Aye, but there's nothing that can be done to stop it (unless you have a few RPGs stashed away somewhere?) so best to see what you can do to mitigate the effects of whatever chemicals are being sprayed instead of worrying about why it's being done.

But...

Quote:Strontium is a chemical element with symbol Sr and atomic number 38. An alkaline earth metal, strontium is a soft silver-white or yellowish metallic element that is highly reactive chemically. The metal turns yellow when exposed to air. It occurs naturally in the minerals celestine and strontianite. While natural strontium is stable, the synthetic 90 Sr isotope is present in radioactive fallout and has a half-life of 28.90 years.
Both strontium and strontianite are named after Strontian, a village in Scotland near which the mineral was first discovered in 1790 by Adair Crawford and William Cruickshank. The production of sugar from sugar beet was in the 19th century the largest application. Strontium compounds are today mostly used for the production of cathode ray tubes. The displacement of cathode ray tubes by other display methods in television sets is changing the overall consumption.


Strontium is a grey, silvery metal that is softer than calcium and even more reactive in water, with which it reacts on contact to produce strontium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. It burns in air to produce both strontium oxide and strontium nitride, but since it does not react with nitrogen below 380 °C, at room temperature it will only form the oxide spontaneously.[2]
Because of its extreme reactivity with oxygen and water, this element occurs naturally only in compounds with other elements, such as in the minerals strontianite and celestite. It is kept under a liquid hydrocarbon such as mineral oil or kerosene to prevent oxidation; freshly exposed strontium metal rapidly turns a yellowish color with the formation of the oxide. Finely powdered strontium metal is pyrophoric meaning it will ignite spontaneously in air at room temperature. Volatile strontium salts impart a bright red color to flames, and these salts are used in pyrotechnics and in the production of flares. Natural strontium is a mixture of four stable isotopes.

Evidently it isn't something you'd want to be breathing in. Or covered in for that matter.

Quote:Sulfur hexafluoride was the tracer gas used in the first roadway air dispersion model calibration; this research program was sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and conducted in Sunnyvale, California on U.S. Highway 101.[8] Gaseous SF6 is used as a tracer gas in short-term experiments of ventilation efficiency in buildings and indoor enclosures, and for determining infiltration rates. Two major factors recommend its use: its concentration can be measured with satisfactory accuracy at very low concentrations, and the Earth's atmosphere has a negligible concentration of SF6.
Sulfur hexafluoride was used as a non-toxic test gas in an experiment at St John's Wood tube station in London, United Kingdom on 25 March 2007.[9] The gas was released throughout the station, and monitored as it drifted around. The purpose of the experiment, which had been announced earlier in March by the Secretary of State for Transport Douglas Alexander, was to investigate how toxic gas might spread throughout London Underground stations and buildings during a terrorist attack.
It has been used successfully as a tracer in oceanography to study diapycnal mixing and air-sea gas exchange.

Quote:According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, SF6 is the most potent greenhouse gas that it has evaluated, with a global warming potential of 22,800[12] times that of CO2 when compared over a 100-year period. Measurements of SF6 show that its global average mixing ratio has increased by about 0.2 ppt per year to over 7 ppt.[13] Sulfur hexafluoride is also extremely long-lived, is inert in the troposphere and stratosphere and has an estimated atmospheric lifetime of 800–3200 years.[14] SF6 is very stable (for countries reporting their emissions to the UNFCCC, a GWP of 23,900 for SF6 was suggested at the third Conference of the Parties: GWP used in Kyoto protocol).[15] Average global SF6 concentrations increased by about seven percent per year during the 1980s and 1990s, mostly as the result of its use in the magnesium production industry, and by electrical utilities and electronics manufacturers. Given the low amounts of SF6 released compared to carbon dioxide, its overall contribution to global warming is estimated to be less than 0.2 percent. [16]
In Europe, SF6 falls under the F-Gas directive which ban or control its usage for several applications. Since 1 January 2006, SF6 is banned as a tracer gas and in all applications except high-voltage switchgear.[17]

