geoengineering should and can be used in 2016 to combat global warming

Clarification: Basically if your backing this method up your backing up the funding and usage of this method Observation: I am not saying we should never use this method. (I personally believe we should never attempt this method but that is not what I am arguing in todays round) I am simply arguing we shouldn't use this at all on a considerable scale in 2016. Intro: Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering is a primary term for the ongoing global climate modification programs being conducted by major powers around the world. "Aerosols" is simply a term for a microscopic particle that is suspended in the air. A primary stated goal of the geoengineering programs is to provide a "solar shield" to slow "runaway climate change" by spraying tens of millions of tons of highly toxic metal nano particulates (a nanometer is 1/1,000,000,000 of a meter) into the atmosphere from jet aircraft. Is the spraying only for solar radiation management? Based on available data, there are a number of known objectives including but not limited to SRM, weather warfare, over the horizon radar enhancement, controlling food production, and probable biological testing. There are likely many more aspects and agendas related to the atmospheric spraying which we can not yet know. http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org... I didn't understand this much either when I first found out about it. If you look up this method itself there's a diagram that makes it simple enough to comprehend. A plane fly's over a certain location and releases these particles into the atmosphere basically. First you must look to the biggest problem passing this and the main reason we must have as much knowledge on this method as possible. 1.Once we start this method we can"t stop " once the world starts geoengineering, we can't really ever stop " especially if everyone keeps pumping carbon-dioxide into the atmosphere at the same time. Why? Because as soon as we quit spraying those reflective particles into the atmosphere, the Earth will heat up very, very, very rapidly. And sudden climate change is even worse than the kind we already know about. https://www.washingtonpost.com... SO in conclusion this method isn't ready and will not be on a city scale in 2016. Why we would want to stop this method? Because of the many proposed side effects that could happen which I will start to present in contention 2. 2.Stratospheric Aerosols could have negative effects on agriculture "Academic proponents admit at conferences that such efforts to reduce the earth's sunlight levels may reduce agricultural yields for billions of people by negatively altering global weather patterns. www.change.org In addition to having a deleterious effect on water & soil quality (and human breathing), this effort could create dependency on "stress-tolerant" seeds and effectively monopolize the global food market. www.change.org 3.We must also look at the main side effects of this method "Fighting global warming by reflecting sunlight back into space risks "terrifying" consequences including droughts and conflicts, according to three major new analyses of the promise and perils of geoengineering. "Billions of people would suffer worse floods "Ocean upwelling, or the bringing up of deep cold waters, would cool surface water temperatures and reduce sea ice melting, but would unbalance the global heat budget, while adding iron filings or lime would affect the oxygen levels in the oceans. http://www.theguardian.com...... this was also presented on an article on the new scientist 4. Negative effects from actually testing this method Many geoengineering patents have a stated goal of slowing global warming. This area of the Pacific Northwest was thought to be a pristine water source. Dozens of rain samples taken in this region from numerous individuals were tested at the State certified lab in Northern California and showed shocking results without exception. Former US Forest Service Biologist Francis Mangles has confirmed the alarming heavy metal contamination with his own testing. Snow tests taken from the side of Mt. Shasta showed aluminum content as high as 61,000 PPB. (parts per billion). This level of aluminum in the snow is tens of thousands of times anything that might be considered "normal background" contamination. Aluminum is the primary element named in numerous geoengineering patents. The same patents that describe dispersing this aluminum from jets for the expressed purpose of blocking the sun which is exactly what we see aircraft "trails" doing in our skies day in and day out, creating artificial cloud cover and haze which blocks direct sunlight. http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org... More negative outcomes from testing: Ozone layer damage is yet another known consequence of geoengineering the atmosphere. Other recent studies now note a "shrinking atmosphere" which is very possibly also linked to the ongoing geoengineering programs. http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org... The "hydrological cycle" of the planet is being completely disrupted by the geoengineering aerosol saturation of the atmosphere. Fungal proliferation is yet another inevitable crisis when the atmosphere is filled with particulates, soils are contaminated with the geoengineering fallout, and waters are polluted with the same It is important to remember this contamination is not local, but global in scope. Movements have formed in countries all over the world which are desperately trying to address this dire issue. 5.This will not even be ready by 2016 "The main thing keeping this method from going is politics "Also the issue with if other countries want to use the method as well. IF something goes wrong could affect other cities nearby or the general climate. 6. We don"t even know for sure the cause of global warming. "There is no for sure cause of the changes of temperature across the globe. Some think it"s simply the sun in fact studies show that a big heat jump like this happened around the time of the Vikings. Simply every once in the way the sun"s rays go a bit further than normal resulting in more heat on the atmosphere. This could be a passive thing. "Pollution does have some effect on the environment but whether its directly the cause of temperature change is unproven. "WE do not know for sure if this "death warming" is even inevitable there"s just not enough evidence or urgency to justify wasting money when we are trillions of dollars in debt on a global project that could have negative effects. I will now provide a response to the general push towards geoengineering simply because I have characters left and simply because this website presents it greatly Science academies around the world as well as some climate activists have called for more research into geoengineering techniques, such as reflecting sunlight from space, adding vast quantities of lime or iron filings to the oceans, pumping deep cold nutrient-rich waters to the surface of oceans and irrigating vast areas of the north African and Australian deserts to grow millions of trees. Each method has been shown to potentially reduce temperature on a planetary scale. Response presented by http://www.theguardian.com...... But researchers at the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Germany, modeled these five potential methods and concluded that geoengineering could add chaos to complex and not fully understood weather systems. Even when applied on a massive scale, the most that could be expected, they say, is a temperature drop of about 8%. We don"t really have to technology to regulate temperature at a global scale.
