Cloud Seeding

The video discusses the growing issue of water scarcity due to low precipitation and overpopulation. It introduces cloud seeding as a scientific solution to stimulate rain production by using silver iodide to encourage water molecules in clouds to freeze and fall as rain. The process is used globally to increase precipitation for agriculture and prevent certain weather conditions. However, cloud seeding cannot create clouds and is limited in arid regions. There are controversies regarding its effectiveness and potential climate impacts, as it may redistribute rain rather than create new precipitation.

How does silver iodide contribute to the cloud seeding process?
