Volkswagen accused of ruining Mexican crops with weather-altering 'hail cannons'
Local groups have accused the German automaker of causing a dry spell with hail cannons that shoot sonic booms into the air to prevent the formation of hail. The devices are used to protect cars parked outside the factory from dents caused by hailstones.
Following the complaints, Volkswagen has promised to reduce its use of the cannons at its Puebla factory.
