Chinese planes shoot rods into the sky
In a fight against the effects of climate change, China has begun cloud seeding
China is seeding clouds in its famous Yangtze River, in an attempt to fight the drought.
Planes have been shooting silver iodide rods into the sky, to trigger more rainfall.
Because of crippling climate change, and record heatwaves, the river had completely dried up in parts.
The Ministry of Water resources says the dry spell in the river is “adversely affecting drinking water security of rural people,” livestock and crops.
The pen-sized rods work by forming ice crystals in existing clouds to produce more rain.
Cloud seeding is a common practice in the country but some experts are concerned about its unnatural impact on the earths atmosphere.
