Chemtrails & Global Warming (Dec.2, 2007)

Original Title:
Childhood Questions and Revelations: Chemtrails and Global Warming

	Chemtrails.

I remember having a happy childhood, I had a loving family and I loved to play. I can recall in those early years laying on the grass and looking up at the sky, watching cloud formations and trying to come up with objects, cartoon characters or animals which resembled the white fluffy pillows that lay on the blue sheets of azure.

During that time as I lay in my bed of grass and gazed in wonder and imagination at the clouds which floated across the sky; I can recall the airplanes which would zip through the blue blanket leaving a trail of clouds of their own.

At first, this was somewhat puzzling as to how a motorized vehicle could create the same or similar haze as nature. But without ever having received an explanation as to what the trails were, I shrugged it off and let the years roll by.

Now if we may fast forward to the present, I recently came across an independent report from an environmental activist Shawn Mann entitled “Illegal Aerosol Spraying Operations and Chem trail Phenomenon“. After reading this report, the question I pondered on such a summer's day during my younger years resurfaced in my mind. What is that cloudy trail that is left in the sky after jets fly by? Only this time, I want an explanation.

Mann goes on to explain, that when the temperature begins to drop as our seasons change we can begin to see our own breath as the small droplets of water vapour make their way into the air by way of condensation. The process which happens 30, 000 feet into the air is very similar. Water droplets condense out of the plain and form a condensation trail; or in short, contrail.

As we exhale during cooler seasons and we see the misty clouds of breath, they never last long before dissipating. However, the similar process which is practiced high above our heads varies from one jet liner to the next.

Amy Foy, a researcher at Lancaster University (UK) went so far as to classify the several types of contrails left by aircrafts:

Persistent and Dispersed - Meaning they hang around and spread out’

“Persistent and Non Dispersed - Meaning they hang around, but don't spread out;

Non Persistent and Dispersed - Meaning they don't hang around, but spread out;

“Non Persistent and Non Dispersed - Meaning they don't hang around, or spread out.

Aircrafts are generally powered by Kerosene. Kerosene is classified as a “Hydrocarbon” which mainly contains nitrogen and sulphur. And when it burns the main compounds that form are:

Carbon Dioxide - which is a famous greenhouse gas that we all breathe out;

Sulphur Dioxide - which is a toxic, greenhouse gas that mixes with water to make acid rain;

Carbon Monoxide - which is a toxic, flammable gas, responsible for deaths where gas equipment may become faulty.

And, water;

What is interesting about these compounds, Mann notes, is that they are all colourless. So when the compounds appear as clouds there has been no reason for alarm.

Mann states, that through independent studies in Europe, Britain and the U.S. After planes leave chemtrails (combination of chemical and trail), foreign substances appear in our atmosphere with alarming concentration levels. These substances include but are not limited too:

-- Barium
-- Potassium
-- Calcium
-- Aluminium
-- Bacteria
-- Pathogens

Mann than outlines another chemtrail activist in his article. A computer consultant named Clifford Carnicom who previously worked as a research scientist for the U.S. Department of Defense, the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service. With such an impressive resume and his credentials enhanced further by his skills and knowledge of advanced math and hard sciences, it is likely Carnicom would be considered an expert, as Mann explains, he is the foremost investigator of the chemtrail phenomenon.

Carnicom wrote a letter to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency detailing his findings. The EPA wrote back to him stating:

EPA is not involved or aware of any application or aerial spraying of chemical, biological or toxic substances as claimed by your past correspondence or on the above or other websites.

Carnicom also wrote to the U.S. Air force who responded with:

The term “chemtrail” is a hoax that began circulating approximately three years ago which asserts that the government is involved in a joint federal program of covert spraying of the public.

The “chemtrails” are most often described as “unusual contrails or contrail patterns” seen coming from military or civilian aircraft. The “chemtrail” hoax has been investigated and refuted by many established and accredited universities, scientific organizations and major media publications.

Mann begins to summarize his article by pointing out the significant damage chemtrails cause to our climate; as well as pointing out the necessity of dealing with this issue. This is opposed to the current method of handling these situations, crises and environmental issues which are brought forward by other environmentalists and activists; where the public generally sits in awe, dumbfounded by documentaries about Global Warming, after which they leave the theatre, get into their SUV's and drive home.

I wrote Shawn Mann after reading the article, thanking him for his hard work and dedication in trying to help raise awareness, and give me answers to a question I had long since forgot I had ever asked.

I'm not sure what character traits it is about an activist that makes them stand alone in a crowd. Whether it is the laggardness of their efforts and claims, their strength to keep fighting for what they believe in, or their refusal to accept insufficient answers to their inquisitions.

Whatever it is, one thing is remains clear; it is important that these advocates for truth never stop raising awareness of the issues which remain unacknowledged. And we must begin to ask for answers to those same questions we once had as we lay curious in beds of grass.
