Bill Gates’ atmospheric spraying of limestone
powder, he states, to lower global temperatures
MEMO
TO: Bill Gates
DATE: December 17, 2021
FROM: D. Becker
SUBJECT: Health crisis. Pulmonary problems worse from chalky dust in atmosphere. Sharp rise in hospitalizations in Maryland. Also rising temperatures. Potential aviation hazard.
Please stop spraying limestone powder in atmosphere. Respiratory and other problems from particulate. Sharp rise in temperatures after spraying. Much above-average temperatures in December. People in shorts, mowing grass, still using air conditioning mid-December in Maryland. This is after dispersing millions of tons of limestone powder from hundreds of planes flying over my home and surrounding area in a roughly north-south direction for weeks. The cause and effect is obvious.
Part of the cost/benefit analysis: The energy it would take to pulverize millions of tons of limestone; the energy it would take to load millions of tons of ground stone into planes; the energy it would take for thousands of planes to fly at an altitude 3.5 km for millions of hours, likely remotely controlled, to spread powder in the earth’s atmosphere.
Since the army of planes continually streaking across the sky Monday through Friday are barely visible, they are not at an altitude of more than 3.5 km. David Keith at Harvard University misrepresented in stating that the chalky dust would be dispersed at an 18-20 km altitude and that it would be a tiny amount, creating an impression that the dust dispersal would be innocuous. Also, the statement that the powder is not toxic is not true. This powder-spewing project is sneaky in that pulverized calcium carbonate is translucent, invisible in the air but for looking a little dusty. What appear as condensation trails are not normal looking contrails.
Britannica.com>Science>Chemistry: “The most important calcium compound is calcium carbonate, CaCO3, the major constituent of limestone, marble, chalk … It will also absorb water, converting itself into calcium hydroxide and releasing heat in the process.”
(Water left behind from jet exhaust. Water in clouds. “There is always water in the atmosphere… even clear air contains water.” – a quote from usgs.gov>science )
Mr. Gates, your venture to lower temperatures is more likely heating the atmosphere, all the while putting a health hazard into the air!
And if one cannot lower temperatures in the shorter days of sunlight, the strategy has no efficacy whatsoever.
DUST HAZARD TO AVIATION quotes:

Airborne dust and volcanic ash particulates ingested by aircraft gas turbine engines can have deleterious effects on engine performance and function…

The effect of the dust upon both the erosive wear of components inside the aircraft gas turbine engine and changes in the essential performance characteristics of the engine has been shown.
www.semanticscholar.org/paper/The-Effect-of-a-Dusty-Environment-Upon…
Operating gas turbine engines in dusty conditions e.g., from unpaved runways, adversely affects their operation, decreasing engine performance and, in some cases, jeopardizing flight safety.
Do mechanics who maintain planes know that extra oversight and maintenance should be augmented due to the ridiculous amount of unnaturally occurring stone dust being spewed in the atmosphere at 3.5 km? Although the dust is briefly airborne in a clear sky, maybe a day or two, portions of dust are snagged in the water vapor and ice crystals of clouds.
Logic. Considering the magnitude of the massive sun’s power, the massive earth, the space surrounding these spheres, if ground limestone is sprayed into the atmosphere to the extent that it is to block/reflect sun rays, how much of an effect would it have on the delicate membranes of the nose, throat, bronchi, bronchioles, and eyes when the limestone powder falls into the air people breathe. Your project is mimicking the effects of a hazardous industrial occupation, without the public aware, maybe not connecting the dots. I have been suffering for a long time and I only figured it out two weeks ago and I am perceptive and well read. Unsuspecting and unknowing, people are suffering from your tons of powder dispersed in the atmosphere for months. The powdered chalk in the sky and in the air is invisible. A busy person would never suspect such dust-spewing activity. And you have been continuing this folly knowing people are struggling with the symptoms of COVID!
Calcium carbonate is TOXIC when it is inhaled. AIR QUALITY INDEX MEASURES PARTICULATE MATTER FOR A REASON! The only other Index component is an ozone measurement which is very low except in the summer and when there are wildfires.
QUOTES: “Fugitive dust emission from limestone extraction areas is a significant pollution source. Effects: Inhaling dust may cause discomfort in the chest, shortness of breath, and coughing.”
