WHAT WE DOMany areas of the world are experiencing water shortages and usage conflicts because of drought and ever increasing demands placed on them by population growth and climate change. Pressures on water supplies are exacerbated by often-conflicting needs such as agriculture, municipal, hydroelectric generation, recreation, endangered species protection and other environmental issues. By using scientifically based methods and modern technologies, cloud seeding can improve a cloud's ability to produce precipitation. When natural cloud systems cannot produce precipitation efficiently, cloud seeding can be used to help optimize the precipitation process. Cloud seeding also has the advantage that it can generate additional clean water for all uses at a relatively low cost. Increased precipitation at a high benefit ratio makes cloud seeding an attractive option to water resource managers. The need for cloud seeding and other weather modification programs will become more important as we see continued changes in our climate and global warming. |
Cloud Seeding and the Environment
As the climate continues to change and the natural variability of clouds and precipitation increases, water is becoming an increasingly valuable commodity.
Weather Modification allows us to provide a helping hand to mother nature during storms that meet carefully chosen criteria. Water is a valuable resource and many areas of the world are in a state of drought or at risk from water shortages due to a lack of precipitation. Managing this essential and valuable resource is becoming more difficult as demands from agriculture, industry, and municipalities strain a limited water supply. Cloud seeding is a safe, effective and powerful modern tool that can provide low-cost clean water to many of the semi-arid regions of the world.
