Goodbye Sunshine

Yesterday’s conspiracy theories are rapidly becoming today’s news. I had my doubts about the rumours emerging toward the end of the Covid era that “they” were planning to block out the sun to combat the (in my view) non-existent phenomenon of global warming. What I had always understood to be contrails or vapour trails appearing in the wake of planes were increasingly being described as “chemtrails.”

I assumed this was an effort to seize the narrative and shift scientific discourse toward a more conspiratorial tone. Social media and non-mainstream outlets were posting photos of skies criss-crossed with contrails, alongside before-and-after pictures showing sunny skies rapidly clouding over. I dismissed this as hysteria, brought on by the fact that air traffic had virtually ceased during Covid and people had simply forgotten what the sky looked like when aviation resumed.

Then, at the end of the Covid era, when non-essential businesses were beginning to reopen and we were permitted to travel again, I was driving from Hull to Lincoln and saw what I consider to be evidence of what people were reporting. On the A15, a patch of sky was criss-crossed with contrails. The pattern was almost perfect and quite low in the sky. Something was clearly going on.

It was no longer possible to deny what I was seeing with my own eyes. Being a very early riser, I was frequently emerging from our house to a cloudless sky at around 6 a.m., only for it to be overcast by 9 a.m. Contrails were clearly visible—many more than I ever recalled—and they gradually joined to block out the sun. This activity was particularly noticeable early last year. Using an app on my phone, I traced some very suspicious, regular criss-crossing and circular patterns of small aircraft above our city.

Then I reviewed Daniel Jupp’s excellent Gates of Hell for The European Conservative, in which the nefarious activities of Bill Gates were investigated and exposed. The book charts the rise of this utterly ruthless individual—from his dabbling with programming and the development of Microsoft, to the destruction of rival companies, his alleged mistreatment of sick employees, unproven allegations of sexual misconduct (legal and illegal), his global vaccination programmes, and his funding of efforts to alter the climate by blocking out the sun.

So, it’s true: “they” are trying to block out the sun. What could possibly go wrong?

The meagre amount of sunshine we see in this country—only half of what they get just a two-hour flight away in Italy—is vital. We need it to grow crops, maintain our vitamin D levels, and make it bearable to holiday within our shores.

It is quite possible, as I strongly suspect, that efforts to block out the sun are already underway and that the funding allocation is simply a cover-up. That may sound conspiratorial, but according to those professional killjoys at the Met Office: “2024 was a relatively dull year for the UK, receiving the lowest hours of bright sunshine since 1998.”

“However,” they continue—almost as though this were bad news—“this is against a backdrop of a longer-term trend of increasing sunshine in the UK, which has been especially notable since the 1980s. Sunshine amounts in winter and spring have seen the largest changes, with 15–16% increases in the past decade compared to the 1961–90 reference period.”

Hysteria about global warming is largely manufactured. The excellent film Climate: The Movie, featuring a cast of climate change experts—including a Nobel laureate and the founder of Greenpeace—lays this out explicitly. Global warming is a hoax intended to induce fear in a largely gullible public, allowing us to be sold a secondary series of hoaxes, including wind turbines, solar panels, and heat pumps.

Whether we can successfully block the sun—which is the question driving these latest research projects—is irrelevant. The real question is: “Why are we doing it?” As with other recent global hoaxes—face masks and Covid vaccines among them—somebody is profiting. Most probably, Bill Gates.

Chemical Skywriting: The Dystopian Gamble of Solar Radiation Management

 

TOM RENZ

In a world obsessed with climate hysteria, the latest brainchild of the globalists is something straight out of a dystopian sci-fi novel: spray the skies with chemicals to “fight” global warming. It’s called Solar Radiation Management (SRM), and the plan is as absurd as it is dangerous.

If you haven’t heard of it, that’s no accident. It’s been quietly creeping from fringe theory to policy pipeline under the radar of public scrutiny.

The Real Climate Debate Isn’t Settled

Let’s start with the sacred cow no one is allowed to question: the theory that man-made CO₂ emissions are driving us toward planetary doom.

We are told the science is “settled.” It’s not. Climate has been fluctuating for millions of years. There have been ice ages and warm periods long before the industrial revolution. There were no factories during the Medieval Warm Period or the Little Ice Age. Nature did that all by itself.

Are humans having some impact? Maybe. But is it the sole or primary driver of change? That’s still up for debate—when scientists are capable and allowed to think.

Climate models that predicted polar ice-free summers and massive sea-level rises have been consistently wrong (anyone remember Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth and his hockey stick graph?). In fact, a study in Nature Climate Change found that models systematically overestimate warming (source). But instead of pausing and reassessing, the so-called experts have decided it’s time to take over the sky.

What Is Solar Radiation Management, Really?

SRM is the idea that we can cool the planet by spraying tiny reflective particles—like sulfur dioxide—into the upper atmosphere. Think of it as a man-made volcanic eruption. The particles block sunlight, reduce incoming solar radiation, and thereby cool the planet.

The materials considered for injection include:

• Sulfur dioxide, which causes acid rain and respiratory damage (EPA)
• Aluminum oxide, linked to neurological effects in some exposure studies and God knows what else (NIH)
• Barium, a heavy metal with loads of toxicity concerns
• Stratospheric calcium carbonate, which remains untested on a planetary scale

They want to spray these chemicals into the sky above your head—and they don’t have any real health or environmental data to prove it’s safe.

A Cosmetic Fix for a Complex Planet

Even if you buy into the climate crisis narrative, SRM doesn’t even solve the root problem. These guys claim this is all because of greenhouse gases but this does nothing to reduce those gases, stop ocean acidification (it may make that worse), or restore balance to ecosystems. It’s a surface-level intervention masquerading as a solution.

More importantly, SRM introduces massive risk. Modifying sunlight distribution globally could:

• Disrupt monsoon systems critical to agriculture in Africa and Asia (Scientific American)
• Cause droughts in some regions and excessive precipitation in others
• Trigger ecosystem collapses from overcooling or abrupt changes

And then there’s the risk of termination shock—if the spraying stops suddenly, the suppressed warming could spike uncontrollably, leading to catastrophic temperature jumps (Reason Magazine).

The Technocrats Are In Charge—Not You

Who decides to deploy SRM? Certainly not the public.

Projects like Harvard’s SCoPEx (Stratospheric Controlled Perturbation Experiment) have already received funding to test these techniques, with backing from private billionaires like Bill Gates (Harvard SCoPEx Project – this project has changed and may have ceased but has been picked up the the UK government). The U.S. government was also exploring “climate intervention” through the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy under Biden but thankfully Trump has put an end to that too.

And while the European Union’s science advisors have urged a global moratorium on SRM due to unknown risks (The Guardian), research and funding continue full speed ahead. The UK is – inexplicably – leading with this research (The Guardian).

No vote. No accountability. No exit strategy.

Ask the Hard Questions Now

This isn’t about politics. It’s about real science and basic sanity.

• Why are we ignoring natural climate cycles that existed long before fossil fuels?
• Why are failed models still driving policy?
• Why are we accepting a chemical experiment in our skies with no safety trials?

Geoengineering isn’t a fix. It’s a planetary gamble with lives, ecosystems, and food supplies on the line.

Don’t Look Up—Look Around

This is not a conspiracy theory. This is reality.

SRM is being researched, tested, and pushed as policy by the same class of experts who couldn’t predict inflation or manage a pandemic. If we allow them to move forward unchecked, we may soon find ourselves living under a man-made chemical canopy—without a single democratic vote cast.

We don’t need to engineer the planet. We need to protect it from those who think they own it.
