Sulfate geoengineering with surface emissions of carbonyl sulfide

LINK_PubChem

Absent public safety regulations or ethics, the deliberate destruction and war on our health and environment is funded and supported worldwide by universities, governments, corporations and private individuals.

President Eisenhower stated in his 1961 farewell address that the public must be aware and stay alert for the “danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.”

Public oversight and laws to immediately prohibit the intentional poisoning of our atmosphere, land, air, water, and health by geoengineering activities and other moral hazards are essential to protecting all life of Earth.  -JD

Conclusions


We have presented here the results of a modeling experiment with the aim of producing an optically thick cloud of sulfate aerosols in the stratosphere without the injection of sulfate precursors directly in the stratosphere, but rather using increased surface emissions of carbonyl sulfide (COS). The low reactivity of COS in the troposphere, where it is not reactive and where it is predominantly absorbed by some soils and by plants, allows for a large portion of its emissions to reach the stratosphere,where it is turned into sulfate aerosols by photo-dissociation and oxidation.”

“Sulfur dioxide appears as a colorless gas with a choking or suffocating odor. Boiling point -10°C. Heavier than air. Very toxic by inhalation and may irritate the eyes and mucous membranes. Under prolonged exposure to fire or heat the containers may rupture violently and rocket.”

Carbonyl sulfide is a colorless, poisonous, flammable gas with a distinct sulfide odor. The gas is toxic and narcotic in low concentrations and presents a moderate fire hazard. Under prolonged exposure to fire or intense heat the container may rupture violently or rocket. It is used in the synthesis of organic thio compounds.”  LINK_PubChem
