Talk:Lynmouth Flood

ive added material from Project cumulus

I do not know which article is most informative or complete Lynmouth Flood or Project Cumulus. They are both relevant. The Lynmouth entry also has a section on the flood.Johnvr4 (talk) 17:29, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Forbes article confirms cloud seeding with Sulphur possibly used in Lynmouth

There are several misrepresentations and issues in this article:

- The BBC Radio 4 documentary labelled as "conspiracy theory" is not included correctly in the link section - it is said "The theory was fuelled by a 2001 BBC Radio 4 documentary, which suggested that the events of 1952 were connected to Project Cumulus." This is the place where the link to the BBC article should be placed, otherwise one could think it is not available anymore and the position later on where the link is set is not very prominent or effective

- Instead the first links in the sentence where it is falsely proclaimed that the Project Cumulus is nonexistent do not contain the BBC link, just books you can not check

- This is tendentious

- Philip Eden's allegations were published in a small and not very important site - if they were of sense, someone bigger would have published them

- Other media like the famous German newspaper "Die Zeit" state that Project Cumulus is suspected to be a military program that caused the disaster

- He contradicts himself, saying "The storm which caused the 1952 disaster was not confined to the Lynmouth district. " while in reality "The East and West Lyn rivers, which drop rapidly down from Exmoor, were swollen even before the fatal storm." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1516880.stm

- In addition "Survivors tell how the air smelled of sulphur on the afternoon of the floods" is confirmed by many articles and research, including FORBES: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesconca/2017/06/22/seeding-the-clouds-should-we-mess-with-our-earths-climate/#5714e6a696cd

- "Seeding The Clouds - Should We Mess With Our Earth's Climate?" ... "Seeding clouds as a way to change weather began its history as a serious science during WWII, originally as a way to interrupt severe storms or to produce rain and snow."

 "After much research, we seem to have settled on a few possible methods for increasing the Earth's albedo. One, inject sulphur dioxide (SO2) into the stratosphere where it oxidizes to form sulfate aerosol particles which scatter incoming sunlight." --109.75.92.42 (talk) 22:35, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
