Legal Action Update: Government Controlling Weather Forecasts To Cover Climate Engineering Crimes

Dane Wigington
GeoengineeringWatch.org
How much longer can our government continue to hide the global climate engineering assault in plain sight? How much longer will populations continue to blindly accept the official government narrative of lies and denial in regard to the clearly visible and rationally undeniable ongoing geoengineering operations? How is it possible for the power structure to create and maintain the official denial of fully deployed climate intervention programs? By completely controlling the flow of information, including the weather forecasts themselves.

GeoengineeringWatch.org and Stop Geoengineering Minnesota are relentlessly continuing with our legal efforts to force disclosure of the ongoing illegal climate engineering operations. The statement below was made by the lead attorney for our Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering, Julio Gomez, Esq. The statement is a response to a handful of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) documents that have finally been released to us as a direct result of the lawsuit that we filed to force NOAA to release the information. Though thousands of documents have been promised to be reviewed for release, to date only a few have actually been disclosed and received. The documents we have been able to acquire make it clear that the US government is doing all they can to completely control weather forecasts all the way down to the local level. Why? So that forecasts are based on the scheduled weather produced by the climate engineering operations, not by nature. In order to help hide the ongoing climate engineering crimes, the government is desperate to enforce consistent and completely controlled weather “forecasts”.
PROPOSED ANNOUNCEMENT
Last week the NOAA – The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released a series of documents concerning the restructuring of the National Weather Service under a program entitled Operations and Workforce Analysis. The documents were released pursuant to a Freedom of Information Act Request made by Stop Geoengineering Minnesota in collaboration with GeoengineeringWatch.org and was filed last year. The documents are being released because Stop Geoengineering Minnesota filed a legal suit against the US Department of Commerce for failing to respond adequately to the FOIA request.The documents are the first tranche in a series of releases that are planned every 30 days for the next few months. This set we just received contains statements and communications between the National Weather Service and the employee union, the National Weather Service Employees Organization or NWSEO. According to these documents National Weather Service employees were asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement to prevent them from discussing steps the National Weather Service is taking to restructure the agency, the steps included the following:
- Reductions in personnel and/or not filling between 300-600 vacancies in NWS offices across the country which strain resources and personnel;
- the possibility that local meteorologists will no longer “own the forecast” in their region;
- that the role of local forecasters will be diminished; that they will be disincentivized or even prohibited from making changes to the forecast models they receive;
- that local forecasters are being removed from the forecast process and being replaced with supercomputers and upgraded forecast models.
According to these documents, the National Weather Service’s Weather Prediction Center in Maryland will have the final say or “last touch” over all local forecasts. Thus, the restructuring can be viewed as an attempt to centralize and control weather forecasts for the whole country.It can be inferred that the National Weather Service wanted to gag their employees and keep them from speaking about these issues because they do not want the public to know that the National Weather Service is restructuring to control and have final say in all local forecasts.According to statements attributed to the employees’ union in these documents:“it is difficult to give management claim[s] much credibility when we already have reports from Central Region that local forecasters are being highly discouraged or possibly even prohibited at certain local Weather Forecast Offices from making changes to the raw “Central Region Superblend” [forecast] model output, which is being automatically loaded into the forecast databases of those offices (wiping out the existing forecast) twice daily.”GeoengineeringWatch.org is committed to defending the right of National Weather Service employees to speak freely about the restructuring and to voice their concerns; Geoengineering Watch will continue to monitor this restructuring and report back on future document releases.
On the most recent scheduled date for NOAA document releases to our attorneys, not a single additional document was produced by NOAA. Public pressure to disclose information must be brought to bear on our so called government and all the agencies that our government controls, like NOAA. Awakening populations to what is occurring in our skies is the great imperative, this effort will require all of us. If we can reach a critical mass of awareness, we can alter the equation in the right direction. GeoengineeringWatch.org and Stop Geoengineering Minnesota will continue with our legal efforts to force disclosure of the ongoing geoengineering operations, more updates to come. Help us in the critical effort to sound the alarm, help us to share credible data, make your voice heard.

