CHEMTRAILS: Are jet planes REALLY secretly spraying chemicals to REVERSE climate change?

MILLIONS of people are convinced a secret global conspiracy is taking place in front of our eyes on a DAILY basis.

The Chemtrails conspiracy theory is one of the most supported on Earth and counted the late pop legend Prince among its high-profile advocates.

At its most bizarre extreme, conspiracy theorists believe that the contrails which form behind jet aircraft are actually streams of toxic “mind-control” chemicals, which dilute before they reach the ground, leaving a gas we breathe in that keeps the general population in check.


Even former politicians in the UK are beginning to express concerns.

Dane Wigington, a solar energy expert and former employee of Bechtel Power Corp, now runs, a website set up to expose the “harmful” conspiracy which has had more than 22.3 million visitors.

He investigated why solar panels at his home lost power as aircraft contrails formed in the sky.

According to Mr Wigington, the contrails, or chemtrails, we see forming behind aircraft most days are carrying out geoengineering.


He said a system called "Solar Radiation Management” (SRM) was being used whereby scientists have tried to mimic the effects of a major volcanic eruption on temperature.

But where there are conspiracy theorists, there are conspiracy debunkers.

As much effort has been put into website, which aims to explain that aircraft contrails are just what we have always been told they are - condensation trails.

The official definition is that when the air a jet flies through is cold enough (around -40C or colder), the air and exhaust fuel will instantly freeze and spread out into the clouds that are seen.

The website states: “The chemtrail conspiracy theory seems to frequently misidentify ordinary contrails as “chemtrails” – some kind of secret spraying program.”

It says it has “tried to gather all the debunks of this evidence in one place”.

One of the main pieces of evidence the conspiracists claim is that historically normal contrails used to dissipate in a few seconds, or minutes, but the new chemtrails last much longer.

But the debunking site has produced evidence and photographs showing lingering contrails dating back to 1918 - long before the conspiracy was ever dreamed of.
