A San Francisco start-up, Rainmaker, conducted cloud-seeding experiments in Homer, Alaska, using planes and drones to disperse silver iodide into clouds. The company claimed the process produced 19 million US gallons of water in three hours. Cooper Freeman, the Alaska director of the Center for Biological Diversity, expressed skepticism regarding the safety of the silver iodide and the lack of downstream environmental monitoring.
