US Scientists Shoot Salt Crystals Into Atmosphere To Block Sunrays To Fight Climate Change, But Did Not Tell The Public To Avoid Scrutiny

Mainstream media is not even trying to hide it anymore, and are pretending as if this is totally normal.

Researchers at the University of Washington have covertly carried out what is being touted as the United States’ first-ever outdoor test to curb global warming by increasing cloud cover, by launching a mist of salt crystals into the atmosphere from the deck of a decommissioned aircraft carrier in the San Francisco Bay.

Robert Wood, the scientist for the team, said, “Every year that we have new records of climate change, and record temperatures, heat waves, it’s driving the field to look at more alternatives. Even ones that may have once been relatively extreme.”

The University of Washington’s study, “Field Study of Controlled-Release Sea Salt Aerosol Plume,” can be read here.

The news of this work was detailed in a piece by The New York Times last week, though did not garner a lot of attention as is.

The move led by researchers at the University of Washington has renewed questions about how to effectively and ethically study promising climate technologies that could also harm communities and ecosystems in unexpected ways. The experiment is spraying microscopic salt particles into the air, and the secrecy surrounding its timing caught even some experts off guard.

The Coastal Atmospheric Aerosol Research and Engagement, or CAARE, project is using specially built sprayers to shoot trillions of sea salt particles into the sky in an effort to increase the density — and reflective capacity — of marine clouds. The experiment is taking place, when conditions permit, atop the USS Hornet Sea, Air & Space Museum in Alameda, California, and will run through the end of May, according to a weather modification form the team filed with federal regulators…