Geoengineering Exposé Mass Press Release To 30,000 Media & Agency Contacts

Dane Wigington
GeoengineeringWatch.org
If we are to have any chance of prevailing in the battle to expose and halt the ongoing global climate intervention assault, every available method of spreading credible data must be utilized. Geoengineering Watch, Minnesota Natural Health Coalition, and the Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering have just funded a press release that will reach an estimated 30,000 media, agency, organization, and industry sources. Introducing credible and verifiable climate engineering information on the widest possible scale is essential in the battle to reach a critical mass of geoengineering awareness.
Below is the full press release that has gone out to an estimated 30,000 sources.
Organizations Warn Covert Geoengineering Programs Fuel Unprecedented Firestorms
The extremely destructive and deadly firestorms in California were not simply an act of nature or a result of global warming. Extensive and compelling evidence implicates “climate intervention” programs (also known as "geoengineering") as a major factor in the firestorm catastrophes.
Legal action was recently filed against the U.S. Department of Commerce by the Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering (LASG). The Department of Commerce is the overseeing agency for National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) who is refusing to respond to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests on climate engineering. The LASG group is a part of an anti-geoengineering collaborative effort organized by Minnesota Natural Health Coalition and GeoengineeringWatch.org
Geoengineering is the science term that applies to processes of climate intervention on a global scale. Climate engineering programs are completely disrupting natural weather and climate cycles all over the world, destroying the ozone layer, and decreasing the overall hydrological cycle (which, in turn, fuels record drought and firestorms).
The stated purpose of geoengineering and solar radiation management (SRM) operations is to slow down or temporarily mitigate an unfolding runaway greenhouse scenario on Earth (potentially triggering “Venus Syndrome”).
Climate engineering also creates a phenomenon known as "global dimming.” Solar obscuration (blocking the sun) is a primary stated objective of geoengineering / SRM programs. Though "official sources" claim global dimming is simply from aircraft "condensation" trails, this narrative is a cover-up for the ongoing climate engineering operations.

A primary process of climate engineering operations involves jet aircraft spraying of atmospheric aerosol particulates. These elements are then manipulated with powerful ground based radio frequency / microwave transmissions. Available evidence makes clear governments around the globe are cooperating on climate engineering operations due to the cross-border ramifications of geoengineering (the massive military of the U.S. is unarguably the largest participant).
Evidence to confirm the reality of geoengineering includes a 750 page senate document, historical presidential reports, U.S. military documents, film footage, and an extensive list of climate engineering patents. The initial focus of climate intervention programs appears to have been concentrated over the polar regions. However, ongoing geoengineering programs have long since been become global in their scope and scale.
Known consequences of ongoing climate engineering programs are many, and are increasing rapidly. Despite verifiable, immense destruction being inflicted on the biosphere and the entire web of life by climate engineering, all official agencies and sources still deny this reality.
In some mainstream publications, geoengineering has recently been referred to as being "our only hope.” After some 70 years of covert climate engineering/solar radiation management operations, all available data makes clear – global geoengineering programs are making an already dire climate scenario far worse (not better). Further, heavy metal particulates utilized in climate engineering operations have effectively contaminated the entire biosphere.

Toxic heavy metal fallout from ongoing aerosol operations has been confirmed by lab tests from the U.S., and other locations around the globe. Environmental protection agencies have not disclosed this verifiable contamination, which is inflicting catastrophic damage on the atmosphere, the environment, and human health. A major percentage of these airborne particulates is made up of aluminum and barium, this creates an incendiary dust that coats foliage and structures (also contributing to the ferocity of firestorms).
In an apparent attempt to hide this unfolding reality from the public for as long as possible, a federal "gag order" has been placed on all National Weather Service and NOAA employees.
Additional legal filings / FOIAs are being prepared by the LASG team of attorneys. LASG attorneys intend to fully expose the covert and illegal global climate engineering programs which have been carried out for decades without public knowledge or consent. A public outcry against geoengineering operations is desperately needed to bring the operations to a halt.
The short video below highlights numerous verifiable factors implicating ongoing climate intervention operations as a major causal component in skyrocketing occurrences of unprecedented, deadly firestorms.

Anti-Geoengineering Legal Team Sues The US Department Of Commerce

Dane Wigington
GeoengineeringWatch.org
The “Government” of the United States long ago decided they were above the law, the completely illegal covert climate engineering operations are a glaring case in point. Exposing and halting the ongoing climate engineering / geoengineering assault continues to be the primary focus of GeoengineeringWatch.org and the Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering (LASG).

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is completely stonewalling the “Freedom Of Information Requests” (FOIA’s) from LASG attorneys. Governmental agencies are legally required to respond to such requests. The US Department of Commerce is the government agency that oversees NOAA.

