Health,” was published on 11 August 2015 in the International Journal of Environmental
Research and Public Health and retracted twenty-two days later, followed by a scathing criticism
of the first paper in Current Science. Herndon’s third and most thorough paper, “Human
Environmental Dangers Posed by Ongoing Global Tropospheric Aerosolized Particulates for
Weather Modification,” was published in Frontiers in Public Health on June 30, 2016, and
retracted two weeks later.

Unlike the usual procedures employed to fairly address complaints about peer-reviewed and
published papers, neither of the two journals involved provided Herndon with verbatim copies of
the complaints made by the highly skilled disinformation team so he could refute them. The
implications one might draw from this are (1) Herndon is likely correct about coal fly ash being
the main aerosolized particulate, and (2) that officials are aware of the highly toxic nature of the
material being sprayed into the air we breathe and want to hide that knowledge from the public.
Herndon presents four sets of experiments to back up his thesis that hazardous coal fly ash is
“likely the principal aerosolized particulate sprayed in the troposphere by jets for
72
geoengineering, weather modification, and/or climate alteration.” Earlier, he’d compared water
leach from coal fly ash with rainwater and discovered eight elements in common, especially
aluminum/barium and strontium/barium ratios. Rainwater samples in San Diego, California
measured at least 30 percent aluminum, and in Chico and Alachua County, Florida, he had high
readings of barium, as well. He also compared outdoor dust collected in a HEPA (high-efficiency
particulate air) filter with unleached coal fly ash and discovered fourteen elements in common.
Herndon and Florida Public Health medical officer Mark Whiteside, M.D., M.P.H.,
demonstrated that snowfall can trap and bring down aerosolized particulates, like the co-
73
precipitation technique used in chemical processes. Upon melting, the snow releases the
trapped particulates that drain with the melt water into material that might underlie the snow,
