Using technology to control the weather sounds like the exclusive domain of comic books and science fiction, but it’s happening in reality, both in the US and in China.(http://www.cchange.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/PeterWilliams-138x150.jpg) This week on Sea Change Radio, host Alex Wise (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Wise) talks with Kathryn Flagg, whose recent article in Orion Magazine (http://www.orionmagazine.org/) discusses the practice of cloud seeding, including its history, how it helps, and how it may harm. As the projected impact of climate change includes widespread fresh water shortages, people are searching for answers. Of equal importance, though, are our practices around water use and conservation. A little later in the show we hear from Peter Williams, the Chief Technology Officer for IBM’s Big Green Innovations Unit (www.ibm.com/green). He tells us about how a smarter design in our water meters can help advance more conscientious consumption of the earth’s most precious resource. Alex Wise clean
