WHY CLOUD SEEDING
|
Many 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 and its relatively low cost makes it an attractive option to water resource managers. The need for cloud seeding will become more important as we see continue changes in our climate and global warming.

WHAT WE DOWhat can cloud seeding do for the environment?
As the climate continues to change and the natural variability of clouds and precipitation increases, water is becoming an increasingly valuable commodity. Managing this essential resource is becoming more difficult as demands from agriculture, industry, and municipalities strain a limited water supply. Cloud seeding is a powerful modern tool that can provide low-cost clean water to the many of the semi-arid regions of the world. |