In response to the government's illegal withholding of information, legal action has been initiated by LASG against the US Department of Commerce. The statement below is from LASG attorney, Petra Brokken.
Stop Geoengineering Minnesota has brought suit in United States District Court for the District of Columbia against the Department of Commerce, as well as against NOAA, for the failure to respond to requests for information regarding weather modification under a Freedom of Information (FOIA) request. SGM is a project of the non-profit, Minnesota Natural Health Coalition, which works in collaboration with Geoengineering Watch (GeoengineeringWatch.org), in an effort to bring attention to weather modification and to litigate issues related to geoengineering and illegal weather modification. SGM has requested records concerning weather modification in the possession of the Weather Service, and the reason for the agency imposing illegal gag orders on their employees. SGM is requesting an order to have the Dept. of Commerce promptly provide the records; declare that the failure to disclose is unlawful; that the failure to make a timely determination is unlawful; that the failure to provide SGM with an estimated completion date for their FOIA request and appeal, is unlawful.

Legal And Governmental Representatives Speak Out About Geoengineering

Dane Wigington
GeoengineeringWatch.org
The critical effort to expose an halt climate engineering continues on countless fronts. In the state of Rhode Island, Representative Justin Price has courageously kept up his push to pass anti-geoengineering legislation. The latest draft of the Rhode Island legislation proposal was brought before the committee on "Environment and Natural Resources". Our lead attorney from the Legal Alliance To Stop Climate Engineering, Julio Gomez, traveled to Rhode Island in order to speak in support of the proposed Rhode Island legislation. It is important to remember and consider that the primary purpose of any such attempt to pass legislation is to bring desperately needed attention to the critical climate engineering issue. The only chance such legislation has of progressing is if the legislation does not force the conclusion that geoengineering is already a reality. From a legal and legislative perspective, this point must be kept in mind. Though catastrophic climate engineering programs have been deployed for over 70 years, the process of effectively bringing this fact to light must be in a manner that does not kill the proposed anti-geoengineering legislation before it can even get started. An 18 minute audio below contains the testimony of RI representative Justin Price and LASG attorney Julio Gomez.
A full copy of the proposed legislation is in the PDF file below.

It is imperative for each and every one of us to continue with the critical effort of exposing the catastrophic climate engineering programs while there is still something left to salvage of our planet's life support systems.

Scientists Surveyed Unanimously Refuse To Deny Climate Engineering Reality

Dane Wigington
geoengineeringwatch.org
On Friday, October 7th, 2016, GeoengineeringWatch.org and the Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering (LASG) carried out a simple survey that involved 1518 climate scientists and experts. The survey message headline sent to the scientists/experts was titled "Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering Survey". Below is the very simple and straight forward survey statement sent out to 1518 climate scientists/experts by GeoengineeringWatch and the LASG team. This survey was worded in a specific fashion for a reason. The climate science community has systematically claimed that geoengineering prograns are only a "proposal". But what happens when this community is asked to state their denial on the record?
Anti-Geoengineering Legal Alliance Files US 60 Day Notice Of Legal Action

Dane Wigington
geoengineeringwatch.org
For over a year GeoengineeringWatch.org and a group of very dedicated attorneys has diligently and consistently worked on formulating a plan of legal action to effectively expose and halt the ongoing global climate engineering assault against our planet. Our team, the Legal Alliance To Stop Geoengineering, is comprised of attorneys and experts that are completely committed to the most critical cause of stopping global geoengineering. The increase in public awareness that will result from this legal effort is crucial. Public support of this effort is essential in order for the legal team to continue moving forward in this this critical battle.
The commencement of this plan is now underway with the notices of pending legal action already being sent out by certified mail to ALL the potential defendants named on the "60 day notice". This very carefully crafted and very extensive document should be thoroughly examined by all, it is the core point of this entire post. This document/legal notice (including plaintiffs) can be reviewed by clicking the PDF icon image below.
The global climate engineering assault against planet Earth, it's climate systems, and all life forms, is the most urgent untold story in human history. How can such blatantly obvious atrocities continue to be hidden in plain sight?

