Black Nanoparticles” in the Journal of Biological Chemistry sounded the alarm:


                     . . .the intake of carbon black nanoparticles. . .caused an initial inflammatory response in lung cells. The surprising
                     results  came  when  the  team  discovered  that  these  nanoparticles  killed  macrophages—immune  cells  in  the  lungs
                     responsible for cleaning up and attacking infections—in a way that also increases inflammation. 64


                   Carbon black doesn’t produce cell death by apoptosis (the cell shrinking into itself) but by
               pyroptosis (bursting and spreading)—in other words, not by atrophy but by heated implosion.
                   The sulfur coating of soot means sulfuric acid (H SO ), the major component of acid rain,
                                                                        4
                                                                    2
               acidification of the oceans, the Greenhouse Effect, etc. The following admission is from 1998,
               though it is highly doubtful that it was actually the “first” detection:


                     Direct detection of total sulfuric acid (SA) has been achieved for the first time in the plume of a jet aircraft in flight.
                     The measurements show the same SA signatures for the case when SA was injected directly into the exhaust jet and
                     the case when sulfur was provided to the engine with the fuel. 65


                   Geophysicist J. Marvin Herndon, Ph.D., believes that the soot or carbon black posited by Jim
               Lee is actually extremely toxic coal fly ash, a perfect Welsbach material 10–100 microns thick,
                                                                           66
               the lightest of the coal ashes (“component of flowable fill”)  in plentiful supply. Captured by
               electrostatic  precipitators,  coal  fly  ash  is  an  anhydrous  combustion  byproduct  containing
               substantial amounts of silicon dioxide (SiO ), aluminum oxide (Al O ), and calcium oxide (CaO)
                                                                               2 3
                                                         2
               as well as arsenic, beryllium, boron, hexavalent chromium, cobalt, lead, manganese, mercury,
               molybdenum,  selenium, strontium, thallium,  and  vanadium—all  of which  are readily  released
               upon contact with water.


                     . . .Coal fly ash. . .when subjected to water renders many of its elements partially soluble in water. Some of these are
                     aluminum, barium, strontium, calcium, iron, magnesium, etc. These soluble elements can be measured in rainwater
                     and are in fact found in post-spraying rainwater. Coal fly ash has another advantage to the military — the elements
                     dissolved in atmospheric water make the water much more electrically conducting. This is important for movement by
                     electromagnetic means. 67


                   For  more  than  a  century,  air  pollution  on  the  American  East  Coast  has  been  practically
               synonymous with the industrial burning of coal (lignite) and 140 million tons of coal combustion
               waste translating to 70 million tons of fly ash per year, much of which is dumped into 1,100
                                          68
               unlined open storage ponds  around the nation contaminating the food chain and local drinking
               water with toxic heavy metals and radon. Despite the cancer, learning disabilities, neurological
               disorders,  birth  defects,  and  reproductive  sterility  that  arise  around  these  ugly  coal  ash
                                                                                  69
               impoundments, the EPA insists coal ash is a non-hazardous substance :

                     “Coal ash is basically soil,” says Tom Robl, a University of Kentucky geoscientist who serves as a director of the
                     American Coal Association. Not only is coal ash non-toxic, Robl says, it’s so safe that you could eat a brimming
                                                                                               70
                     bowlful without adverse consequences. “Feel free to eat as much coal ash as you want—it’s not toxic.”

                   In  the  same  article,  Forest  Service  biologist  Dennis  Lemly  begs  to  differ:  as  a  highly
               concentrated byproduct of burning coal, coal ash is hazardous. 71
                   In  2015,  Herndon  published  two  peer-reviewed  papers  on  how  pivotal  coal  fly  ash  is  to
               geoengineering and how deleterious it is to human health. The second paper, “Evidence of Coal
               Fly  Ash  Toxic  Chemical  Geoengineering  in  the  Troposophere:  Consequencies  for  Public
