Conclusion
Cloud seeding is a new technology that can help improve weather conditions in dry areas, by increasing rainfall or snowfall, it provides water for agriculture, reduces hail damage, and supports water supplies in regions that need it. However, scientists are still studying its effectiveness and environmental impacts.
After doing the research on this topic I have a wider knowledge of artificial rain, and learnt useful information about different methods to produce rainfall.
I think that in the future this technology will be very important because global warming is a major issue and it also helps to control hailstorms, pollution, fog and droughts. So cloud seeding will be a solution to these problems.