These unimaginably massive and destructive geoengineering/solar radiation management experiments have been fully deployed and perpetually expanding for over 70 years. The atmospheric spraying of toxic heavy metals and chemical elements (that are related to climate engineering programs) have been carried out by our government (and other nations around the globe) without the knowledge or consent of their populations. Those who control the weather, control the people, and in the process, the life support systems of our planet are being systematically torn apart. Below is a statement about the "60 day legal notice" from LASG attorney, James Grant:
In coordination with GeoengineeringWatch.Org, the Legal Alliance to Stop Geoengineering, a cross-borders group of like-minded attorneys and their litigation team, are in the process of serving the attached “60-Day Notice” on the US government, including the Department of Defense and Environmental Protection Agency, as well as certain state, county and local regulatory agencies and entities in California, that LASG will soon file a citizens lawsuit in California federal court for declaratory and injunctive relief to expose and enjoin the toxic aerosol discharge programs being conducted by certain “Violators” without scrutiny by certain “Delinquent Regulators” (both prospective defendant groups are identified in the Notice) at high elevation over California and beyond in the dubious and unlawful effort to address/combat climate change and otherwise modify/engineer the weather.
In this time of disclosure, the citizens of this nation – indeed, of this planet – deserve to know the nature and extent of the aerosol discharge programs (“Programs”) occurring in the skies over California and its waters (both coastal and inland), as well as across the country and beyond our borders. These Programs are now sometimes referred to as "solar radiation management”, “stratospheric aerosol geoengineering", and/or “stratospheric aerosol injection” programs. Such Programs are being conducted by various entities, including the US military, its contractors and affiliates, without regulatory agency scrutiny or public debate. Beyond the fictional defense that “it’s not happening” and the artificial clouds that are “just persistent contrails” from commercial aircraft (often in crisscross patterns that defy any notion of rational air traffic control and that feather out into a milky haze), the actual Programs are releasing nano-particulates of toxic materials, including but not limited to aluminum oxide, barium and strontium, into the atmosphere at high levels in the dubious and unlawful effort to impact the climate or for other reasons unknown. Based on the law of gravity, such toxic and tortious dispersions are coming down to ground-level waters, and contaminating our air, soil and water. The resulting devastation and damage to our environment and human health are widespread.
There is no “pharmaceutical fix” to climate change and global warming. As Albert Einstein said: “We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” We deserve answers from the groups releasing toxic chemicals over our heads through the Programs, as well as from those who have turned a blind eye to them, in violation of our environmental and human rights laws. President Abraham Lincoln said: “I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.”
The Programs are occurring without legal permits, scientific justification (sound or otherwise) or public comment or debate. While such programs violate a broad spectrum of state and federal environmental and other laws, rules and regulations, LASG’s 60-Day Notice to the “Violators” and “Delinquent Regulators” and prospective federal lawsuit focus on violations of the federal Clean Water Act and Safe Drinking Water Act arising out of the contamination of the California water supply in Shasta, Placer, Siskiyou and Santa Cruz Counties, including the Sacramento Delta, which impacts the majority of California’s drinking water supply. Such violations impose strict liability on the parties involved in the non-permitted Programs, as well as mandatory obligations on the municipalities and regulatory agencies authorized to prevent such Programs.
We will post periodic updates on any response by the prospective defendants to the 60-Day Notice, as well as LASG’s filing of a citizens’ lawsuit to expose and enjoin the unlawful Programs. We anticipate the upcoming action will be heavily litigated because the stakes are high. If you wish to support our effort, please visit our website and contribute what you can. We are doing this for all of us who inhabit this beautiful planet and have a responsibility to protect it now and for the future.

The threat posed by our now imploding climate system and environment is unimaginably grave and immediate. All available data makes clear that global climate engineering programs are making an already catastrophic climate collapse far worse overall. What we collectively face is nothing short of an immediate existential threat. SRM programs are fueling ozone layer destruction and a complete disruption of the Earth's hydrological cycle. Chemically ice nucleated large scale surface cool-downs are also a major component of the climate engineering onslaught. From massive government documents, to extensive lists of climate engineering patents, to up-close irrefutable film footage of jet aircraft spraying, to satellite images of cloud formations that are inarguably engineered, the ongoing weather warfare cannot be rationally denied.

Governments around the globe are involved with the covert climate engineering insanity, we are at an unimaginably dire time in human history. The effort to stop climate engineering should be, must be, the most catalyzing and urgent issue for the whole of the human race. The Legal Alliance To Stop Geoengineering team has worked tirelessly on this most critical issue in order to credibly move the ball forward in this must win battle.

GeoengineeringWatch.org Introduces The US Anti-Geoengineering Legal Team

Dane Wigington
geoengineeringwatch.org
The military industrial complex is completely out of control, the ongoing global climate engineering atrocities are the most dire and glaring testimony to this fact. Official government documents (like a 750 page US senate report and an 80 page presidential report) prove this fact beyond reasonable doubt. In the power structure's increasing desperate attempt to hide the truth, there is now an illegal federal "gag order" on all National Weather Service and NOAA employees. The long and growing list of climate engineering patents is also a glaring confirmation of global climate engineering and the powers invested in it. Those in power would have us believe that we cannot "fight the system". They would have us believe that the efforts of a few cannot make a difference or "turn the tide". We must never accept this lie. All of our combined efforts (especially including all the front line activists that are doing their best to sound the alarm) have helped immensely to raise public awareness on the critical climate engineering issue. As that awareness grows exponentially, many new activists have joined our ranks from countless professions. Some of those that have stepped forward are concerned and courageous attorneys. The attorneys introduced below are a part of the US legal team that is working with GeoengineeringWatch.org on the critical effort to expose and halt the ongoing climate engineering insanity in addition to the Canadian legal team that geoengineeringwatch.org is working with. Over the last year I have had the distinct honor of working with each and all of the attorneys introduced below (and several more on the team that may be introduced at a later date).

