ICAN Petition to President Donald J. Trump. Stop Geoengineering Experiments on the American people. Maybe this one will do some good if enough people sign. ICANDecide and The Highwire have a large audience and some clout with Trump administration (posted 02/27/26).

ED NOTE
Petition requests you to provide:

- First and last name and email address. 
- Whether or not to receive additional information from ICAN.
- Optional donation after signing.

Sorry about that donation request! Still, it's worth your 5 minutes to read and sign the petition.

Petition to President Donald J. Trump

Stop Geoengineering Experiments on the American people

Preamble: President Donald J. Trump, we respectfully urge you to take decisive action to prevent any geoengineering experimentation or deployment that could threaten the American people.

Whereas: If deployed at scale, geoengineering would have profound, unpredictable, and potentially irreversible consequences—including disrupted weather and rainfall patterns, extreme drought, risks to planetary food security and ecological diversity, unintended warming or excessive cooling, stratospheric ozone depletion, greater exposure to air pollutants and ultraviolet exposure with associated health risks, acid rain, diminution of solar power systems, and geopolitical conflict over control of the global thermostat. These impacts would harm biodiversity, agriculture, and human health on a global scale.

Whereas: Unlike traditional technologies, geoengineering cannot be meaningfully tested without large-scale deployment. In effect, it proposes turning the Earth into a laboratory—locking humanity into dangerous outcomes that may be impossible to reverse and could worsen the very problems they claim to solve. America should never consent to policies that treat its citizens—or the rest of the world—as test subjects.

Whereas: We cannot afford to be distracted by the false promise of speculative, high-risk technologies pushed by special interests and global bureaucracies. The United States must lead with prudence, humility, and respect for natural systems—not reckless experimentation.

Therefore:We respectfully call on you to:

  1. Immediately prohibit federal funding, authorization, or participation in geoengineering research, testing, or deployment.

  2. Require full transparency and investigation into any proposed geoengineering activities that could affect U.S. airspace, land, or waters.

  3. Protect American sovereignty, public health, and environmental integrity by rejecting efforts by other nations to promote geoengineering.
