Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis promises to sign bill banning ‘weather modification’ activities
- On May 6, 2025, in Miami, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced his plan to sign a bill banning weather modification and another restricting water fluoridation.
- These bills follow Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo's November 2024 advisory cautioning against adding fluoride to drinking water over health risks.
- The weather modification bill, known as SB 56, prohibits injecting chemicals into the atmosphere to change weather or sunlight and imposes felony penalties for violations.
- DeSantis stated, "We're not going to do in Florida" geoengineering to block the sun, adding the state values its natural sunshine and public health.
- These laws, effective July 1, 2025, reinforce Florida's commitment to protect residents from unauthorized chemical exposure and preserve individual choice over environmental interventions.