Just look up and you will see the climate modification and cloud engineering programs by the federal government, its contractors and other affiliates going on in our skies almost every day. They are releasing toxic chemicals over our heads and environment without scientific justification, public debate or legal permit. That is not “natural” cloud formation or the byproduct of commercial aircraft. The elephant in the sky is real and is subject to the rule of law, including the law of gravity. The resulting damage to our environment and human health is widespread.
There is no “pharmaceutical fix” to climate change and global warming. As Albert Einstein said: “We can not solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” We deserve answers from the groups releasing toxic chemicals over our heads, as well as from those who have turned a blind eye to them, in violation of our environmental and human rights laws. President Lincoln said: “I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.” We all must wake up and confront the reality of what is happening. Martin Luther King, Jr. said: “There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.”
As an attorney, officer of the court, citizen of this nation, and steward of this planet, I have a fiduciary duty to shine a light on the climate engineering programs occurring virtually every day over California and across the country. The federal lawsuit we are preparing and will soon file seeks to stop the climate engineering programs and have those involved answer to the people and planet. Hopefully, the lawsuit will also spark public debate and real media attention to address the challenge of climate change in a responsible manner and without further delay. Time is of the essence to do the right thing.
Robert L. Wegman, ESQ
The Law Office Of Robert L. Wegman, PLC
Robert L. Wegman, PLC, is a Chesapeake attorney serving the Hampton Roads, VA, area.
Born September 2, 1961, in Columbus, Ohio, Mr. Wegman grew up in a military family. His father retired from the Air Force, and as a child Mr. Wegman spent a great deal of his life living on military bases, and surrounded by the honorable men and women of the U.S. Military. He graduated from undergraduate school in 1983 In 1989, Mr. Wegman was selected to attend Coast Guard Officer Candidate School. He proudly served for almost 12 years achieving the rank of Lieutenant Commander. While serving many quasi-legal and operational roles during the aftermath of massive Exxon Valdez oil spill, he gained a keen interest in environmental law. He decided to apply for the highly competitive and prestigious Legal Education Program, and was one of 4 selected to attend law school full time.
Mr. Wegman chose New York Law School in Manhattan where he was meritoriously selected to be an editor of the heralded Law Review. Upon graduation with his Juris Doctorate degree, he was transferred to MLC Atlantic and Atlantic Area commands in Norfolk and Portsmouth, respectively, where he served in the Legal Division. His military experience served to further his dedication to his clients. While in the Coast Guard, Mr. Wegman was temporarily assigned to the Naval Legal Service Office, where he defended the rights of sailors and marines in countless Administrative Discharge Boards, Boards of Inquiry, and Courts-Martial, involving the most serious charges and offenses. He also spent 20 months as a Special Assistant United States Attorney in the Norfolk Division where he prosecuted felonies and misdemeanors in federal court.
Mr. Wegman resigned in 2000 to pursue private practice. He was hired as an environmental lawyer with the renowned law firm Paul Hastings Janofsky & Walker on Park Avenue and 55th Street in Manhattan. There, he did a lot of environmental site assessment work and represented the Intrepid Sea Air Space Museum in asbestos litigation before the New York Department of Conservation. He also assisted with rewriting sections of the leading treatise on New York Environmental Law.
Following the tragedy of 9/11, Mr. Wegman volunteered to assist grieving families, particularly those of first responders with their legal needs, including affidavits pertaining to their missing and presumed dead loved ones. The slow down in the real estate market in New York led Mr. Wegman to pursue other options where in 2003, he opened his own firm.
Michel de Montaigne in the 16th century once said "Ignorance is the softest pillow on which a man can rest his head." Though that prolific statement applies more today than at any point in my lifetime, I can only wonder what he would have said about complacency. How can a rational person look into the sky and think the ubiquitous persistent trails, creating grid-like patterns are anything but the work of forces bent on destroying earth's life support system? I joined the movement to end geoengineering. I have witnessed the destruction of plant and animal life, and I have heard too many people attempt to explain away their own irrational and sudden respiratory health issues, including chronic fatigue, using rational thought.
Nothing is more frustrating than attempting to discuss the possible causes of planetary destruction with people who refuse to see what is "hidden in plain sight." People are simply too preoccupied to look up, and they lack the intellectual curiosity to see if what I am saying could hold a kernel of truth. It's more than fair to say this team is risking friendships, public and private humiliation, and even marriages to do what has to be done. Mankind is on borrowed time. By the time people wake up, it may well be too late to save our home (the earth) and ourselves. But, I cannot, and will not, go down without a fight. I thank Dane for helping me to find some sense of order out of this chaos. His website has been a valuable resource. He has opened my eyes, and I am honored to be a part of the legal team.
Finally, Montaigne is also credited with saying "if you don't know how to die, don't worry; Nature will tell you what to do on the spot, fully, and adequately. She will do this job perfectly for you; don't bother your head about it." The planetary destruction is not natural, thus I will worry my head about it until I can no longer do so. The military/industrial complex Eisenhower warned us about has been running amok and must be stopped. As we used to say in the military: lead, follow, or get out of the way. Dane has demonstrated how to lead. I am more than prepared to follow and I urge the rest of you to do the same.

