North American Weather Modification Council SAYS:
Clouds can be seeded with a number of different types of agents: silver iodide, liquid propane, dry ice (solid carbon dioxide), and various salt compounds."

WHAT WE SHOULD KNOW IS HOW SAFE ARE ANY OF THESE AGENTS TO CHILDREN, PREGNANT WOMEN, WEAK AND FEEBLE AND ENVIRONMENT IN GENERAL.

CLOUD SEEDING IS AN OLD TECHNIQUE USED SINCE 1946 AND INTRODUCED TO SCIENCE BY Vincent J. Schaefer and Irving Langmuir EXPERIMENT.

" “cloud seeding” began during a flight that began in upstate New York on 13 November 1946. Schaefer was able to cause snow to fall near Mount Greylock in western Massachusetts, after he dumped six pounds of dry ice into the target cloud from a plane after a 60-mile easterly chase from the Schenectady County Airport.

IT WAS ALSO USED IN VIETNAM WAR IN OPERATION POPEYE_ https://www.popsci.com/operation-popeye-government-weather-vietnam-war/

AT LEAST 50 COUNTRIES ARE USING CLOUD SEEDING TECHNIQUES OVER THEIR COUNTRIES TO ALTER THE WEATHER BUT DR. VANDANA RAI IS WARNING US ABOUT ILL EFFECTS OF SILVER IODINE, A COMPOUND THAT IS NOWADAYS MOSTLY USED IN CLOUD SEEDING. SHE EXPLAINS THIS IN DETAIL:


"Silver iodide is a chemical compound composed of silver and iodine. This article takes a closer look at the dangers of silver iodide toxicity.

What is The Treatment for Silver Iodide Toxicity?

Introduction:

Silver iodide is a chemical compound composed of silver and iodine that has been used in industry for many years. It has been used as an agricultural pesticide and in cloud seeding (a process that involves releasing silver iodide into clouds to create rain). It is also used in photography and as a disinfectant. Unfortunately, the use of silver iodide has been linked to numerous health risks, including toxicity, reproductive disorders, developmental defects, and cancer. Symptoms of silver iodide toxicity include coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. Silver iodide is extremely toxic and can cause severe burns if it comes into contact with the skin. Inhaling silver iodide can also be fatal.
What Is Silver Iodide Toxicity?

Silver iodide (AgI) is a yellowish-white powder used in photography, as a pigment, and in manufacturing certain types of glass. It can also be found in some air pollution control devices. Silver iodide is slightly soluble in water and is more toxic than silver.

When silver iodide enters the environment, it can attach to particles in the air, such as dust or smoke. Once these contaminated particles are inhaled, they can deposit in the lungs and cause irritation. Ingestion of silver iodide can lead to nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Prolonged exposure to silver iodide can cause argyria, a condition where silver deposits in the tissues, causing them to turn blue or gray.
Who Are at Risk of Silver Iodide Toxicity?

People who are at an increased risk of silver iodide toxicity are listed below:

People who work with silver iodide in a laboratory or industrial setting.

People such as miners or smelters who are exposed to silver iodide through their occupation.

People who live in areas where silver iodide is used for cloud seeding.

Infants and young children.

Symptoms of silver iodide toxicity can range from mild to severe, including skin irritation, gastrointestinal upset, and respiratory problems. If a person has been exposed to silver iodide, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
What Are the Sources of Exposure to Silver Iodide?

Some potential sources of exposure to silver iodide include:

Occupational Exposure - Workers in industries that use silver iodide, such as the semiconductor or photography industries, may be exposed to the chemical through inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact.

Environmental Exposure - Silver iodide may be released into the environment due to its use in cloud seeding or through accidental spills or leaks.

Consumer Products - Silver iodide may be present in some consumer products, such as certain types of jewelry and clothing, or as an ingredient in cosmetics or dietary supplements.

Medical Treatment - Silver Iodide may be used as a medicinal agent and applied to the skin in creams, ointments, or dressings.

Food and Water - Silver Iodide may be present in some food or water sources due to environmental contamination.

What Are the Symptoms of Silver Iodide Toxicity?

The symptoms of silver iodide toxicity are listed below:

Irritation of the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes.

Gastrointestinal irritation.

Vomiting.

Diarrhea.

Coughing and difficulty breathing.

Kidney damage.

Brain damage.

Death.

Rash or hives.

Tremors.

Abdominal pain.

Changes in skin color."_DR VANDANA RAI
