The bill seeks to amend the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act of 1994 by adding a new section, 5514b. This section explicitly prohibits individuals from intentionally injecting, releasing, or dispersing any chemical or apparatus into the atmosphere with the intent to influence weather patterns or alter the intensity of sunlight.
This legislative change aims to regulate activities that could potentially impact the environment and public health by controlling atmospheric interventions. The addition of this section reflects a growing concern over the implications of weather modification practices and their effects on natural ecosystems and communities.