Deliberate climate modification through aerosol spraying is the greatest manmade environmental disaster that has ever occurred on the planet. I have long been an environmentalist, but a few years ago when I woke up to what was happening in our skies, I realized that unless we stopped climate modification, the other environmental issues would be moot. Though I believe that educating others that this happening is very important, nothing much stops in America without lawsuits. If we have any hope to stop geoengineering at all, I believe that lawsuits are the best way. I am here to provide support in helping these lawsuits go forward.

"It's pretty simple actually. It's a serious felony to dump noxious and harmful substances into the Nation's water supplies without federal permits.— No one in their right minds would think this is a lawful activity. Day after day with reckless indifference these polluters engage in egregious and flagrant violation of the bedrock of our water health and safety laws — the Clean Water and Safe Drinking Water Acts. And to see the federal and state regulators sit idly by and look the other way is equally abhorrent — they have betrayed their oaths and the sacred trust of their offices by failing to exercise vigilance and enforce our nation's pollution laws designed to protect us and the environment. The mission of our legal team is to do everything possible to put an immediate end to this constant and unrelenting poisonous dosing of us and our nation's waters through unauthorized aerial spraying. And we are going to stop this activity by going to federal court — the courts are the highest authority in the land, and our best chance for relief from this insanity.
As private "attorney generals," we are taking these polluters and our delinquent regulatory agencies to court using the citizen suit provisions of our environmental laws. Our message is simple — you break the law, you suffer the consequences, including restoration of the environmental damage you caused. Those involved in this around the clock aerial dumping by spraying make the heinous midnight dumpers of yesteryear look like little leaguers by comparison. We will stop this insanity."
Dane Wigington
For the last twelve years Dane has been completely focused on investigating, exposing, and halting the ongoing global climate engineering insanity. He is the lead researcher and administrator for the website GeoengineeringWatch.org. He was a former employee of Bechtel Power corporation and has a background in renewable energy. Dane's completely off-grid home in the wilderness of Northern California was the cover article of the world's largest renewable energy magazine. When Dane began to note massive losses in his home's solar power uptake due to solar obscuration (the blocking of the sun from the ever more aggressive and obvious jet aircraft spraying of atmospheric particulates), he began constant research, lab testing, and reporting on the climate engineering/solar radiation management issue. For over a decade, Dane has given data presentations on the climate engineering issue in hundreds of radio forums and public speaking awareness events, in addition to speaking and presenting data to many agencies and officials including the California Air Resources Board, the California Energy Commission, the Shasta County Board of Supervisors, Barbara Boxer's office, US Congressman Doug LaMalfa, and California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom (and his aids) in Lt. Governor's office at the California State Capitol.
The climate engineering atrocities occurring in our skies came to my attention when I began losing massive amounts of solar power uptake (on my off-grid residence) due to the jet aircraft spraying/dispersions that were rapidly increasing in frequency and intensity. After numerous lab tests confirmed the highly toxic climate engineering contamination was saturated in the air column and thus poisoning not just my region, but the entire planet. I was left with no alternative but to focus all my efforts and energies on this critical issue. I have never been politically minded, and have never before been an activist. I am a concerned father that feels I have a responsibility to my children (all children), and to the planet as a whole on which all life depends. Global climate engineering/geoengineering/solar radiation management is mathematically the greatest and most immediate threat we face short of nuclear cataclysm. I wish to express my deepest gratitude to all the attorneys that have joined this most critical effort, and my deepest thanks to all the activists who are dedicated to this most important fight for the greater good.
If we are to have any chance of exposing and halting the ongoing global climate engineering assault, awareness raising efforts must be continued and advanced on ALL fronts of the battle. Though the legal effort is an essential part of the overall effort, the pending legal action does not negate the need for all other credible awareness raising efforts to continue moving forward at the fastest possible pace. The pending US legal action, being prepared by the combined efforts of the legal team and GeoengineeringWatch.org, is not affiliated with any other groups, organizations, websites, or individuals. Any that wish to further support the attorney team can do so through the 100% non-profit fund here, all contributions are 100% tax deductible. We are rapidly running out of time as the biosphere implosion accelerates, we must all make every single day count in this all important battle for the greater good, all of our voices matter and are essential. There is only one way forward in this fight, to reach a critical mass of climate engineering awareness with the overall population, this effort will take every single one of us.

