Lots of ignorant comments in here. I’m not even an expert, but numerous scientists agree that the long-term effects of cloud seeding, aka “chemtrails” are not entirely known. However, there are known potential downsides, such as increased flooding and environmental pollution (from the silver iodide used to form the clouds). There are also other downsides to it, but I’m not going to dive into all of that because I’m lazy.
In short, banning cloud seeding isn’t that bad of an idea. Whether the cons outweigh the pros (increased precipitation is good for farmers/crops), that’s a debate worth having among our legislators and the scientific community.
That’s not what the chemtrails theory is. Geoengineering is a worthwhile thing to prevent in a precautionary way. But some whacko Florida Man highjacked this bill to ban using contrails as some sort of chemical/biological mass sterilization agent.

The bill literally is about cloud seeding. The politicians marketed it as chemtrail bullshit, but that doesn’t change the actual content of the bill.
