THE SNOWMEN – Turning Warmth Into Winter By William Thomas

Screenheads clicking into Hollywood’s upcoming distractions can anticipate some improbable sci-fi antics this summer. But make believe can’t come close to what’s happening right over their bowed heads. It’s called “Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering” and it means exactly what you’d rather not ask.

By William Thomas

“Aerosols” are microscopic particles naturally or intentionally suspended in an increasingly angry atmosphere. Borrowing from Victor Galaz at the Stockholm Resilience Centre, we can say that geoengineering is the intentional, large-scale technological intervention in Earth’s atmosphere to mitigate the impacts of human-induced warming before critical thresholds are crossed from which there is no return.

Few of the scientists and billionaires urging the panicky and profitable rush to massively pollute already wheezing skies with sunlight-reflecting – and now, snow-making chemicals – realise that the aerosol spray planes have been flying in earnest since 1997. That’s when I first reported atmospheric engineering taking place over Canada and the United States while on assignment for Environment News Service.
