Cloud seeding
The reading and the lecture both discuss cloud seeding, a process of converting hail into rain or snow. In this set of materials, the article strongly postulates three pieces of evidence to support cloud seeding. The speaker, on the other hand, refutes the effectiveness of this method by raising questions and gainsays each of them.
First and foremost, the author strongly supports the conclusion made as a result of laboratory experiments. However, the professor states although it is true that by using silver iodide, we can convert pieces of ice into snow, but this can only be effective up to the laboratory. He explains this method is not practical at all since silver iodide prevents the precipitation of clouds. This will result not only in a dry spell but also crop damage due to lack of water. Moreover, the professor directly challenges this evidence by aiming that it is a bad idea for the rain system of the world.
Secondly, the professor is definitely not convinced by the reports obtained from different parts of the world. He describes that urban areas mean pollution, coming from automobile traffic and industries. It is surprisingly true that pollution particles respond well to clouds and seeding chemicals, but this process is only limited to urban areas. Besides, this process might not work in an unpolluted region, for instance, in rural areas. This claim refutes the author's implication of evidence from Asia.
Ultimately, the article wraps its arguments by asserting the hypothesis of local studies. The professor, in response, thinks that the authentification of this study is not convincing at all. The research indicates that cloud seeding not only affects the specific area but also the surroundings. He directs that in previous years the reduction in crop damage is not because of cloud seeding. In fact, it is because of the variation in climate. So, it can be concluded that Cloud seeding is not the real reason at all.
