Thanks for all this information. It’s good stuff. I don’t think enough was included about the dangers of messing with the weather.

[NascarRacingFan]

I'd say playing with the atmosphere is not the greatest idea.

"Nuking hurricanes into submission was seriously considered" MERRICA!!!

[stevenlarratt]

Forget tech, just pick a day when i have to work outside and itll rain...

[scienceoutthere]

Excellent one! Unintended consequences pretty much are the rule here. In tornado alley in particular, the very processes and geographic features that allow supercell thunderstorms to form are also the reason it's not just another horse-latitude desert. As history has shown, the area is very prone to desertification. The only tornado-free Kansas may be a Kansas that can't grow food.

If you really need rain, e.g. in a drought situation, just try having a barbeque!

Why the hell do I care so much about the shirts? Oh well, I give this one a 10/10.

Manipulation of the Weather only helps to Destroy The Balance Of Nature, in my opinion.

[VeritechGirl]

WTH? Got a News notification about nuking hurricanes and CD has a vid on weather control! 😂❤️

[AbbreviatedReviews]

Great timing on this release with the whole "Nuke the Hurricanes" thing. If it wasn't already obviously a bad idea...

[joshcruzan]

Please keep at these for as long as you can. You’ve helped inspired me to go to school to follow my dreams. I can’t wait till I’m in the field and can sponsor you and many other teachers to help keep this kind of magic up.

[stephaniemartin]

Wow, what timing on Nuking a hurricane.

[fullmetaljacket]

I love your intro! Reminds me of an early 2000's Discovery Channel kind of thing.

[breakingaustin]

So glad to see an upload from you Paul! One of the few channels that I've seen every video by..

The idea to bring up cool water from the depth of the oceans to cool the surface would just be another human-made climate-change disaster.
"Lets cool the surface with temperatures from underwater" = "Lets heat up the underwater temperatures with those of the surface"
An idea that should be scrapped the moment it's thought about.

[seaskimmer]

They should play this channel at schools. I learn more from here in twenty minute bits than i ever did at school in 11 years!

We cannot “control” the weather, but we can manipulate it.

Interesting bit of trivia: Bernard Vonnegut is one of the main people who developed cloud seeding via silver iodide in the 1940s. The concept, and bad press associated with early utilization of the process as noted in this video inspired his younger brother, Kurt Vonnegut, in his book, Cat's Cradle, to conjure a fictional substance called Ice-Nine, as a plot device, to disastrous results.

9:28 "By the late 1950s, nuking hurricanes into submission was seriously considered." don't know why I find it funny! uncle sam's R&Ds
