The White has announced support of solar radiation modification (SRM), a Bill Gates-style geoengineering that seeks to dim the sun in order to combat “climate change.”
Earlier this year, reports revealed Gates supported the geoengineering technology to spread particles in the atmosphere to block sunlight from reaching the Earth.
Meanwhile, billionaire leftists George Soros also lent his support to the solar geoengineering projects to dim the sun and deflect more sunlight from the Earth, Fortune reported.
Now the Biden White House voiced support for the technology, saying, “SRM offers the possibility of cooling the planet significantly on a timescale of a few years.”
“Such cooling would tend to reverse many of the negative consequences of climate change, albeit with ramifications which are now poorly understood,” the White House report said.
“Interest in SRM is heightened as greenhouse gases continue to accumulate in the atmosphere and as science tells us more about the risks associated with exceeding global temperature targets,” the report said.
The report continued:
“The potential risks and benefits to human health and well-being associated with scenarios involving the use of SRM need to be considered relative to the risks and benefits associated with plausible trajectories of ongoing climate change not involving SRM.”
“This ‘risk vs. risk’ framing, along with cultural, moral, and ethical considerations, would contribute to the necessary context in which policymakers can consider the potential suitability of SRM as a component of climate policy,” the report added.
In a statement, the White House said, “There are no plans underway to establish a comprehensive research program focused on solar radiation modification,” according to Politico.
But at least one proponent of the push to dim the sun said the White House report is “progress.”
“The fact that this report even exists is probably the most consequential component of this release,” Shuchi Talati, the executive director of the Alliance for Just Deliberation on Solar Geoengineering, said.
“This report also signals that the U.S. government is supportive of well-governed research, including outdoor experimentation, which I think is quite significant,” the report said.
As The Daily Fetched reported earlier this year, a top Nigerian scientist has lashed out against Bill Gates and George Soros for using Africa as a petri dish for their dangerous climate experiments.
“As a climate expert, I consider these environmental manipulation techniques extremely risky. And as an African climate expert, I strongly object to the idea that Africa should be turned into a testing ground for their use,” he wrote in an Op-Ed in The New York Times.
Okereke called solar radiation management “highly speculative. Without using the whole Earth as a laboratory, it’s impossible to know whether it would dim anything, let alone how it would affect ecosystems, people, and the global climate.”
“Other proposed techniques include covering deserts with plastic; genetically engineering plants to have brighter, more reflective leaves; creating or making clouds whiter; and deploying millions of mirrors in space,” he wrote.
Okereke also warned that ideas on paper often disregard the impact on people, adding that “the technologies run the danger of upsetting local and regional weather patterns — intensifying drought or flooding, for example, or disrupting monsoon cycles. And the long-term impact on regional climate and seasons is still largely unknown.”
“Millions, perhaps billions, of people’s livelihoods could be undermined,” he said.
“Trying out solar geoengineering on somebody else’s turf, as was done in a failed experiment in Mexico, “echoed some of the worst aspects of colonialism,” he wrote, alluding to the climate project by Bill Gates and George Soros.
“African nations should strongly resist letting their territories be used for experimental exercises like this. The technologies are potentially dangerous and a major distraction from the real change that we all know wealthier nations need to make if we have a hope of outrunning climate devastation,” he continued.
