Geoengineering Test Quietly Launches Salt Crystals into Atmosphere
#15
Not to be an alarmist, because this exercise may be as harmless as they claim, however nothing aerosolized and sprayed into the atmosphere simply "stays" where it is sprayed.  Besides the obvious, sea salt constitutes a major corrosive force, especially for metal objects like cars, bridges, ships, etc. 

Also, while it may be a technical non-issue, breathing higher concentrations of salt in the air might not be medically "inert" as it may have some negative health effects... though of course, I would not wish that to be so.

As it stands, we are still not well versed enough in the science to be casually "trying anything" to "mitigate" the overall climate situation.

This entire 'cloud brightening' exercise is already considered as to have only a slight effect on the climate at best, so who deemed it a "worthwhile" shot in the dark? .... Let me guess... research grant recipients...
