If you’re truly interested in the subject, contact the organizations actually doing research in the subject. Leave your tinfoil hat at home.

There are companies that do cloud seeding:

Nothing tinfoil about it.

  • Thank you. Every time I talk about cloud seeding in CA people have a strongly negative response without any facts and I'm not really sure why

    • Well, where are your facts? Did you contact them to find out what they can and cannot do?

      The conspiracy theories often imagine cloud seeding as some weather control superweapon that can create catastrophic floods or droughts. In reality, you're just giving water droplets or ice crystals something to condense around (usually silver iodide particles). You're working with what nature has already provided and you can't conjure storms from nothing or dramatically amplify them.

      But hey, maybe it's better limit your knowledge about a subject to just its name. It enables you to be afraid of things you don't understand. Some people crave that feeling.
