Environmentalists successfully push back.
PROGRAM SHUTS DOWN
A U.S research non-profit called the Arctic Ice Project (AIP) is closing its operations and has cancelled ongoing geoengineering experiments in the Arctic, citing environmental concerns and “potential risks to the Arctic food chain”.
The Silicon Valley-based organisation proposed the release of tiny silica particles over parts of the Arctic, which would ‘reflect sunlight from the surface and cool down melting ice’.
Announcing the shutdown last week, AIP said test results – along with “scepticism towards geoengineering”, funding barriers and “resistance” to introducing new materials into the Arctic Ocean – had led it to end the project, which was conceived over a decade ago.
Climate and indigenous campaigners welcomed the shutdown of AIP’s experiments in Alaska and noted that indigenous communities in Alaska have long opposed the project’s activities over fears of collateral impacts.
“Our concerns about the reckless use of harmful materials were dismissed, yet we knew that the health of our ecosystems and the wisdom of our people must not be overlooked,” said Panganga Pungowiyi, an organiser at the Indigenous Environmental Network (IEN).
The proposed technique is one of several controversial methods aimed at ‘slowing down global warming and its effects on the Earth’.
These emerging technologies have garnered growing attention in international policy discussions, with some countries like Switzerland proposing regulation. Other countries like Mexico have placed cautionary bans on experiments.
More than 190 countries have signed a moratorium on new geoengineering experiments under the United Nations’ Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), a decision that was reaffirmed at last year’s COP16 summit in Cali, Colombia.
But despite this, the radical practice continues with private enterprise and government powers behind the wheel, playing God in an attempt to manipulate the climate to their will.
PLAYING WITH THE CLIMATE
Dozens of new experiments have taken place in the last five years, including the use of methods that are currently covered by the international moratorium.
There are at least 27 ocean fertilisation experiments (harvesting plankton in the ocean to increase photosynthesis and capture CO2) and 17 ‘solar radiation management’ experiments (spraying sulphur particles into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight and ‘cool the planet’).
Most are in the U.S, which is not a signatory to the UN’s convention, allowing companies to engage in geoengineering tests under the Weather Modification Act of 1976.
The White House is currently undertaking a five-year ‘solar management atmospheric study’, with the WB-57 aircraft, a converted B-57 bomber, now operating out of Fairbanks, Alaska.
US-based startup Make Sunsets drew fire because it sprayed sulphur particles into the air in Mexico without prior consent, leading the country to enact a ban on similar tests.
It’s not just the United States, either.
UK-based startup Real Ice seeks to “refreeze” the Arctic by pumping seawater from below the ice to the surface during winter months to try and thicken ice cover. It aims to test the technique in Canada’s northern Nunavut region and eventually sell “cooling credits”.
“Cooling credits” are a similar concept to carbon credits, where companies fund emissions-cutting projects to offset their climate impact.
It’s all a big game at the end of the day, folks.
Now, as we now, Australia is also home to several programs and experiments.
The radical mad scientists continue to push ahead with these programs despite the known risks that could be caused to the planet and many societies.
Finally, with this story, we see some actual environmentalism taking place – saving the planet, animals and habitats from chemical bombardments of the elite.
Hopefully the first of many more to come as geoengineering goes mainstream.
