I know it sounds like a crazy conspiracy,but a few weeks ago I was at a lacross game at the meadows in Gilford on a totally clear day.We noticed several planes leaving a thick trail from horizon to horizon when normal jet contrails evaporate right away.
Anyway,as many as 10 planes crossed over as far as we could see and the contrails expanded until the whole sky was a milky haze.
I googled it up and saw a lot of disturbing theories about spraying for climate control etc.
Just throwing that out there....who knows?
There are lots of articles on the conspiracy angle, but it appears to be a zombie theory (dead but still walking). Debunked here , on WikiPedia and Discovery Channel's Mythbusters. However, a related theory is that normal byproduct contrails impact the weather. There was a report this week that describes research theorizing that rerouting flights into zones where contrails don't last as long, will help reduce the human impact on climate change.

This is probably not the main cause of honey bees disappearing, but hopefully they will return or a cause will be found and addressed. Spraying, aerial or not, is a likely cause.
