Environmental Hacking
Five years ago, during the biggest hype of the global warming fears, there were scientists who were saying that the planet was facing something akin to an extinction level environmental catastrophe. The entire process of a scientific scare gave way to all sorts of movements towards pressuring people into believing that anthropogenic global warming was indeed a reality and that there needed to be some very drastic measures that needed to be carried out in order to avoid a major environmental catastrophe.
It was argued that perhaps the planet was beyond repairing itself and that it was mankind’s responsibility to go in and do a surgical “operation” called geoengineering.
Geoengineering of the planet has been called many other things: climate engineering, climate remediation, climate intervention and, in some circles, it is compared to planetary chemotherapy. While skeptics argue that there is no way science has the power to control the weather, science has said that they have the power in extreme conditions to alter the atmosphere and will do it if necessary to somehow “save” the planet form extinction.
What we are truly witnessing with geoengineering is junk science evolving into mad science and literally confirming all of the fears presented by those who keep a close watch on things like chemtrails or ionospheric heating.
The mad schemes of geoengineering are a threat to the planet and it is also evident that so are global warming alarmists, especially alarmists with enough money to carry out experiments that could create an environmental catastrophe such as methane releases into the atmosphere, earthquakes and weather modification.
In ocean iron fertilization, for example, the amount of carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere may be much lower than predicted, as carbon taken up by plankton may be released back into the atmosphere from dead plankton, rather than being carried to the bottom of the sea and sequestered.
Russ George is one of those mad individuals that feel that it is his duty to combat global warming with his company Planktos. Planktos’ big idea for combating global warming is that you dump some iron into the ocean, it creates a massive phytoplankton bloom, then the algae absorbs carbon dioxide through the process of photosynthesis.
The idea that he proposed was declared risky and possibly reckless. The thing that was overlooked by him and his band of mad scientists is that when algae dies it emits methane which is worse for the atmosphere than carbon dioxide. However the obvious risks of dumping chemicals into the ocean did not faze George and his half baked effort at geoengineering. It did not stop him, George dumped 100 tons of iron sulphate into the Pacific Ocean.
The first reports about the project, which appeared in British newspaper The Guardian on the 15th of October 2012, presented it as a rogue geoengineering scheme – the largest in history and in “blatant violation” of international treaties. Critics suggested that Russ George had persuaded the Haida Nation village of Old Massett on the Queen Charlotte Islands of Haida Gwaii to fund the project by promising that it would be possible to sell carbon credits for the carbon dioxide taken up by phytoplankton.
He is now being investigated for misrepresenting his intentions and violating a moratorium on climate modification and geoengineering efforts. Andrew Parker of the Belfer Center at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government told the New York Times that George’s actions had apparently violated an international convention on ocean dumping and a U.N. convention on ocean fertilization for geoengineering purposes, along with a set of voluntary principles on geoengineering developed at Oxford.
George maintained plausible deniability by once again claiming that he wasn’t geoengineering at all: he was just trying to help the indigenous Haida people who live the region to re-invigorate their salmon fishery by increasing the fishes’ food supply.
Scientists can only be outraged at such a rogue display of mad science.
On October 28th, 2012, a 7.7 earthquake hit the coast of British Columbia and there has been as many as 40 aftershocks including one that measured 6.4 in magnitude. The quake sent many residents on the coast fleeing for higher ground due to tsunami warnings that were issued as far away as Hawaii. The earthquake originated on the island of Haida Gwaii, the same Queen Charlotte Islands region that Russ George did his mad man scheme of dumping iron sulphate into the ocean.
The iron sulphate may or may not be the issue; however, there may be much more to the story including what effects if any, iron sulphate would have if a electromagnetic signal could be bounced off of it for the possibility of weather control or environmental tinkering.
Now Russ George and his band of mad scientists are just a drop in the bucket. Let’s extend our imaginations to the idea of plausible deniability and the idea of a rogue nation with the right kind of science create a scenario where they can somehow alter the environment over an area that they feel ii an enemy and kill off millions of people by altering the environment to create mega storms and huge earthquakes.
This makes something like HAARP look like a very intricate tinker toy. Using both HAARP and some other catalyst in tandem creating a binary effect could render strange storm and earthquake scenarios that could be continuous.
Coincidentally, since his little experiment, we have been seeing disastrous weather stories in the news and New Jersey has just had a small earthquake in the same area as where Sandy made landfall. Not to say that George is responsible for Hurricane Sandy, but if anyone questions the possibility of environmental tinkering to bring about devastating storms, this example of irresponsibility should be noted and remembered when the argument over whether or not science can control the environment is ridiculed.
It needs to be said – and it must be stressed – that the reality of weather control exists. Geoengineering research began as a war tactic in the 1940s for the US and the Soviet Union during the Cold War During the Vietnam War, the US used geoengineering to flood certain areas. Then in 1976, 85 countries signed the U.N. Convention on the Prohibition of Military or Any Other Hostile Use of Environmental Modification Techniques.
The Environmental Modification Convention generally prohibits weaponizing geoengineering techniques. However, this does not eliminate the risk. Geoengineering techniques may serve as a weapon of mass destruction creating droughts or famines designed to destroy or disable an enemy.
They could also be used simply to make battlefield conditions more favorable to one side or the other in a war.
This happened of course during the Vietnam War with Operation Popeye. This operation extended the Monsoon season over Laos. Thee operation seeded clouds with silver iodide, resulting in the targeted areas seeing an extension of the monsoon period an average of 30 to 45 days. As the continuous rainfall slowed down the truck traffic, it was considered relatively successful. It created hazardous mud conditions for the enemy.
There are laws or treaties that can prevent the manipulation of the climate as a weapon of war; it could be argued that geoengineering is itself a manipulation and thus destroying or disabling the geoengineering structures is not prohibited. A new legal framework may be necessary in the event that large-scale geoengineering becomes established.
Weather tech and the idea of geoengineering, being perfected under the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program or HAARP. HARRP was part of the Strategic Defense Initiative however there is a compelling argument that it is being used for rogue science. Recent scientific evidence suggests that HAARP is fully operational and has the ability of potentially triggering floods, droughts, hurricanes and earthquakes. From a military standpoint, HAARP is a weapon of mass destruction. Potentially, it constitutes an instrument of conquest capable of selectively destabilizing agricultural and ecological systems of entire regions.
The United Nations should be addressing the issue of “environmental warfare” alongside the debate on whether or not “global warming” alarmists will ruin the ecosystem by doing their own rogue experiments while misrepresenting their actions and lying in order to carry out dangerous experimentation with mother nature.
