Event Update For 2013-08-01

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2013-08-01 - Google-funded $60 million research ship to study 'dead zone' off British Columbia (Canada):

http://www.komonews.com/news/local/Google-funded-research-ship-to-study-dead-zone-off-BC-217979671.html
http://www.kimt.com/2013/08/01/google-funded-sea-research-vessel-sets-sail/

 

Quote: "A $60 million research ship funded by a Google executive was scheduled to set sail from San Francisco on Thursday, on its way to study a "dead zone" in the Pacific Ocean and other mysteries of the sea. The 272-foot vessel, Falkor, carries an unmanned submarine that will travel deep into the ocean off Vancouver Island to study an area where sea life dies each year from a periodic lack of oxygen, called hypoxia."

 

Quote: "After stopping to study the dead zone, the ship named for a flying creature in the movie 'The NeverEnding Story' will move on to study a submarine volcano, the Axial Seamount, about 300 miles west of Oregon. A microbiologist will study the tiny organisms living for millions of years inside fissures in the volcanic rock, and another scientist will study viruses that have adapted to the unique habitat."

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20130802-40326-GBR

Quote: "The Marine Conservation Society (MCS) is urging people to report sightings of jellyfish, which act as a barometer of the seas, as part of its annual national jellyfish survey. Jellyfish appear to be on the increase globally, which may be part of a natural cycle or linked to factors caused by humans such as pollution or over-fishing."

Note: Jellyfish reproduce better in warmer waters, so as the waters of the Earth warm, there will be more jellyfish. As they point out, jellyfish populations worldwide are already on the rise...

2013-08-01 - Unknown 'disease' wiping out paddy fields in Ukhrul District (India):
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20130801-40317-IND

Note: Paddy fields are low-lying areas where hydrogen sulfide will tend to accumulate when the wind isn't blowing it on. The first time this happened was in 2012, and now again this year. Maybe it's not a disease wiping the plants out, but a gas, possibly being absorbed into water and then poisoning the plants via contaminated water, or through the air, or both...

2013-08-01 - Greenland temp hits never-before-recorded level of 78.6 degrees Fahrenheit:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2013/08/01/greenland-soars-to-highest-temperature-ever-recorded/

Quote: "The Danish Meteorological Institute is reporting that on Tuesday, July 30, the mercury rose to 25.9 C (78.6 F) at a station in Greenland, the highest temperature measured in the Arctic country since records began in 1958."

Note: Yet we have also seen incredible cold-related events, like the mind-blowing 30 inches of snow that hit New York in late May, as mentioned in the 2013-05-26 update. To find anything comparable to that, they had to go back to 1816, the 'Year Without A Summer', which was caused by the volcanic eruption of Mount Tambora. So look around. Lots of volcanic eruptions - many! But also rapidly rising levels of methane in the atmosphere as methane deposits around the globe spew methane into the atmosphere. These are competing forces, with volcanic winter trying to drive down air temps, and increasing methane levels trying to drive up air temps. Which will win out? In the long run, it will be the methane. But we might in the short term see volcanic winter, or we might see extremes at both ends (which is what's happening now)...
