GLOBAL ENGINEERING GOVERNANCE

In 2009, the UK House of Commons & the U.S. House Science & Technology Committee Agreed to Collaborate and Coordinate Hearings on Geoengineering and Global Geoengineering Governance.

There are no current rules or regulations on Geoengineering or Climate Remediation schemes which are proposed, underway or ongoing. Several countries, private individuals, corporations, universities, NASA, the U.S. military and others are conducting atmosphere tests and other experiments and/or Geoengineering experiments. The Earth and the Earths atmosphere are being used today without public consent, or knowledge in many cases, as an Experimental Physics Laboratory.

GEOENGINEERING & CLIMATE REMEDIATION UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

The U.S. House Science & Technology Committee has held three hearings (2009-2010), on Geoengineering. Scientists from other

fields and government agencies, like Agriculture, EPA, NMFS, marine biologists, FDA, other U.S. Agencies, marine biologists, forestry, and members of the public, were not invited to attend any of these hearings and were prevented from testifying on the risks

from the myriad of ongoing and proposed Geoengineering Schemes.

Only those promoting or supporting various Geoengineering Experiments, for the most part, were allowed to speak. WHY?

Discovery Channel Program Can We Control the Weather?

MIT Professor Emanuel suggests having a fleet of jets lay out highly toxic carbon black dust contrails to create artificial weather systems to control or steer hurricanes.

Discovery Channel 2007

It is alleged that these weather system experiments are underway as black contrail sightings have been documented across the United States.

This type of Black Trail is being seen across the United States. Could this be what Professor Emanuel was Referring to on the Discovery Channel?

How Aircraft Emissions Contribute to Global Warming
The analysis, by atmospheric scientists at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California, also shows that in the Arctic, aircraft vapour trails produced 1520% of warmingFor the latest study, Jacobson and his team developed a model for aircraft emissions that accounts for atmospheric composition, cloudiness and the physical properties of emissions, particularly of black carbon a major part of soot. If black-carbon emissions from aircraft could be reduced 20-fold, warming would be halted and a slight cooling would occur from plane-created vapour trails Mark Jacobson Stanford Engineer Nature News December 21, 2009 Book: Aviation & the Global Atmosphere IPCC 2001
Davis, CA Photograph in 2008 Shows Jet Produced Man-Made Clouds

NASA studies show that increasingly persistent jet contrails may turn into man-made clouds that are trapping warmth in the atmosphere and exacerbating global warming

NASA goes on to state that any change in global cloud cover may contribute to long-term changes in Earths climate. Contrails, especially persistent contrails, represent a human-caused increase in the Earths cloudiness, and are likely to be affecting climate and ultimately our natural resources (2005 NASA Newsletter Minnis Studies)

NewsWithViews.com Our Dead & Dying Trees Article by Rosalind Peterson July 22, 2007
In the interview for this article Mr. Buckmann spoke about tree declines in Northern California: In the past I have seen localized die-off of plant communities from a myriad of sources, and there tends to be a trend toward one to several problems at a time, and it varies year to year. But I have never seen the present condition of wide spread decline in almost all species, in all areas, from a wide assortment of insects, fungus, molds, mildews, bacteria and viruses. I have seen areas where every tree and shrub in a drainage area has some form of health problem (Since this article was written tree deaths and decline has continued to escalate in the United States.)

THE DYING OF THE TREES Allan Buckmann on Many government agencies are hiding the fact Tree Deaths & Decline that an enormous number of trees across the United States are declining health or have died. I think we are in for bigin changes, Many of these agencies are refusing to and I think we should be on this or take soil and tree ring samples like investigate a duck on a June bug. to find the cause of this decline.
I think this is as serious as it gets, and we need to act quickly to this Decline have What impact does document the facts and take oncorrective our Weather and on the intensity of Forest Fires? actions What is triggering such a broad decline and die-off response to entire suites of plant and tree communities across the United States?

THE DYING OF THE TREES

Many government agencies are hiding the fact that an enormous number of trees across the United States are in declining health or have died. Many of these agencies are refusing to investigate or take soil and tree ring samples to find the cause of this decline. And they are not considering the impacts of past and ongoing Geoengineering experiments which limits their research. Geoengineering Programs, weather modification experiments, atmospheric chemical releases, jet and rocket fuels emissions, and other atmospheric experiments are having enormous impact on our trees and plants.
Recommended book: The Dying of the Trees By Charles Little (1995)

Many Trees in California, like these dying Oaks, are not Infected With Sudden Oak Death Syndrome Ukiah, CA 2008

Drought & Pests are Named as Major Causes in Tree Decline even when the trees are in Riparian Areas or Watered Areas Pests Only Attack Trees Which are Stressed. The symptoms are the same.

