Writing on X, the Republican politician said she was creating legislation that would make “the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity” a felony.

“I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity,” she wrote. “It will be a felony offense.”

She added: “We must end the dangerous and deadly practice of weather modification and geoengineering.”

    It’s because MAGA is spreading conspiracies that geoengineering is to blame for the Texas flood.

      This is sadly the correct answer. Performative legislation for Alex Jones droolers.

      The real thing it actually does ‘ban’ in practice, is where after having done absolutely nothing about CO2 emissions, we would turn the sky white forever to keep the temperature from going to +3.5°C to +10°C so that it’s still possible to grow some crops outdoors somewhere and everybody doesn’t die. That’s still a couple of decades in the future; China and Australia will probably agree to do it and whatever’s left of the US by then will have no say in the matter.
