1649: Stay Alarmed
Solar Geoengineering Experiment, USS Hornet Salt Seeding
A secretive solar geoengineering experiment known as the CARE project began atop the USS Hornet in Alameda, California. The project uses specialized sprayers to shoot trillions of sea salt particles into the sky to brighten clouds and reflect sunlight. Critics express concern over the lack of public engagement and the potential environmental impact of "salting the sky" to combat warming.
