The Tennessee Senate has passed a bill targeting “chemtrails.”

SB 2691/HB 2063, sponsored by Rep. Monty Fritts, R-Kingston, and Sen. Steve Southerland, R-Morristown, passed in the Senate on Monday. The bill has yet to advance in the House.

The bill claims it is “documented the federal government or other entities acting on the federal government’s behalf or at the federal government’s request may conduct geoengineering experiments by intentionally dispersing chemicals into the atmosphere, and those activities may occur within the State of Tennessee,” according to the bill.

The legislation would ban the practice in Tennessee.

“The intentional injection, release, or dispersion, by any means, of chemicals, chemical compounds, substances, or apparatus within the borders of this state into the atmosphere with the express purpose of affecting temperature, weather, or the intensity of the sunlight is prohibited,” the bill reads.

The bill is scheduled to go to the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee on Wednesday.

    Chemtrails are the mind control drugs. This is banning cloud seeding which is actually being performed in some locales.

        What else is actually being done now thats banned by this? Or is this just preemptive banning of technocrats stupid geoengineering ideas to fight climate change?

        They put the mind control drugs directly into the jet fuel. Not even the pilots know they are complicit in the conspiracy.

        Interestingly, this bill only bans spraying for purposes of affecting weather. This bill does not actually ban chemtrails.

          Complete horsecocky. There is no truth to these conspiracies whatsoever. No one has ever posted undeniable proof of such junk. Stop fear-mongering the people for your pursuits. It’s just as bad as Trump’s constant lies. This is the type of junk that keeps Libertarians from holding importance in American politics. Ridiculous stuff. Stop.

            Methinks thou doth protest too much…

            I don’t subscribe to chemtrail conspiracies. The idea is patently ludicrous on about a dozen fronts.

            That being said, there is a theory that leaded gasoline was a major factor in violent crime. The theory is that lead poisoning has significant behavioral symptoms, so widespread exposure would artificially increase hostility and violence in industrialized societies.

            Spark-ignition general aviation engines still burn 100LL, a leaded gasoline. They add tetraethyl lead to the fuel to increase its octane rating, allowing higher compression ratios and lower risk of pinging/detonation. It’s less lead than the automotive industry ever added. The total quantity of 100LL being burnt is a tiny, miniscule fraction of what cars used, and it is spread out over an extraordinarily large area, away from people rather than concentrated in urban environments.

            But, it is a chemical compound known to affect human behavior. And it is deliberately added to a certain type of aviation fuel.
