So no more releasing CO2 or CH4 (chemicals) into the atmosphere then?

I feel SO sorry for the few sane rational people in Florida some times.

The same people who think humans can't alter the climate also claim that the government is controlling the weather.

The airlines should immediately halt service to the entire state if this goes in to effect. Why waste the time and money defending yourself against these conspiracies.

Prohibit "weather modification".

So are they banning Sharpies?

And again I'm grateful that I'm not from the US. I know dumb people are everywhere but you clearly have loudest.

So, a plane that dumps water onto a fire is dispersing a chemical (water) with the express purpose of controlling the temperature. So firefighting planes would be illegal under this bill.

"Fun" fact, "chemtrails" were used in the Soviet Union in 86' right after the Chernobyl disaster to stop a radioactive cloud going to Moscow. They dumped a shitload of dry ice to make it rain. It rained over small villages which caused people there to get radiation sickness.

I feel sorry for all the entrepreneurs and employees in the chemtrail industry.

Imagine that you're flying a chemtrailer and then a wild $10000 fee appears out of nowhere, and there's a shark. Are you going to choose the shark? Nobody would. I guess a fine of $1000 is just the cost of doing chemtrail business now.

Does this affect Jewish space lasers at all? Asking for a friend

And here am I remebering the last hurricane devastating Florida, thinking: "You probably need some weather manipulation more then others..."

The bill was filed on November 20 by Garcia, a Republican

Was anyone really unsure of her party affiliation by this point in the article?

So shut down all coal and gas power plants.

wow I didn't expect this to pass before the anti-Sasquatch legislation did but here we are

People can't afford home insurance, seniors are being driven from their condos but let's focus on a law addressing conspiracy theories. Next up, a law protecting big foot.

Nothing else to do at work but this. Must be nice.

Does this prohibit people from shooting at the clouds to scare them away?

The "Weather Modification Activities" bill sets out that "the injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of a chemical, a chemical compound, a substance, or an apparatus into the atmosphere within the borders of this state for the express purpose of affecting the temperature, the weather, or the intensity of sunlight is prohibited."

So, taking it at the closely-adjacent letter like how Repub trash interprets everything, all industry in the entire state must cease, including power generation.

wat.

Wait till the Samsquantch hears about this

I mean, that's fine. No one is doing that anyway, so it won't affect anything. It's like banning post-birth abortion.

Hope it passes so everyone flying a jet plane over Florida that leaves a contrail or agricultural spraying has to go to court to get the fine dismissed.
