Delhi to 'Play God'? City Trials Artificial Rain to Fight Killer Smog | India Today Explainer

This special report focuses on Delhi's plan to combat severe air pollution using artificial rain, a process known as cloud seeding. A key challenge highlighted in the report is that ‘without clouds there's no way they can actually build rain’. The project, a collaboration between the Delhi government and IIT-Kanpur, involves dispersing substances like silver iodide and salt into clouds from an aircraft to induce rainfall. While a recent trial flight was conducted, it did not produce rain due to low moisture levels. This method has been used in various Indian states such as Karnataka and Maharashtra, primarily to fight drought, and internationally in countries like China and the UAE for pollution control and enhancing rainfall. However, experts remain concerned about its effectiveness in Delhi's dry winters and the potential environmental impact of the chemicals used. #DelhiPollution #ArtificialRain #CloudSeeding #itwebvideos #AirQuality #Delhi #Pollution #WeatherModification #Smog #DelhiAirPollution #Environment Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