Ultra Violet & Infrared Radiation Increasingly higher UV & Infrared Radiation levels are being recorded across the United States. How do these higher levels impact tree health, crop production, and human health? Could the depletion of our beneficial atmospheric ozone layer by jet fuel emissions, containing nitric oxide, be one of the major culprits?

Lightning Experiments are Being Conducted by the U.S. Air Force Discovery Channel 2007 And by a myriad of universities, government agencies (funding source), private individuals, corporations, and the U.S. Military.

Chemicals are being released into our atmosphere that are highly toxic and flammable. When they contaminate our air and soil these chemicals may cause Mega Fires, that quickly consume entire forest areas.

California State Department of Health Drinking Water Tests reveal unusually high, abnormal spikes in Aluminum & Barium in Drinking Water Supplies. Spikes appear to correlate with NASA's Atmospheric Heating & Testing Programs which use Toxic Chemicals To Create Chemical Reactions.

Aluminum Barium Iron Manganese Magnesium Sodium Boron Arsenic Strontium Uranium Strontium-90 Antimony Beryllium Bromine Cadmium Calcium Copper Lead Nickel Silver Thallium Titanium Vanadium Zinc Sulfide Sulfate ================================================== SulfurHexafluoride (SF6), Phosphorus, Lithium, Rubidium, Silicon, Silica, Tin, Tritium, Tungsten, and Yttrium are rarely tested for in California Drinking Water Supplies and should be added to the list by the EPA of chemicals tested by the State of California due to health effects associated with exposure.

Many of these same contaminants are showing up in California State Air Resources air testing results throughout many parts of California.

Nature 2007 Program on Honey Bee Decline and disappearance: The role honeybees play in our diet goes beyond honey production. These seemingly tireless creatures pollinate about one-third of crop species in the U.S. Honeybees pollinate about 100 flowering food crops including apples, nutsavocados, soybeans, asparagussquash citrus fruit, peaches cherriescranberries, strawberries, cantaloupe as well as animal-feed crops, such as the clover that's fed to dairy Cows. Almost all flowering trees and plants need pollinators to produce crops. A daunting question is: If honeybee colonies were so severely affected by CCD that pollination stopped, could we lose these crops from our markets and our diets forever?...

Honey Bees , Birds, Butterflies, Lady Birds, Hummingbirds, Bumblebees, and wide variety of other pollinators are the heroes which bring us most of our foods and flowers...

It is time to keep protect and keep these heroes buzzing.

In the past few years there has been sharp declines in almost all of our pollinators for unknown reasons. This phenomena has been labeled, with regard to Honey Bees, as CCD or Colony Collapse Disorder. Research is underway to determine why these losses continue to increase unabated here in the United States and around the world.

You can take action today to help protect our pollinators!

Honey Bee & Other Pollinator Declines Neonicotinoids should also be Added to the list of Insecticides that the EPA should ban.

Insecticides are just one class of chemicals that may harm Honey Bee and other Pollinators.

How do you like your skies and your weather Natural or Man-Made?

Do you want to be sprayed with chemicals from these experimental programs just like you were a bug?

Protect your children, your family and your health!

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Between 1970 and 1885, was highly successful and instrumental in putting into force many mandatory regulations to reduce air, water, soil pollution, and to improve human health.

Now we must work to protect the Clean Water & Air Acts. We must engage the EPA in the Geoengineering issue to take action to protect our air, water and soils from the atmospheric contaminants being released in current and future Geoengineering programs and experiments. The EPA works for us

Within the federal government, the Air Force is the single largest user of Energy in the U.S., and some 80 percent of that energy is used in aviation fuel for aircraft, about 3 billion gallons a year. (U.S. Air Force 2009)

EPA WARNING! Fluorescent & Other Energy Efficient Light Bulbs Can Break or Start Fires. Special recycling is required due to the fact they contain Mercury & Mercury Vaporspecial HAZMAT clean-up required if broken! Older Fluorescent Light Bulbs in Schools, Businesses & Homes may be leaking PCBs from the BallastsInvestigate and Replace older Ballasts. Protect your children & your family. Some older light bulb sockets should not be used when installing energy efficient light bulbs. All broken or burned-out energy efficient light bulbs must be taken to a hazmat site for recycling in Califormia and other states. This is the law in California.

From space the Masters of Infinity would have the power to control the earth's weather to cause drought and flood, to change the tides and raise the level of the sea, to divert the Gulf Stream and change the climate to frigid.... This is the ultimate position of total control over the earth that lies somewhere in outer space."

Jet Trails & Man-Made Clouds Bursts Produced by Jets

In order to place sulfur or aluminum oxide particles into the atmosphere, water vapor is required to be emitted by jets or rockets. Jet contrails may turn into Man-Made clouds and haze, according to NASA, also making it easy to inject salt particles into them for cloud whitening purposes to reflect more direct sunlight back into space. (All these particles return to Earth creating air, water, and soil pollution.
