For a long time, there have been wild ideas about the U.S. government supposedly using airplanes to spray dangerous chemicals over American homes, or powerful elites controlling the weather. Those were mostly kept to the edges of public conversation, but we’re now dealing with it in lawmakers’ offices, like Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Republican lawmakers around the country are busy proposing, passing, and signing laws to ban what they call “weather modification” and environmental geoengineering. These efforts often tie back to the long-standing “chemtrails” theory, which claims that airplanes are secretly spraying chemicals on people without their knowledge.
