Florida Republican senators have introduced SB 56, a bill that aims to ban weather modification activities in the state.
Introduced by Senator Ileana Garcia, this legislation targets chemical and technological methods used to manipulate weather patterns, temperature, or sunlight intensity, effectively preventing the controversial practice often associated with geoengineering.
What Does SB 56 Say?
The bill repeals existing provisions in Florida statutes related to weather modification.
It specifically prohibits “the injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of 36 chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or devices 37 into the atmosphere within the borders of this state for the express purpose of 38 affecting temperature. , weather, or 39 the intensity of sunlight.”
Violators can face severe penalties, including fines of up to $10,000 and possible trespass charges.
SB 56 is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, but is likely to face opposition from industry stakeholders and environmental scientists.
Florida isn’t the only state fighting weather manipulation. Earlier this year, the Tennessee State Senate took a definitive stand against the controversial topic of “chemtrails” by passing it SB 2691/HB 2063.
The bill, which aims to ban the intentional release of chemicals into the atmosphere for geoengineering purposes, was sponsored by Representative Monty Fritts (R-Kingston) and Senator Steve Southerland (R-Morristown) and won approval in the Senate on Friday, The Tennessean reported.
The law is based on the statement that “it is documented that the federal government or another entity acting on behalf of the federal government or at the request of the federal government may conduct geoengineering experiments with the intentional release of chemicals into the atmosphere, and that such activity may occur in the state. of Tennessee.”
The new bill seeks to prohibit such activities, stating, “The intentional injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus within the borders of this country into the atmosphere for the express purpose of not affecting the temperature , the weather, or the intensity of sunlight.”
In New Hampshire, two motivated House Representatives, Jason Gerhard, Merrimack – District 25, and Kelley Potenza, Strafford – District 19, have introduced “Clean Atmosphere Preservation Act” NH House Bill (HB) 1700.
The three-page bill establishes regulations to prevent the intentional release of pollution and hazardous emissions into New Hampshire’s atmosphere. This bill aims to bring forward the subject many experts have warned us about for years, as well as the transparency that is necessary for the citizens of NH so that we can educate and unite to stop the onslaught of this destructive environment that we are experiencing.
HB 1700 mentions pollution released during cloud scattering or weather modification activities and related electromagnetic radiation, all of which are defined as pollution by scientists. “Even Verizon and AT&T define what is called pollution. So clearly, we are not worried about cannons making snow, because we know what comes out of it, or looking to regulate domestic aircraft engine emissions as some have disingenuously suggested,” said Rep. Gerhard.
Marjorie Taylor Greene also made headlines in October.
After Representative Greene tweeted a simple and accurate statement last week about weather manipulation, the mainstream media went on autopilot mode, calling him a “nonsensical conspiracy theory”.
Community notes added to Rep.’s tweet. Greene, who states, “While small-scale ‘cloud seeding’ to create localized rain is possible, hurricanes and other large storms cannot be produced with modern technology.”
Interestingly, even this note acknowledges that the weather can, in fact, be manipulated—proving Greene’s point. Rep. Greene did not specifically mention the hurricane in her tweet; instead, he widely suggested that scientists have the ability to influence weather patterns.
Yes they can control the weather.
It’s rude for someone to lie and say it can’t be done.
