On Saturday, thousands protested in London against the UK government’s plans to conduct solar geoengineering experiments to dim the Sun. They have good reason to resist chemtrail and other geoengineering programs.

In May last year, Dr. Herndon co-authored a paper published in the Advances in Social Sciences Research Journal. The paper presented scientific evidence, including rainwater and snow analyses, showing elevated levels of elements consistent with coal fly ash, suggesting its use in covert atmospheric spraying. Data from laboratory testing of samples of rainwater and snow “strongly suggest that coal fly ash is being used in worldwide covert geoengineering operations,” the authors said. They argued that the use of aerosolised coal fly ash in geoengineering operations is causing widespread environmental damage and poses a severe threat to life on Earth.

The paper stated that coal fly ash, dispersed into the atmosphere, contaminates the environment with mercury, depletes the ozone layer, disrupts the iron balance in nature and leads to various health problems in humans, including lung disease, immune system dysfunction, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. The authors further assert that this practice is a major factor in forest fires, harms plant and animal life, and contributes to the decline of insects, birds and bats. As an anonymous UK commercial airline pilot told Drake Michigan in a 2023 interview, “The two purposes for chemtrailing are very, very clear. It’s to poison us and block out the sun.”
