  2. The article is behind paywall so maybe this is already in the article.

    These contrails left by airplanes trap heat in the atmosphere, just like greenhouse gasses do. This actually causes about half the warming effects of the aviation industry. I also could be avoided really easy by avoiding certain places in the air(I believe really cold ones), with only 1% longer flight times on average. So if the title of the article is real and there is something being done against this that would be great!

  3. It would too funny if they accidently were banning jet engines.

  4. Another imaginary threat cooked up by the people who like to…

    hand out deficit exploding tax cuts to billionaire trust fund babies

    yap about thoughts and prayers after school shootings

    start illegal wars for corporate profits

    ignore the Constitution

    divide and conquer

  5. Fifty years ago someone misheard the term “contrails” and here we are.

  7. Contrails is real issue trapping more heat. It would be funny if they actually fight climate change by accident requiring airlines to mitigate contrails.

  9. Because MEGA nuts will believe anything. No conspiracy is too dumb for a conservative.

  10. Since no one here actually reads the article, let me sum up some relevant points:

    * Tennessee and Florida have passed laws to ban weather modification via “chemtrials”. Similar laws are pending in other states.
    * No, these laws **do not** ban airplane contrails.
    * These laws are **bad for the fight against climate change** because they ban things like cloud-seeding (used to mitigate drought) and potential future mitigation like solar radiation modification.
    * The belief in chemtrails also hurt the fight against climate change, because disasters caused by climate change are instead blamed on something else that doesn’t exist.

  11. Right, let’s ignore the companies that actually pollute our soil, drinking water and air.

  12. I somehow got targeted with some instagram documentary nonsense of chemtrail activists. I know it’s all bullshit, but they make it seem very compelling. Easy to see how uninformed people could easily fall into the idiot vortex

  13. It’s another fake problem to scare their base which they end up “solving” said imaginary problems to look like they did something which in return keeps their support up.

  14. I chalk it up to the disappointment associated with learning that the moon landing was fake. /s

  15. Underdeveloped countries tend to have silly laws against things like witchcraft. Wouldn’t see that in a first world country.

  16. Because none of their donors object to chemtrails being banned.

  17. I’m pretty sure that these are unenforceable laws, since states are not allowed to control who flies over their airspace.

  18. Fascist scum who believe a fictional alien race wants to enslave humanity has taken over our world’s leadership. AI and social media lies made them more powerful than they should be. This is what happens if we let Big Tech do everything they want for the sake of Almighty Capitalism.

    May their dreams die. Fast.

  19. For the same reason people vote for politicians who vow to rid the US of the latest existential crisis – trans people. Idiots are made to be afraid of stuff they don’t understand, then offered a solution in the form of a conservative politician.

  20. Have you seen their base. This is just a GOP way to pad their pockets and appease the gullible.

    This way when an experiment needs to happen they can ask for $$$ for “permission”

  21. There’s literally more evidence for Bigfoot than Chemtrails lmao

  23. They’re also trying to ban VPNs, Porn and more unbannable things. Almost as if Bannonism had caused western politics to become the shittiest of dumb Babels. Almost as if it was done on purpose, and across the western world… Who’s sabotaging us? Other than ourselves…
