Childhood
Questions and Revelations: Chemtrails and Global Warming

I
remember having a happy childhood, I had a loving family
and I loved to play. I can recall in those early years
laying on the grass and looking up at the sky, watching
cloud formations and trying to come up with objects,
cartoon characters or animals which resembled the white
fluffy pillows that lay on the blue sheets of azure.
During
that time as I lay in my bed of grass and gazed in
wonder and imagination at the clouds which floated
across the sky; I can recall the airplanes which
would zip through the blue blanket leaving a trail of
clouds of their own.
At
first, this was somewhat puzzling as to how a motorized
vehicle could create the same or similar haze as nature.
But without ever having received an explanation as to
what the trails were, I shrugged it off and let the
years roll by.
Now if
we may fast forward to the present, I recently came
across an independent report from an environmental
activist Shawn Mann entitled “Illegal Aerosol
Spraying Operations and Chem trail Phenomenon“.
After reading this report, the question I pondered on
such a summer's day during my younger years resurfaced
in my mind. What is that cloudy trail that is left in
the sky after jets fly by? Only this time, I want an
explanation.

Mann
goes on to explain, that when the temperature begins to
drop as our seasons change we can begin to see our own
breath as the small droplets of water vapor make their
way into the air by way of condensation. The process
which happens 30, 000 feet into the air is very similar.
Water droplets condense out of the plain and form a
condensation trail; or in short, contrail.
As we
exhale during cooler seasons and we see the misty clouds
of breath, they never last long before dissipating.
However, the similar process which is practiced high
above our heads varies from one jet liner to the next.
Amy
Foy, a researcher at Lancaster University (UK) went so
far as to classify the several types of contrails left
by aircrafts:
'Persistent and Dispersed - Meaning they hang around
and spread out’
“Persistent and Non Dispersed - Meaning they hang
around, but don't spread out;
Non Persistent and Dispersed - Meaning they don't
hang around, but spread out;
“Non Persistent and Non Dispersed - Meaning they
don't hang around, or spread out.
Aircrafts are generally powered by Kerosene. Kerosene is
classified as a “Hydrocarbon” which mainly contains
nitrogen and sulphur. And when it burns the main
compounds that form are:
Carbon Dioxide - which is a famous greenhouse gas
that we all breathe out;
Sulphur Dioxide - which is a toxic, greenhouse
gas that mixes with water to make acid rain;
Carbon Monoxide - which is a toxic, flammable
gas, responsible for deaths where gas equipment may
become faulty.
And, water;
What
is interesting about these compounds, Mann notes, is
that they are all colorless. So when the compounds
appear as clouds there has been no reason for alarm.
Mann
states, that through independent studies in Europe,
Britain and the U.S. After planes leave chemtrails
(combination of chemical and trail), foreign substances
appear in our atmosphere with alarming concentration
levels. These substances include but are not limited
too:
Barium, Potassium, Calcium, Aluminum, Bacteria,
Pathogens
Mann
than outlines another chemtrail activist in his article.
A computer consultant named Clifford Carnicom who
previously worked as a research scientist for the U.S.
Department of Defense, the Bureau of Land Management and
the U.S. Forest Service. With such an impressive
resume and his credentials enhanced further by his
skills and knowledge of advanced math and hard sciences,
it is likely Carnicom would be considered an expert, as
Mann explains, he is the foremost investigator of the
chemtrail phenomenon.
Carnicom wrote a letter to the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency detailing his findings. The EPA wrote
back to him stating:
EPA is
not involved or aware of any application or aerial
spraying of chemical, biological or toxic substances as
claimed by your past correspondence or on the above or
other websites.
Carnicom also wrote to the U.S. Air force who responded
with:
The term “chemtrail” is a hoax that began circulating
approximately three years ago which asserts that the
government is involved in a joint federal program of
covert spraying of the public.
The “chemtrails” are most often described as “unusual
contrails or contrail patterns” seen coming from
military or civilian aircraft. The “chemtrail” hoax has
been investigated and refuted by many established and
accredited universities, scientific organizations and
major media publications.
Mann
begins to summarize his article by pointing out the
significant damage chemtrails cause to our climate; as
well as pointing out the necessity of dealing with this
issue. This is opposed to the current method of handling
these situations, crises and environmental issues which
are brought forward by other environmentalists and
activists; where the public generally sits in awe,
dumbfounded by documentaries about Global Warming, after
which they leave the theatre, get into their SUV's and
drive home.
I
wrote Shawn Mann after reading the article, thanking him
for his hard work and dedication in trying to help raise
awareness, and give me answers to a question I had
long since forgot I had ever asked.
I'm
not sure what character traits it is about an
activist that makes them stand alone in a crowd.
Whether it is the laggardness of their efforts and
claims, their strength to keep fighting for what they
believe in, or their refusal to accept insufficient
answers to their inquisitions.
Whatever it is, one thing is remains clear; it is
important that these advocates for truth never stop
raising awareness of the issues which remain
unacknowledged. And we must begin to ask for answers to
those same questions we once had as we lay curious in
beds of grass.
