Although cloud seeding itself does not technically fall under the definition of "Geoengineering", IMO it is a form of it for sure. Alteration of the atmosphere at anytime by anyone IMO is Geoengineering. It is NOT natural and is intended to alter the outcome of weather, the suns rays, etc, etc.
BTW explain to me what part of that picture is just a small plane for spraying? That is a COUNTRY using a LARGE plane for spraying........it is also form 6 years ago. If they were doing it then what are countries doing now.
Is every single plane that crosses the sky spraying....no...BUT ......is every single plane NOT spraying......NO.....some are. Proving which planes are is close to impossible obviously from the stories told of this being a "black ops" type operation.
BTW stop telling me I need to learn more about the weather or geoengineering, I know plenty and if you don't like my opinion on the subject then don't respond to what I write.
You act like you are Gods dedicated gift to the debunking chemtrails forum. The debunkers know facts huh? You have yet to post one single salient fact IMO.
No matter how much you want to believe that chemical aerosol believers are dangerous and crazy doesn't make it so.

You cannot just "debunk" something based on how observers react on it. That is not denying ignorance.
No, but with scientific research and study you can debunk something which is the main way to deny ignorance, something that chemtrail believers do not seem to not understand.

Yeah, we do know.
Any trail, behind any plane, flown by anyone, at any time, anywhere in the world is a contrail. Unless and until someone can prove that there is something more than the expected elements of burning jet fuel through a jet engine>
Since planes have been flying.
If you think differently without more evidence that "looking up", you are embracing ignorance, believing an internet-generated myth, and not thinking for yourself.

I can't prove that at all - and I'm not actually trying to.
However I can prove that contrails do exist - I presume you are not going to argue about that??
And I can compare trails identified as "chemtrails" from airliners and see that they look like contrails, are generated like contrails, and behave like contrails.
So I ask what it is that makes you think they are not contrails?
And when someone says "because they last a long time" or "becuse they spread out across the sky" then I can point out that actually contrails do do that - and so I can reasonably say that your reason for identifying them as something other than contrails is not valid.
If you can provide me with some credible evidence that a trail is not a contrail then I will accept it - not happily because I do not like the idea of people "spraying stuff" any more than anyone else.
But until then I think my position on this subject is more rational than yours.

So, with a global spraying operation having supposedly taken place for the past two decades in the skies over all our heads but with no planes, no personnel, no supply chain, no money trail and no physical residues WHATSOEVER, you may understand why "you cant prove they aren't" is frankly hilarious.

My position is more rational because it starts with something we DO know exists, and compares reports and photos and videos, etc, with that known quantity. And since they have all the characteristics of that known phenomena it is reasonable to conclude that they ARE that known phenomena.
Yours starts with the position that there "is something going on" because of stuff that was done in the past - but you have no actual evidence of anything being done now yet you still claim that "it" is happening - even though you cannot identify what "it" is!
I have no problem with you being suspicious of the Govt, military,, etc because of past actions - that is right and proper.
But "spraying" through the 1950's to 1970's is simply not evidence of "spraying" from commercial airliners now.

Tehre is actualy a term that covers this - evidence of absence
In some cases it is possible to prove a negative - for example I can "prove" I have no russian currency in my pocket by emptying my pocket - if there was russian currency in it you'd expect it to be there, and since ther isn't you have evidence of that engative.
Now with "chemtrails" the subject is massive - it's not jsut a pocket in trousers - it is the whole atmosphere, so ti's not really possible to say you've checked the whole attmosphere and every suingle contrail ever mande.
Nonethless IF chemtails existed you would expect to see some evidence - as you popint out where's the materials? Where's the documentation (eg weight and balance figures, amintenance manual for "different" fuels, bills, invoices, policies, procedures, etc), where's teh fuel samples? Where's the air samples? (Celarly peole have taken air samples - but they fail to show that there's anything "odd" actually in them) Where's the whistleblowers? (Tehre's been 1 or 2 anonymouse ones but their stories are nonsense)

See, there is the rub.
"Chemtrail" believers are the people who make the claims, therefore the onus is on them to prove that what they claim is true.
I cannot prove something does not exist, and don't have to. There is decades of study about contrails, going all the way back to when they were first seen....over 80 years worth. They have been described, measured, modeled, observed by professionals. Testing is done on the trail itself many times. Contrails are a given of air travel.
What believers cannot prove is anything they continue to say about "chemtrails" is actuality. There are no valid tests, no credible whistleblowers, no real admission from someone in the know....just a bunch of anecdotal stories, sloppy testing, suspicion, supposition, and paranoia. Believers therefore continue to only believe.
I choose to know. I know the science that makes contrails happen, know good science method from bad, and know to question the source of everything. Before I began debunking, I thoroughly researched both sides of the question. I am not a professional in any pertinent field; I learned what I know. "Chemtrail" theory does not hold up to critical thinking.

Read my post below you. I can give you evidence, but you will deny it.
And how can you say that chemtrails do not exist without any proof? You can be certain that they do not exist, but that does not mean they do not. [/quoet]
Indeed - which is why I say that so far there is no credible evidence that chemtrails exist - all eth supposed evidence persented to date is not actually credible at all - indeed some of it is obviously and deliberately fake.
[quoet]This time the burden of proof is on you. You are making claims that they do not exist, and I would like to know where the proof of that is.
emphasis mine
So I do not see how your position is more rational, considering the fact that the military have done many things in the past that we do not know.
And chemtrails do not have to come from airliners, it can come from military planes.

I can link you to articles of air samples being taken that do show odd particles in the air. But of course, you will say it is faked.
