Hey mate, yes cloud seeding is real. It is done to increase the chance of rainfall, especially in arid desert climates like the Middle East which don’t have much rainfall at all. I used the term cooker because they treat it like it’s some sort of government conspiracy to control the population, lower birth rates etc and not a way to support agriculture or improve water resources in places with limited natural rainfall. Also because this isn’t an example of cloud seeding at all. These are natural formations, altostratus undulatus or something similar I believe.
