    It’s called geoengineering and many governments of the world have admitted to doing it. https://www.epa.gov/geoengineering/about-geoengineering

    They just rebranded the term chemtrails to geoengineering, so they can technically say that chemtrails are conspiracy theory, but geoengineering is the same thing as chemtrails.

    Geoengineering is actually happening and has been happening for decades all over the world, and everyone is openly admitting it.

      Except… they’re not the same thing. Geoengineering has been going on for over half a century, and involves dumping particles into different layers of the atmosphere. These particles are generally inert, but cause localized condensation.

      That’s a totally different thing than the chemtrail conspiracies which argue that chemicals that aren’t inert are being distributed to make it into the air we breathe and the water we drink in order to alter the behavior of people.

      Chemtrails are effectively closer to microplastic pollution than they are to geoengineering.
