Why Bill Gates Is Funding Solar Geoengineering Research
Fires burning across the Amazon rainforest have renewed the debate about solutions to climate change. Bill Gates is backing the first high-altitude experiment of one radical approach called solar geoengineering. It’s meant to mimic the effects of a giant volcanic eruption. Thousands of planes would fly at high altitudes, spraying millions of tons of particles around the planet to create a massive chemical cloud that would cool the surface.
“Modeling studies have found that it could reduce the intensity of heat waves, for instance, apparently it could reduce the rate of sea level rise. It could reduce the intensity of tropical storms,” said Andy Parker, project director at the Solar Radiation Management Governance Initiative.
The technology is not far from being ready and it’s affordable, but it could cause massive changes in regional weather patterns and eradicate blue sky.
“These consequences might be horrific. They might involve things like mass famine, mass flooding, drought of kinds that will affect very large populations,” said Stephen Gardiner, author of “A Perfect Moral Storm: The Ethical Tragedy of Climate Change.”
Watch the video to learn how it would work and hear the debate around the ethics and efficacy of solar geoengineering.

Taylor Farms has been linked to cyclosporiasis and salmonella outbreaks this summer. After years of consolidation, experts say the company’s ability to control every stage of the supply chain has made it indispensable to grocers and restaurant chains, while raising the stakes for consumers when things go wrong. CNBC food and wellness reporter Brandon Gomez explains how the U.S. became so reliant on Taylor Farms.

They're always spraying chemical clouds here in central illinois. They were doing it today in the middle of december. Of course if you tell someone they'll say you're a crazy conspiracy theorist amd they'll have absolutely 0 knowledge on the topic because they are stupid dumbed down slaves. If this is such a democracy why don't they let us vote on whether or not we want mass amounts of man made chemicals sprayed over us? Geo-engineering is illegal in mexico. US government is super evil. I wonder how much those pilots i saw today spryaint for several hours over the same area until the chem cloud expands are getting paid? I wonfer how much tax slave money it cost? This is all an anti human scam. Chemtrails have been going on for quite some time.

Geoengineering has been ongoing for over 70 years now… geoengineering is defined as large scale intervention in Earth's natural systems to counteract climate "change"; yet, these projects which are executed daily – under commercial, scientific, and military direction – are the largest driver of these "changes". Mainstream media repeatedly fails to cover the full story. Bill Gates – a huge investor and funder in geoengineering projects understands the value in controlling global media and climate. Whether it's funding of FICER (Harvard geoengineering), or his own private investments in SRM/CDR, his )and other billionaires and military control over weather is wreaking havoc on the planet and natural weather systems.

It’s skullduggery. The earths poles are shifting and that continues to weaken our magnetic field. This allows more solar energies in. They are calling these changes man-made. they are riding this lie as far as they can and ushering in changes that only benefit the the ultra rich and the global agenda.
