Do you believe that Chem trails are the result of the government controlling our weather?

On of the more tame conspiracy therorys my dh states as fact!!

When we were younger apparently there were no trails behind planes. I’m not sure tbh.

What do you believe?

How i wish the weather could be controlled

Nonsense to the power of bollocks.

Does your DH really believe this?

I really think that sort of carry on would be a relationship deal breaker for me!

Mrskeats · 08/10/2018 21:42

Come on now.

DragonGoby · 08/10/2018 21:43

No. No, I don't.

burn hydrocarbons - produce CO2 and water vapour. At the right altitude the vapour turns to ice crystals. That's contrails (condensation trails)
It's very basic science.

PaintBySticker · 08/10/2018 21:43

No. And I’d associate such a belief with all kinds of other conspiracy theory bollocks. Where does he stand on vaccines causing autism?

ThePencil · 08/10/2018 21:44

When you say there didn't used to be trails behind planes... When are you talking? Because I remember watching the trails when I was little, in the early 80s...

Oh dear, you married this guy?

Heratnumber7 · 08/10/2018 21:44

In other news..... the earth is not flat

Touchacat · 08/10/2018 21:44

They are condensation trails - contrails. They are not chem trails.
The height of a plane and the relative humidity determines how long they stay visible for and whether they are produced at all. Time of year has an affect too since humidity changes throughout the year.
I’m interested to understand why anyone would think the government controls our weather. But I don’t believe for a second that they are.

Kitten don't spoil the fun Grin
As a pp has asked - what are his less tame theories?!

Helmetbymidnight · 08/10/2018 21:45

Does he think all the different govts in the world control their own countries weather?

Why?

DMCWelshCakes · 08/10/2018 21:45

No.

Because it's bollocks.

SilverySurfer · 08/10/2018 21:46

No, I don't believe any human being is clever enough to control weather via chem trails or by any other method. Nor are they releasing mind control drugs as some loonies believe. Hmm

HemanOrSheRa · 08/10/2018 21:46

What?! That is absolutely barking Grin.

Veterinari · 08/10/2018 21:46

And what pray tell, would be the purpose of the government doing so?
Confused

They are controlling the weather for profit, and controlling us with the chemicals they emit.....
