Bill Gates’s radical plan to “save the planet” from “climate change” by blocking out the Sun has officially launched as scientists began pumping chemicals into the sky this week.
As Slay News has previously reported, Bill Gates has long been advocating for the plan to fight “global warming” using experimental geoengineering to block the Sun.
The idea, promoted by Gates and leftist billionaire George Soros, involves pumping manmade white clouds into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight away from the planet’s surface.
The radical scheme would lower the planet’s temperature and allegedly “combat global warming.”
Soros claims the technology will help to prevent ice sheets from melting.
Ice sheets melting in Greenland in particular, he claimed, could doom human civilization.
“Our civilization is in danger of collapsing because of the inexorable advance of climate change,” Soros said.
“The melting of the Greenland ice sheet would increase the level of the oceans by seven meters.
“That poses a threat to the survival of our civilization,” he alleged.
The method pushed by Bill Gates involves increasing aerosol concentrations in the stratosphere to reflect solar radiation away from the Earth.
Gates has been funding a major project at Harvard using balloons to deploy aerosols.
However, Gates’s Harvard project was shut down following pushback from the public over the plan.
Nevertheless, another group of scientists has now been advancing Gates’s plan, the Wall Street Journal is reporting.
The scientists are injecting reflective particles into the sky, dumping chemicals in the ocean, and spraying saltwater in the air in a desperate effort to stop or reverse “climate change.”
They claim techniques are necessary to cool the planet because global efforts to check greenhouse gas emissions are failing.
These geoengineering approaches were once considered taboo by scientists and regulators who feared that tinkering with the environment could have unintended consequences.
However, researchers are receiving taxpayer funds and private investments to advance Gates’s plans.
The plan involves three experimental methods of blocking out sunlight.
Marine Cloud Brightening, is a research project led by Southern Cross University as part of the $64.55 million, or 100 million Australian dollars, Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program.
The program involves modifying clouds to make them reflect sunlight away from the Earth to supposedly stop “global warming.”
This week, researchers aboard a ship off the northeastern coast of Australia near the Whitsunday Islands started spraying a briny mixture through high-pressure nozzles into the air in an attempt to brighten low-altitude clouds that form over the ocean.
Scientists hope bigger, brighter clouds will reflect sunlight away from the Earth, shade the ocean surface, and cool the waters around the Great Barrier Reef.
In Israel, a startup called Stardust Solutions has begun testing a system to disperse a cloud of tiny reflective particles about 60,000 feet in altitude.
These geoengineered clouds reflect sunlight away from Earth to cool the atmosphere in a concept known as solar radiation management, or SRM.
Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution are preparing to pour 6,000 gallons of a liquid solution of sodium hydroxide, a component of lye, into the ocean 10 miles south of Martha’s Vineyard this summer.
They hope the chemical base will act like a big tablet of Tums, lowering the acidity of a patch of surface water and absorbing 20 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, storing it “safely” in the ocean.
Experiments aimed at cooling the atmosphere by reflecting sunlight away from Earth are an attempt to mimic what happens when a volcano erupts.
In 1991, Mount Pinatubo, an active volcano in the Philippines, spewed sulfur and ash into the upper atmosphere, lowering the Earth’s temperature by .5 degrees Celsius (. 9 degrees Fahrenheit) for an entire year.
But until a few years ago, many scientists opposed human interventions.
Scientists feared that such experiments would create a slippery slope that would allow society to avoid making tough decisions about reducing emissions and could ultimately backfire.
However, as global elites such as Gates and Soros, along with their allies in the World Economic Forum (WEF) and United Nations (UN), have been advocating such plans, these taboos and fears have gradually eroded, despite the same risks remaining.
In 2022, Democrat President Joe Biden’s White House also published “Guidelines on Solar Radiation Modification.”
The guidelines state:
This Research Plan was prepared in response to a requirement in the joint explanatory statement accompanying Division B of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022, directing the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), with support from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), to provide a research plan for “solar and other rapid climate interventions.”
Not only do we need brighter clouds, we need more ash in the sky to darken it.
Ironically, the short-term risk is that one of these plans is actually successful in lowering global temperatures.
Data will almost certainly be manipulated to show success if for no other reason than to get more funding for “saving the planet.”
However, the long-term risk, of actually cooling the planet to satisfy the globalist “green” agenda, would be catastrophic.
