You’ve seen them since you were a kid: contrails are the lines in the sky made from a plane’s exhaust system as it flies by. The only thing is, if you’re past the age of 25, when you were a child you probably didn’t see contrails last as long in the sky as they do now. What’s changed?
It was only 5 or 6 years ago that chemtrails were seen as a complete conspiracy theory. This was mainly due to a lack of data and limited public knowledge. Most whistleblowers on this topic had yet to emerge, and the subject of geoengineering was neither common discussion matter nor well understood.
What is Geoengineering?
Geoengineering is the deliberate and large-scale intervention into the Earth’s climatic system. This is done through various means, one of which is the spraying of chemicals into the atmosphere via planes. Weather modification dates back to the 1940s, when General Electric Company demonstrated that a cloud of super-cooled water droplets could be transformed into ice crystals when seeded with dry ice.
Shortly after this it was discovered that fine particles of pure silver iodide, with a crystal structure similar to that of ice, could be effectively used for global weather modification.
The Hughes Aircraft Company even has a patent dating back more than twenty years ago, to 1990, which contains 18 claims to reduce global warming through stratospheric seeding with aluminum oxide, thorium oxide, and refractory Welsbach material.
Fast forward to today, and we’re seeing even more chemicals added to the mix. For this reason you can understand why so many people are concerned.
In recent years there has been a decline in the support for weather modification research, and a tendency to move directly into operational projects.”

What’s The Difference Between Contrails and Chemtrails?
Strictly from a visual perspective it can be a bit misleading, although there are certainly things to look for.
Regular contrails are the result of exhaust being released from engine turbines as a plane flies. Typically they are white in color and can be seen a short distance behind the plane as it passes, dissipating after about 10 seconds or so.
Chemtrails, on the other hand, come from specific planes designed to spray a particular mix of chemicals into the air in an attempt to modify the earth’s upper climate. Typically these types of trails can appear white, smoky, or even brown. They last in the sky for hours and spread wider and wider as time goes on.
As we will discuss below, the chemical compositions of these two types of trails are vastly different, with one being quite dangerous to human health and the environment.
According to M. Granger Morgan, the University and Lord Chair Professor of Engineering and Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon University, in Developing an International Framework for Geoengineering:
I want to reiterate what John said, which is I think that any research in this area needs to be open. I think it would be truly disastrous if, you know, we discovered a few years from now that there was a “black program” that some government had stood-up to sort of learn on-the-quiet how to do this. . . .We do stuff in the stratosphere all the time, of course, and so it’s not as though the stratosphere is absolutely pristine. But you don’t want to have people going off and doing things that involve large radiative forcings; or go on for extended periods; or, for that matter, provide lots of reactive surfaces that could result in significant ozone destruction.”