Pushing Back Against Climate Engineering, Canadian Lawsuit Is Filed

Dane Wigington
geoengineeringwatch.org
Legal action has been filed and is now underway in Canada that will greatly assist with the global effort to expose and halt the ongoing climate engineering assault against the planet and the entire web of life. For over a year GeoengineeringWatch.org has been communicating with and forwarding data to Canadian attorneys (in addition to the US team of attorneys we are working with) in the effort to get legal action in motion. This effort has now reached fruition, Geoengineering Watch wishes to express our most sincere gratitude to the attorneys in Canada (and the US attorneys) for their diligent and ongoing work in this most critical battle. Excerpts from the Canadian legal filing are below.
Geoengineering Watch Legal Team Moves Forward With Washington D.C. Public Relations Firm

Dane Wigington

Global climate engineering/solar radiation management programs continue to wreak havoc on planet Earth and the entire web of life in spite of the "official denial" of these ongoing programs. Numerous historical documents including extensive US Senate disclosures and presidential reports prove that worldwide weather modification (geoengineering/weather warfare) has been going on at a significant scale since the late 1940's. The list of known climate engineering patents is yet more confirmation of the atrocities being carried out in our skies. In an apparent effort to silence any potential disclosure on the completely illegal climate manipulation, a federal "gag order" has recently been placed on all National Weather Service and all NOAA employees. Over the last six months the tireless effort to organize solid legal action for the purpose of exposing and halting global geoengineering programs has progressed behind the scenes. Many dedicated attorneys and environmental experts have donated their time and energies to this all important effort. The current legal team includes 8 attorneys from the US, 3 attorneys from Canada. After countless conference calls, emails, and other extensive evidence and information organizing efforts, the team is moving solidly forward in preparation for legal action as we enter 2016.
With every passing day Earth's climate system continues to disintegrate. Though there are countless anthropogenic sources of damage to the biosphere and the climate system, the covert climate engineering programs must be placed at the top of the overall list. A rapidly increasing diversity of experts continue to testify about the threat posed by geoengineering programs. The initial funding to get the public relations wheels turning has come from "Stop Geoengineering MN, a registered non-profit organization that is a core part of the legal team. The team's current target goal for legal filing is mid year, 2016 (The Canadian attorneys may file sooner in Canada). Though the attorneys on the Geoengineering Watch legal team are personally committed to stop geoengineering, and are working at their own expense as consistently as they can for the sake of the greater good, some of the legal professionals are needed to focus full time on this critical battle. If this effort is to continue, financial support for the legal team and the public relations efforts will be critical. This call for support is for the "Stop Geoengineering Legal Defense Fund" alone. Contributions can be made directly into the non-profit fund. All donations are 100% tax deductible and 100% of all donations go directly and exclusively to the legal effort. Contributions to the non-profit "Stop Geoengineering Legal Defense Fund" can be made HERE.
Skies around the world are consistenlty sprayed with light reflecting toxic heavy metal aerosols as part of the ongoing solar radiation management programs
Earth and the entire web of life are at a crossroad. Of the all the ongoing forms of decimation to the planet, global climate engineering programs are mathematically the most destructive of all anthropogenic activities to the biosphere overall. No matter how dark the horizon is, if the covert and illegal geoengineering insanity can be fully exposed before those behind the programs are prepared for this to happen, we may yet have a chance to stop geoengineering. The credible legal filing alone will bring the desperately needed public awareness to this issue. Even if the legal action is eventually shut down (because of the potential "national security" defense being utilized by "official agencies"), that would still be an admission of the geoengineering reality. A critical mass of public awareness will still have been reached. Exposing and halting global climate engineering is essential if we are to salvage what is yet left of Earth's life support systems. If populations around the world fully understood what geoengineering/weather warfare programs have done to the biosphere as a whole, and to their own health, (without their knowledge or consent), a shock wave would travel around the globe. It would be nothing less than a paradigm shift. Anyone with insider information on covert climate engineering programs, that is willing to share this information for the greater good, can speak confidentially to an attorney from the team. Such a connection can be initiated by sending a message HERE. If we do not all come together in this effort now, then when? Time is not on our side. The Geoengineering Watch Legal Team effort is not affiliated with or connected to any other group, organization, or website, with the exceptions of "Stop Geoengineering MN.

