The post stated this: “Senate President Tito Sotto: I’m proposing Cloud Seeding action in the #TaalVolcano affected areas and not wait for the rain. I sent word to the executive dept through Bong Go and ES Medialdia. Water solves the ashfall debris.”
Apparently, this did not sit well with a netizen. Twitter user @jerichorayel, who appeared to be an educator, contradicted the statement of the politician with scientific facts. His post stated:
“Naituro ko ito sa STS pero hindi ako ang best person to tell you.
In case you want to know:
Rain + volcanic ash = wet volcanic ash (Lahar)
Rain + NOâ‚“ or SOâ‚“ = acid rain
Nitrogen and Sulfur oxides are emitted during volcanic activities.”

The Senator insisted that “Now is the time for cloud seeding in the Taal Volcano affected areas!” However, the netizen continued to elaborate on reasons why cloud seeding won’t help alleviate the situation but worsen it.
