicals named in geoengineering patents residents are requesting action from the ground up. They consider this a matter of public health and an issue of citizen's right to know. They ask why government agencies in the US refuse to do testing while discrediting those who demand it. What is there to hide they ask.
