so the idiots now claim that coal fly ash is captured in powerstation scrubbers - only to be then loaded onto " chemtrail jets " to be sprayed back into the atmosphere
any they wonder why we laugh at them
Yep. Got me there, nobody here has been to the center of the galaxy either and yet there it is.
If you go outside on a clear day and look up toward the sun—being careful to block out the bright disk with your thumb—you might see a hazy white region surrounding our star.
This haze is caused by airplanes, and it is gradually whitening blue skies, says Charles Long of NOAA’s Earth System Research Laboratory in Boulder, Colorado. “We might be actually conducting some unintentional geoengineering here,” Long said at a press conference this week at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in San Francisco.
Geoengineering involves the manipulation of an environmental process in such a way, usually deliberate, that it affects the Earth's climate.
There must be something in the atmosphere scattering the sun’s light. “Small ice particles fit the bill,” he (Long)said.
Long thinks air traffic is the most likely source of those particles. Exhaust from an airplane engine contains aerosols and water vapor. High in the atmosphere, where it is extremely cold, the particles serve as nuclei for ice crystals, which form the bright contrails seen in a plane’s wake. Some of these contrails, scientists have found, CAN contribute to climate change.
Contrails. Hmmmm. What chemicals, produced from jet fuel, will be found in those icy particulates hazing up our sky?

'contrails can contribute to climate change'.

Well, well, well...looky here, right off of Smithsonian.com, published on Dec. 16th, 2015.

1. 'Geoengineering'
2. 'Caused by airplanes'
3. 'Usually deliberate'

Can...not might or may...can, so sayeth the Smithsonian.

I knew our skies were different. I'll settle for 'contrails can contribute to climate change'.