Anti-Geoengineering Attorneys Give Updated Statement On Preparations For Legal Action To Expose Global Climate Engineering

On August 14th, 2015, there was a major event in Northern California that was organized for the purpose of exposing and halting global climate engineering programs that are decimating our planet and the entire web of life. Numerous experts spoke out at this event including attorneys, former government scientists, a former defense industry technician, former military personnel, a prominent Northern California Neurologist, and a CEO for one of the largest environmental and engineering consulting firms in the world. Approximately 1000 people attended this event. A team of 7 attorneys (5 from the US and 2 from Canada) are working together with geoengineeringwatch.org in the effort to put forward a legal filing against the ongoing covert climate engineering crimes. Two of the attorneys from that team are William Blackwell and Joseph Marman. In the short video below, William and Joseph give a brief statement to summarize the ongoing legal efforts. The emcee for this important event was John B. Wells, radio host for the highly acclaimed "Caravan to Midnight" show. John works tirelessly toward revealing the truth for the common good. His participation in the Northern California event was of immense benefit to the cause of exposing geoengineering. My deepest appreciation to John, to all the speakers that participated and shared their knowledge, to each and every activist that contributed countless hours, and of course our gratitude to all those that attended the event. Individuals came from locations as far away as Valdez Alaska and St. Louis Missouri.

A Letter To An Air Quality Manager From A Member Of The Anti-Geoengineering Legal Team

Air quality officials everywhere have failed to fulfill their legal obligation of informing the public about indisputable and verified health hazards relating directly to the toxic fallout from climate engineering. More and more facts are coming to light which further exposes what should be considered criminal complacency on the part of officials that have been entrusted with safeguarding public welfare. SInce at least 2008, volumes of test data proving the presence of toxic heavy metals in the environment has been presented to various California state and county officials who have to date done absolutely nothing to disclose the contamination let alone investigate it. The public is rapidly waking up to this situation and they are understandably extremely concerned and upset. A major event in Northern California on August 14th, 2015 will bring together numerous experts to give their testimonies on the climate engineering dangers. This event will bring much needed attention to this critical issue. Below is letter from a member of the anti-geoengineering legal team to air quality officials, it is an official invitation to the August 14th event.

The Push For Legal Action To Expose Climate Engineering

Dane Wigington
geoengineeringwatch.org
A battle cannot be successfully fought without an army of committed and qualified individuals that are working together. Such a movement is only possible when a critical mass of awareness is achieved. After many years of struggling to raise this awareness, the anti-geoengineering movement has now reached a level of awakening that has brought legal experts and other essential professionals into the fight on our side. Climate engineering is rapidly tearing apart the planet's life support systems and contaminating the entire biosphere. It is imperative that we expose and halt the climate engineering programs as fast as possible or we will soon have nothing left to salvage of our health or our once thriving planet. The conference call recorded below had nearly 300 participants and listeners at peak. Among the participants and listeners were attorneys and judges from multiple states, former government biologists, and the CEO of a major global environmental consulting firm. The primary purpose of the call was to answer questions relating to climate engineering for some of these professionals (who are the main participants in the conversation) and to arrange the connection of attorneys from different states which will take place in our follow-up private conference calls to begin in the following days. I have also recently had a 3 hour face to face meeting with an internationally recognized celebrity who has contributed his attorney to our fight. I will publish updates on our ongoing efforts as soon as it is appropriate and I am allowed to do so. It is important to remember that a primary goal of legal proceedings is to force media coverage of the geoengineering issue. My most sincere gratitude to each and every activist that has tirelessly helped raise awareness of the global climate engineering issue to the level that we have now achieved. The effort to sound the alarm needs to continue each and every day and in every possible arena. If we all march together in this battle, we may yet accomplish profound changes for the better even at this late hour. DW
