Abstract

Planned weather modification is a potentially significant phenomenon being introduced in many area of this and other countries. Evidence is beginning to accumulate suggesting that where organized resistance persists over a period of time, weather modification efforts are in fact halted. The paper briefly outlines the history of weather modification in the United States; research findings on the social aspects of weather modification (especially focused on acceptance/rejection processes); and decision processes, including legislative regulation and decision roles. Tentative social scientific evidence suggests that one condition of public acceptance of this technology is public involvement in the adoption decision process.
