[[Geoengineering]] is the artificial modification of Earths climate systems through two primary ideologies, Solar Radiation Management (SRM) and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR). According to the [[Chemtrails|chemtrail conspiracy theory]], long-lasting trails left in the sky by high-flying aircraft are chemical or biological agents deliberately sprayed for sinister purposes undisclosed to the general public. Believers in the theory argue that normal contrails dissipate relatively quickly, and contrails that do not dissipate must contain additional substances. These arguments have been dismissed by the scientific community: such trails are normal water-based contrails that are routinely left by high-flying aircraft under certain atmospheric conditions. Although proponents have attempted to prove that the claimed chemical spraying does take place, their analyses have been flawed or based on misconceptions. | [[Geoengineering]] is the scientifically used term for artificial modification of Earths climate systems through two primary ideologies, Solar Radiation Management (SRM) and Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR).

Because of the widespread popularity of the [[Conspiracy theorist|conspiracy theory]], official agencies have received many inquiries from people demanding an explanation. Believers in the [[Conspiracy theorist|conspiracy theory]] speculate that the purpose of the claimed chemical release may be solar radiation management, [[Mind Control|psychological manipulation]], human population control, weather modification, or biological or chemical warfare, and that the trails are causing respiratory illnesses and other health problems.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemtrail_conspiracy_theory Cemtrail Conspiracy]</ref> | Because of the widespread popularity of the [[Conspiracy theorist|conspiracy theory]], official agencies have received many inquiries from people demanding an explanation.
