Burkhardt, Origin Acoustics Back Nevada Cloud Seeding Project

Origin Acoustics and its co-founder, Jeremy Burkhardt, announced $25,000 in funding for a water conservation project in Red Rock Canyon, outside Las Vegas, where Burkhardt resides. Origin is working with Save Red Rock Canyon and the Desert Research Institute to fund a cloud seeding program designed to augment precipitation in the Spring Mountains to replenish aquifers within the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, the company said Friday. The “Make It Rain” campaign has a goal of raising $150,000. Save Red Rock and DRI will host a webinar on cloud seeding Thursday at 1 p.m. EDT.