“Calcium carbonate contains crystalline silica in varying amounts … Repeated and prolonged occupational exposure to calcium carbonate dust containing silica may cause silicosis.”
“Some particles less than 10 micrometers in diameter can get deep into your lungs and some may even get into our bloodstream. Of these, particles less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter, also known as fine particles or PM2.5, pose the greatest risk to health.”
“Mineral dust airway disease is a general term used to describe complications due to inhaled mineral dust causing fibrosis and narrowing of primarily the respiratory bronchioles. It is a part of a group of disorders known as pneumoconiosis which is characterized by inhaled mineral dust and the effect on the lungs.”

After reviewing the above linked website, no one who is honest would sanction your limestone dust project.
Common sense. The harmful effects, physical and psychological, break down a person’s resistance to disease.
I have found the limestone dust to irritate and cause discomfort to my eyes, throat, causing coughing, sore throat, loss of voice or raspy voice, frequent clearing of throat and spitting out, frequent sneezing, nasal and throat dryness alternating with profusely clear dripping nose, difficulty breathing and sleeping. I need three heads to read the long list of books I would love to read but find it difficult to concentrate when I am having these unusual symptoms. Since the planes do not fly on weekends, by Sunday the air and symptoms are much improved and then Monday the madness starts all over again.
All these symptoms coincide with the near daily constant flying over my house and the surrounding area spraying your pointless chalky powder. Immersed in your dust, my home also becomes abnormally dusty, and the HVAC filter becomes abnormally coated with dust.
January 11, 2021 Forbes.com: “A Bill Gates Venture Aims To Spray Dust Into The Atmosphere To Block The Sun. What Could Go Wrong? … Widespread research into the efficacy of solar geoengineering has been stalled for years due to controversy. Opponents believe such science comes with unpredictable risks, including extreme shifts in weather patterns not dissimilar to warming trends we are already witnessing.”
Is it possible the severe, widespread tornadoes occurring December 10-11, 2021 mid country from Illinois south were caused or exacerbated by frequent atmospheric applications of limestone powder in the days leading up to December 10th?
Headlines:
Scientificamerican.com: “Rare December Tornado Outbreak Was a Worst-Case Scenario”
Washingtonpost.com: “The December Quad-State Tornado Was Exceptional”
12news.com: “Yes, It’s Rare For a Severe Tornado Outbreak to Take Place in December”
Nbcnews: “Tornado Outbreak in Kentucky Points to Rare Weather Conditions”
Does this also point to suspicion? Headline the following week after dust spraying:
December 15, 2021 Foxweather.com: “LIVE: Tornadoes reported in Midwest. A myriad of severe weather events, from destructive wind to potential severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, snow squalls, dust storms and record heat, are taking place across a wide swath of the nation Wednesday. Historic wind and severe weather impacts more than 85 million Americans.
How can a software developer and businessman unilaterally decide on the dispersal of millions of tons of limestone powder into the atmosphere seemingly interminably after atmospheric scientists opposed it a year ago due to “unpredictable risks” and “shifts towards warming trends we are already witnessing.”
Questionable motives. Spraying limestone powder in the eastern United States in December to cool the earth is as suspect as the timing of the arrival of COVID in the United States two years ago after a century without a pandemic. I remember you saying publicly approximately two years ago that a pandemic happens once a century. Really?
THE TRIFECTA OF OBESSION: Climate. Race. Coronavirus/Vaccinations. In each of these categories, attempts at improvements have made life worse for humanity.
No one is on this planet by choice, and humans have about 50 to 70 good years as adults, a blink in time. Soon after we return as mere elements of the universe. And everyone we know – friend, family, and foe – has the same eventuality. SO WHY THE MADNESS?
In recent years it has felt like an evil force over the earth, leading to a thought that maybe there is a Satan after all. But then as an atheist I remind myself there cannot be as there is no God, therefore no Satan, there are only evil behaviors. The late Carl Sagan rhetorically stated, “Why is God so clear in the Bible but so obscure in the world,” referencing I assume the absence of divine intervention in natural calamities as well as when people are subject to the hatred of people’s evil behavior. It seems the more people hate, the more they hate. Balanced happy people do not scheme and pay people to do their evil destructive bidding. Frankly, I wish Elon or Bezos would shoot these hateful, miserable conscienceless beings into space.
