Event Update For 2014-05-23





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.

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20140524-43867-CAN

Quote: "The process has been happening so quickly that it has been difficult for researchers to get samples - by the time a starfish in trouble has been spotted, it has frequently turned to goo. Adult sunflower sea stars in the affected areas of Howe Sound have already died, said Schultz. But baby starfish of the species seem to be surviving. 'So that's good news for them,' she said. But purple sea stars in areas of Howe Sound - such as near Boyer Island - are now succumbing to the syndrome in larger numbers."
