Abstract

Herein we propose a method to mimic natural processes for the creation of precipitation, in a safe, economically feasible manner anywhere in the world. We propose this is accomplishable via changing the target of the well established field of aerosol dispersal for large scale climate cooling from long term cooling to short term, locally targeted dispersal. We show that such methods could induce precipitation anywhere with sufficient humidity and other conditions, and could be accomplishable at low cost with low or no safety concerns.
