Conspiracy aside, isn't weather control the next step for our civilization? I mean, it would be incredibly beneficial to be able to effect weather patterns. We wouldn't need to relocate cities, we could elevate the production capacity of currently sparse regions, etc.
As a science nerd, I think it's a really neat idea.
I'm fairly certain that there are branches of the government or military that know exactly how to control the weather. But they are the last people who should have this power as the last thing they will use it for is anything beneficial.
It is nothing but another weapon for them to utilise.

I totally agree - if anything, we should be spending more effort on learning how to control weather

It would be cool, but knowing humans, it won't be the right way of going about it and we'll cause snowpiercer.

Snowboard powder all year round, yay!!!! Everyone's dead except for a caste system train and a crazy guy at the front... oh.

Yeah there's a more than bit of metaphor/social commentary going on in that movie.
With that said, you could board behind the train on a rope like a wakeboarder. That could be fun.
