RE: Messing with Mother Nature : Cloud Seeding
Increasing the water table takes decades or centuries; it's laughable that was a reason given to seed the clouds. Seeding clouds shows how desperate Southern California for water.
The only reliable way SoCal has to secure water is desalination. There's two major hurdles for that to become reality. First, they have to figure out what to do with the salt slury after leaves the plant. The location of the discharge will be huge dead zone. Second, they need cheap power to run the plants. The best answer we have now is nuclear. Nuclear power is going to be a no go, in California or U.S.
Anyways, I'm baffled by their reasoning to seed the clouds.
Hey there @unicornvomit (great name, btw lol)... I want to be clear, raising the water table wasn't a reason given to seed the clouds... that was a leap made by me. Here in L.A. they're constantly about needing to 'raise the water table' and how 'this last storm didn't raise the water table enough to get us out of the drought yet'. The article I linked stated that they seeded the clouds to help us get out of the drought, and all of my intuition tells me messing with mother nature like this is the wrong thing to do for so many reasons.
The more I'm reading and learning about Geoengineering, the more convinced I am there is much, much more going on. Check out the video posted by @jamesc above.
