  4. Artificial rain is not really that effective and also not very well controllable. It has been applied successfully in isolated instances - and in China it did help to locally ease the effects of devastating droughts. However, there is no change in the long term weather patterns or climate. That has a number of reasons. Rain is not just over-saturated air out of which the water falls just like that. The process that leads to rain is fantastically complicated geochemistry. It can happen that you get 100% humidity but still: no rain. When the temperature drops you only get over saturated air and fog, yet still: no rain. And even if enough surface water is available, nothing happens. Only the evaporation stops. What you need is something to jumpstart the process. Silver Iodine is one possibility to artificially create condensation seeds, but then one constantly has to fly around with airplanes and mass-spray the atmosphere with silver iodine, which is not really that clever a solution.