But there is wisdom in the Bible, and perhaps as well in other spiritual sources with which I am not familiar, regarding how people can live, and how to relate to people and the world around us. The simple universal adage of treating others like you would like to be treated is the hallmark of a peaceful, healthy, prosperous civilization for all. The golden rule encompasses traits of honesty, empathy, humility, fairness, reasonableness, being responsible, not controlling others, not being unduly entitled, not being revengeful, not being envious or jealous, being considerate and kind, not causing suffering, not being selfish, not being hypocritical, not being deceptive, not imposing destructive policies on others, and manipulating for gain.
For instance, we know that medicating an acute infection on an as-needed basis is superior to a murky repeatedly administered, inflammation producing, one-size-fits-all preemptive vaccination which declines in efficacy as a virus mutates, information which has been as aggressively suppressed as the vaccine and boosters have been promoted and, in effect, forced on people. Those with unbridled greed and drunk with power destroy lives. I have noticed that crazy and evil go together like soup and sandwich. Hitler comes to mind.
The hubris and evil that has been unfolding in recent years has been as shocking to me as it is to many people living in this country. The globalists’ push for a borderless political-economic-Medical Establishment pangea will not improve the life of anyone.
Other disingenuous motives. It is obvious that the quality of public education has declined because it is easier to control people who are naïve and uneducated. It is obvious that the goal of defunding the police is to create a vacuum to fill with a newly trained KGB-like force. It is obvious that the obsession with climate, race, gender, and COVID is meant to distract, destroy businesses, create hate, and wear people down.
Regarding race, I was astounded to recently learn that from 2000 years ago up through the 1960s, slavery was a fact of life in the Middle East. The despicable commerce and exploitation of Africans for a thousand years is revealed in the book “The East African Slave Trade: The History and Legacy of the Arab Slave Trade and the Indian Ocean Slave.” However, this history of brown skin slavers has been ignored by academics and media for the purpose of demonizing the United States as being the only country who has roots in this vile practice which was engaged in by white Europeans and early white Americans to present a reason for destroying America.
For the past two decades there has been propagandized prejudice directed towards white males and an increase in the feminization of government, e.g., stressing victimization, ignoring criminal behavior.
The conundrum regarding climate. When people talk about climate ad nauseam, it consumes all the attention and these important environmental topics do not get addressed: the ubiquitous plastic, a third of which is non-recyclable, the mountains of junk mail that pile up in mailrooms every day, the wild fires that pollute the air and warm the planet because of an absence of forest management and failure to prosecute for arson and carelessness, the management of the disposal of global waste/garbage emanating from 7.9 billion people, water quality, food quality, soil quality, deforestation, pesticides, herbicides, and the thousands of chemicals in modern life to which we are exposed, wood and other plant matter burning which is more air polluting than fossil fuels, overfishing, the trash that gets into waterways that marine life ingest or get tangled in, the breakdown of plastic in the ocean, traffic congestion, and noise pollution.
Many years ago, I joined Zero Population Growth which then became Population Connection, the subject no one wants to talk about but is a factor to consider regarding the environment in modern life. In recent history, the best policy supporting population control was the building of the wall on the southern border of the U.S. The wall acted as a control valve to the movement of populations. People migrate from densely populated areas to less populated areas. The regions from which a population moves become less populated and then more easily re-populate. It is obvious that breaking the valve and allowing hordes of people to come through the southern border with talk of receiving nearly half a million dollars is for the selfish reason of votes so that the destruction of America can continue.
I believe that the earth warming is due to many factors no one has considered publicly, including incineration of waste/garbage as landfills have filled, asphalting, parking lots, roofing, concreting, deforestation, and wildfires. There likely are reasons for global warming over which we have no control relating to the movement of the earth in relation to the sun. If fossil fuels are contributing to warming, and they probably are, they are only a tip of the melting iceberg. Your move towards nuclear power makes a lot of sense. Much was learned from and since Three Mile Island and midnight in Chernobyl.
Please be objective and do the right thing. The mid-Atlantic region is one of the most densely populated regions in the country so there is already a higher-than-average particulate matter count. And as you said three years ago, I believe based on the “Factfulness” book, “things are not that bad.”
