Atmospheric Fungal Spore Injection
7 May 2026 | ZEROGeoengineering.com | WEATHER MODIFICATION POLICY Matters | 2024 article below discussing weather modification and geoengineering research, proposes dispersal of fungal spores as ice nucleating particles (INP) for cloud seeding, a proposed alternative to sulfur aerosols or artificial chemicals. Authors note potential adverse effects of fungal bioaerosols such as exacerbating respiratory problems and “potentially affecting soil microbiota, agriculture, natural flora, and water quality.” Regarding liability issues related to cloud seeding: “In conclusion, the difficulty in predicting and controlling the impacts of cloud seeding makes allocating liability difficult. International, federal, and state law fail to adequately address issues related to reemerging and useful cloud seeding augmentation technologies.”

Spores of many fungal classes such as Dothideomycetes, Agaricomycetes, Eurotiomycetes, Ustilaginomycetes, and so on have already been confirmed to be among the prominent biological ice nucleating particles in the upper atmosphere.
Thus, dispersing fungal spores into the atmosphere may raise the concentration of CCN, enhancing cloud formation. Spores can be launched using an aircraft…
ongoing research on weather modification for more than 50 years
Environmental and Health Risks: even though silver iodide is considered relatively low in toxicity, its accumulation in the environment can affect water quality, soil microbial diversity, soil content, and wildlife. Similarly, injecting large quantities of fungal spores into the atmosphere could pose health risks, particularly for individuals with allergies, asthma, or compromised immune systems because most fungal species are opportunistic. So dispersing spores at lower atmospheric levels may result in reducing air quality at the boundary layer; compromising the respiratory well-being of humans and animals”
…countries around the world, including Australia, China, France, Greece, India, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, and others, are conducting cloud seeding research or operations.