Quote:Physiological effects and precautions

As with all gases, the density of SF6 affects the resonance frequencies of the vocal tract, thus changing drastically the vocal sound qualities, or timbre, of those who inhale it. On the other hand, it does not affect the vibrations of the vocal folds. The density of sulfur hexafluoride is relatively high at room temperature and pressure due to the gas's large molar mass. Unlike helium, which has a molar mass of about 4 grams/mol and gives the voice a childish and "Donald Duck" quality, SF6 has a molar mass of about 146 g/mol, and the velocity of sound through the gas is 0.44 times the speed of sound in air due to the large inertia of a SF6 molecule. For comparison, the molar mass of air, which is about 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen, is approximately 30 g/mol. Inhalation of SF6 causes a lowering of the timbre, or frequency of the formants, of the vocal tract, by contrast with inhalation of helium, which raises it.[18]
Like helium, sulfur hexafluoride is a non-toxic gas, yet by displacing oxygen in the lungs, it also carries the risk of asphyxia.

so it's a greenhouse gas, used in medical applications. Can't be that bad for you, right?

Quote:The term chemtrail is a portmanteau of the words "chemical" and "trail," just as contrail is a contraction of "condensation trail." The term does not refer to other forms of aerial spraying such as agricultural spraying ('crop dusting'), cloud seeding, skywriting, or aerial firefighting.[6] The term specifically refers to aerial trails allegedly caused by the systematic high-altitude release of chemical substances not found in ordinary contrails, resulting in the appearance of characteristic sky tracks. Supporters of this conspiracy theory speculate that the purpose of the chemical release may be for solar radiation management, population control,[1] weather control,[2] or biological warfare/chemical warfare and that these trails are causing respiratory illnesses and other health problems.[7][8]

Cloud seeding, weather modification etc etc, all one and the same.

The Chinese blamed that mahoosive snow storm they had the other year on their own cloud seeding extravaganza. Sounds like they got a bit carried away

Been brushing up on my atmospheric chemistry before posting (prof Thomson would so be pleased, only got 8% in the exam )

** warning. the following may contain chemistry, take all necessary precautions **

"During flight aircraft emit a number of pollutants which have varying effects on the environment, the main ones being:

Carbon Dioxide

Nitrogen Oxides

Sulphate and soot aerosols

Water vapour

Concerning the formation of contrails the main pollutants are water vapour and aerosol particles (soot, nitric acid and hydrocarbons).

Aircraft contrails form in the upper troposphere, where temperatures are cold, therefore contrails consist of ice particles, in which respect they are similar to cirrus clouds. Generally, for a contrail to form, there must be water vapour present and aerosol particles, such as soot, for the water vapour to condense on, and the ambient atmospheric conditions must also be suitable. The relative humidity (RH) of the surrounding air must be high enough (supersaturated) or the water vapour emitted by the aircraft will increase the saturation to the point where condensation occurs. If the ambient air is already at super saturation then it is likely that other clouds will also be present, if however super saturation is reached by the input of water vapour from the aircraft then it is likely that only contrail related cloud will be present. It is under these conditions that there is most concern over the occurrence of contrails as it produces a situation where clouds are formed anthropogenically in a sky that would otherwise have been cloud free." ~ my notes circa 2004.

Mostly seen in the UK over a diagonal from Liverpool- Birminghamabad to Londonistan.

So, even before they put things in the contrail- turning it into a chemtrail, you high more high altitude clouds forming, which means more lower clouds forming and therefore rain- weather modification.

Like when the stopped planes flying after 11/9/01 - the global temperature during the day was 1 degree C colder, and the night was 1 degree C warmer.

As for the Stronium, we're talking parts per million in these trails, even at ground level- we inhale more platinum walking beside a busy road. Yes, it's used in cloud seeding as is Silver Nitrate (now that's a nasty bugger).

If they were putting anything drug-like in the trails, it would just break up from the high temperature. UV up there- and if they did it a low altitude, would need a metric feckton (an irish scientific measurement) of it to have any effect- may as well put it in the drinking water, to get a bigger bang for less stuff.

Oh, you want to try breathing SF6 sometime, does the inverse of helium , makes your voice deeper- http://youtu.be/d-XbjFn3aqE
