Is Human Tampering Causing Extreme Weather?
Posted on Saturday, January 19, 2008 (CST) by Thoth
Humans tampering with the atmosphere may be causing extreme weather patterns, experts believe. They believe that the debate on climate change has ignored the role of environmental manipulation projects. Artificial manipulation of the climate is nothing new. During the Vietnam war, the US military used cloud seeding techniques to cause torrential rain and disrupt enemy supply lines.
Last month, Chinese media reported that the Communist party was preparing 'rain-prevention techniques' to be used on the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics this year. But some experts believe that new technology can enable governments to manipulate climate patterns globally for military use.
Extreme weather patterns in recent years, such as record numbers of hurricanes, floods and droughts across the world, may have been the result of such technology being tested, they claim.
Without
concrete evidence to support them, such claims to many remain little
more than a hot topic for conspiracy theorists. But there are things
about the various atmospheric research projects run by the US military
that that do not stack up.
The High-Frequency Active
Auroral Research Program (HAARP) based in Gokona, Alaska, an array of
transmitters pointed toward the sky, is claimed to be a scientific
endeavour for studying the properties and behaviour of the upper
atmosphere (ionosphere).
It consists of an
'Ionospheric Research Instrument', which fires a beam of energy at the
upper atmosphere, and a series of other antenna for monitoring changes.
But to many the project
resembles a 'death ray' with all the hallmarks of a James Bond film.
Canadian economist and policy adviser Dr Michel Chossudovsky calls it a
"weapon of mass destruction".
The project is funded by
the U.S. airforce and navy, and on its website claims that a key
purpose is to "enhance communications and surveillance systems for both
civilian and defence purposes"
The idea is to magnify communications signals so they can be received by receivers on submarines and underground bunkers.
But, according to some, the
facility also possesses the capability to knock out communications in a
wide area of the world, by making modifications to the ionosphere.
If the facility has been
used for this purpose it is doubtful that we would ever find out. In
1977 the U.S. was signatory to an international convention which banned
"military or other hostile use of environmental modification techniques
having widespread, long-lasting or severe effects".
It defined "environmental
modification techniques" as "any technique for changing – through the
deliberate manipulation of natural processes—the dynamics, composition
or structure of the earth, including its biota, lithosphere,
hydrosphere and atmosphere, or of outer space".
However, according to Dr
Choussudovsky, the scientific establishment has since been mute on the
possibility that unusual weather patterns may have arisen from
artificial manipulation.
"This is one of the most
powerful weapons in the world but no-one mentions it at the policy
level. This has potentially devastating consequences for the
environment, yet no one dares to raise it when they meet on the global
climate agenda.
"This is a weapon of mass
destruction in the truest sense of the word. It could be used to
interfere with the climate in a wide area without anyone knowing
anything about it."
According to radiation expert Dr Rosalie Bertell, HAARP has the facility for disrupting weather patterns.
She said: "I believe that
this is an attempt to influence the course of the Vapor Rivers [streams
of vapour carried in the lower atmosphere], five each in the northern
and southern hemisphere, which bring rain from the tropics into the
temperate zones.
"The course of these
rivers, when changed, can cause drought or flooding. It is also likely
that the HAARP manipulations of the ionosphere can influence the shape
of the jet streams, which in turn have effects on temperature and local
weather patterns."
Her research is
corroborated by Nick Begich, an author and associate of Dr Bernard
Eastlund, one of the figures behind the creation of HAARP.
According to Dr
Choussudovsky, he owned a patent (US No: 4,686,605) entitled "Method
and Apparatus for Altering a Region in the Earth's Atmosphere,
Ionosphere and/or Magnetosphere", under a contract with Atlantic
Ritchfield Corporation (ARCO), whose subsidiary Advanced Power
Technologies Inc (APTI), completed the first stage of the HAARP project.
The Epoch Times was unable to officially verify the ownership of the patent.
There has however been
little official indication that HAARP is to be used for military
purposes. Conspiracy theorists point to an extract from the Air
University of the US Air Force, AF 2025 Final Report—a fanciful
document of future technologies—as evidence.
It reads: "U.S. aerospace
forces [will] 'own the weather' by capitalizing on emerging
technologies and focusing development of those technologies to
war-fighting applications ... From enhancing friendly operations or
disrupting those of the enemy via small-scale tailoring of natural
weather patterns to complete dominance of global communications and
counterspace control, weather-modification offers the war fighter a
wide-range of possible options to defeat or coerce an adversary."
However it is doubtful that the document, readily available online, carries any official indication of current policy.
A spokesman for the U.S. department for Defence was unavailable to comment on the accusation at the time of going to print.

Re: Is Human Tampering Causing Extreme Weather? by zoarian on Saturday, January 19, 2008 (CST) (User Info | Send a Message) http://fairiejewelry.com | | Major hurricanes in the US like Andrew, Ivan and Katrina were all caused by HAARP. Before Katrina hit ,the EMF's in Atlanta, yes in Atlanta, were so strong that I went home sick that day. Chemtrails are of course causeing even more problems on the planet not to mention to our own inner eco systems, viruses, morgellons, sinus infections and general dumbing down and depression. Oh, and BTW, its snowing here in ATL, a good way to clean the air!! They havent been spraying as much here as usual which of course makes me suspicious, and they also spray at night so we cant see it and then its cloudy by morning. And ATl has to be the most shut down of cities, very little (secret)govt awareness and harldy anyone i speak too notices or even cares about the trails. Awareness is a vibration and thus said i am trying to spread my awareness as fast as i can!! Also, there is a great article at Nexusmagaine about Hurricane Andrew and what shits FEMA was to the survivors of that ordeal.... |
