It's like utterly humorless Art Bell fans took over the government.

So if I pray to God, and ask him to send a hurricane to Mar-a-Lago, and he actually does, that's allowed?

So weather manipulation as a byproduct is okay?

Depending on how climate change turns out for some regions, they will definitely come back to the topic of weather engineering. No rain for a year or two will do this for you.

starting with CO2, right Marje??

Jesus Christ 🤦‍♂️

Qult

So like climate change, right?... Right?

What an absolute fucking idiot.

If this unintentionally regulates greenhouse gas emissions I’m going to laugh so hard.

I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity,”

So carbon dioxide? Guess we better shut down the coal power plants. MTG says so!

This is performative ignorance, to please the home schooled bible toting cretins who vote.

So would preventing “geoengineering” also prevent trying to stop climate change?

Misting fans are now a felony

All the fucking stupidest people. Every goddamn idiotic conspiracy theory is getting a pipeline straight to mainstream news outlets and a rep in government now. Instead of some stupid Bircher literature or having to stand out on the street and screech nonsense at passerby who could just ignore the crazy people...

I am seriously wondering when the moon landing denialists and the flat earth morons and the HIV-denialists will get their day of representation, too.

We already have the anti-vaxxer dumbfucks, the Qanon loons, the evolution-denying dipshits, what else is missing...? How about David Icke level bullshit about lizard people?

JFC.

So go after the bullshit corpos releasing megatons of co2 into the atmosphere

So, she wants to ban "cloud seeding"?

These aren't serious people.

Why is mtg still able to talk?

Marjorie Taylor Green is such a waste of resources.

Ugly, dumb and vile.

And I bet she stinks.

Maybe they'll unintentionally outlaw pollution like when the Republicans accidentally legalized cannabis in 2018

Does this make "Rollin' coal" illegal?

I thought she'd prioritize dealing with sharknado attacks but there we have it.

I'll rotfl my mao off when this law will turn out to accidentally punish fossil fuel and chemical companies dispersing chemicals or substances into the atmosphere and altering weather, also known as climate change.

I can see how people in the future could turn this one around on to oil and plastic companies. We should probably not stop this one.

She's attempting to ban Geoengineering. From Wikipedia:

Geoengineering (also known as climate engineering or climate intervention) is the deliberate large-scale interventions in the Earth’s climate system intended to counteract human-caused climate change.[1] The term commonly encompasses two broad categories: large-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and solar radiation modification (SRM). CDR involves techniques to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and is generally considered a form of climate change mitigation. SRM aims to reduce global warming by reflecting a small portion of sunlight (solar radiation) away from Earth and back into space. Although historically grouped together, these approaches differ substantially in mechanisms, timelines, and risk profiles, and are now typically discussed separately.[2]: 168 [3] Some other large-scale engineering proposals—such as interventions to slow the melting of polar and alpine ice—are also sometimes classified as forms of geoengineering.

Some types of geoengineering present political, social and ethical issues. One common objection is that focusing on these technologies could undermine efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Effective governance and international oversight are widely regarded as essential.

Major scientific organizations have examined the potential, risks, and governance needs of geoengineering, including the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,[4][5][6] the Royal Society,[7] the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO),[8] and the World Climate Research Programme.[1]

This is awesome. Do it. What’s gonna happen when the contrails don’t disappear? Who are they gonna arrest? Gonna have to stock up on popcorn because the theatre of the ignorant is about to get really interesting. Finally a piece of legislation I can get excited about.

All this is gonna stop is cloud seeding, since that is literally the only way in which we manipulate the weather.

Well... On purpose, I mean. If this has the side effect of outlawing all greenhouse emissions because it's altering the weather in form of making shit hotter, that's a win.

Edit: Also I am reminded of the time some PR lady for HAARP said the array can manipulate the weather because, technically, it could punch a hole in clouds directly above it. Which I thought was just stupid, even as a joke, because they were trying to squash the rumors that it was some kind of hurricane machine.

I haven’t read the article or comments yet. Just the post title. I am afraid of the amount of brain cells I am about to lose. I’m going in, will update in a moment.

Edit: what the fuck did I just read. A new bill to stop a conspiracy theory? MTG is dumb as a stone and I can’t comprehend how she is still in office

Stop paying attention to her. Make sure the next thing you click on related to her, is footage of her murder.

So glad we handed over all levers of power to these morons.

Oh for fucks sake…. How can one woman be some incredibly dense?

She probably heard somewhere that is why there were flash floods in Texas because some evil genius is punishing “real Americans”.

The ironic thing is the GOP constant bashing of clean, renewable energy and promoting fossil fuels and coal really is affecting the weather, just not in a very predictable or controlled way.

Are they literally just laying the groundwork to frame Democrats for weather modifications so they can blame all of climate change on us and create a modern day witch hunt? Seriously? How the fuck is anyone stupid enough to believe this shit?

anything but the real issue

These people are dumb as rocks. There are also similar elements in GA like Kandiss Taylor(stupid name) beginning their political careers also proclaiming that Climate Change is fake but also suggesting that unprecedented weather conditions must be the work of external forces presumably also blaming the jews.

Seriously fuck this idiot and the idiots who voted for her. Just a disgraceful embarrassment. Then again so is work, so I get it, but have some dignity.

Does it include the pollutants coming from her private jet ?

Geoengineering… like fracking?

Or like building man-made lakes and tunnels? What about digging a pool in my backyard?

Wonder if this could be used against fossil fuel or chemical companies. The only words that would need to be dropped is "express purpose"

I will fuckin love if she fucks around and discovers climate change

At this point she is trolling with legislation, this is not even legislation for financial profit, she is just doing it to fuck with the minds of people that support green energy transition against climate change. Pure malicious glee. I hope she faces mob justice at this point.
