Event Update For 2014-07-29





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.

2014-07-29 - 300 tons of scrap metal bursts into flame at 1:21 AM at recycling center in Basildon (Britain):

http://www.mrw.co.uk/news/fire-hits-basildon-recycler/8666478.article
http://www.theenquirer.co.uk/fire-at-basildon-recycling-plant-takes-five-hours-to-extinguish/

Quote: "Fire crews were called to a fire at a recycling plant, crews reported that 40 percent of 300 tonnes of scrap metal was on fire.  The area alight measured approximately 30 x 30 metres and was 10 metres high."

Note: More scrap metal bursting into flame. Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron/steel. Nobody has ever offered up an alternative explanation for these fires where scrap iron ignites, because there isn't one. As most people are aware, scrap iron doesn't normally burst into flame. The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any methane or hydrogen sulfide in the air above closer to the ground, making explosions, fires and people and animals sickening and/or dying more common during those hours...
 



2014-07-29 - Three homes destroyed by explosion and fire at 5 AM in Henners Point in Lacombe (Canada):

http://globalnews.ca/news/1479640/large-fire-destroys-home-in-lacombe/

Quote: "Neighbourhood witnesses said they awoke to a loud bang early in the morning, and after racing outside to see what the commotion was, stood aghast as plumes of smoke and red-hot flames engulfed three houses."

Note: Somebody probably had some rusty iron/steel or electrified copper outside one of these homes, which ignited a methane and/or hydrogen sulfide plume, causing an initial explosion and igniting these homes. This area is surrounded by lakes and ponds...

2014-07-29 - Home destroyed by explosion and fire at 12:30 AM in coastal Federal Way (Washington), dog killed:
http://www.kirotv.com/news/news/federal-way-house-may-be-total-loss-after-fire/ngqHN/
http://q13fox.com/2014/07/29/fire-destroys-federal-way-home-couple-gets-out-safely-dog-dies/

Quote: "A homeowner in Federal Way woke up to the smell of smoke and what sounded like a loud explosion early Tuesday morning."

Quote: "While the cause of the fire is under investigation, the fire is believed to have started on the outside of the house and spread. The home is a total loss..."

Note: They probably had some rusty iron/steel or electrified copper out there, like a porch light, or electrical outlet, or landcaping lights, or a doorbell, etc, and a gas plume blowing in off the ocean ignited, causing the initial explosion and fire. These fires that start outside like this are very dangerous because they can can grow unnoticed and cut off routes of escape before smoke detectors indoors start going off. In a way, they're lucky that there WAS an explosion, else they might not have been alerted to the fire until it was too late...

2014-07-29 - Two fire trucks, ATV and fire station destroyed by fire at 4:30 AM in Millville (Canada):
http://www.firetruckblog.com/2014/07/30/canada-fire-trucks-destroyed-blaze-station/
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/millville-village-hall-fire-station-destroyed-by-blaze-1.2719856

Quote: "One of the village’s fire trucks was not at the station because it was serving in Nackawic after that town’s rigs were damaged in a fire a week before."

Note: So now, after two fires in two separate fire stations in one week, there is just one fire truck left for both towns. Hmmm, not looking good. This problem is affecting other aspects of existence too. For example, the only garbage truck went up in flames recently in coastal Rankin Inlet (Canada), mentioned in the 2014-07-21 update, so no more trash pickup there...

2014-07-29 - Jeep and car burst into flame at 12:30 AM while parked in Aberdeen (South Dakota):
http://www.aberdeennews.com/news/local/vehicles-fires-thought-to-be-intentionally-set/article_edc7424e-1375-56fd-a737-e54ed0c4a158.html

Note: The only reason they think this was arson is because both vehicles ignited separately; one did not ignite the other. Welp, that's how it's gonna go as the atmospheric contamination proceeds - when things first started, it was just one vehicle here or one vehicle there igniting. Now we're at the point where multiple vehicles are igniting in some events, and sometimes entire parking garages of vehicles are going to go up in flames, like the 37 cars that went up in flames before 3 AM the day prior in Lake St. Louis (Missouri), mentioned in the 2014-07-28 update. So, before I accept an arson proclamation, especially from someone who doesn't have a clue about what's going on, I need to see some REAL evidence, like a witness, or some surveillance footage, or some gas cans left lying around, or at the very least a motive. Absent ANY of that, as in this case, then arson seems very doubtful...

2014-07-29 - In separate incidents, two cars burst into flame while parked on same street, in Sacramento (California):

http://www.news10.net/story/news/local/sacramento-central/2014/07/29/2-cars-burned-across-street-from-each-other/13310743/

Quote: "The battalion chief at the scene said he suspected the cars were deliberately set ablaze since they were located so close to one another. An arson investigator was called to the scene and The Sacramento Fire Department confirmed around 12:45 p.m. that both fires were results of arson."

Note: The problem is, they CAN'T confirm it as arson unless they've ruled out accidental causes, like hydrogen sulfide's reactivity with electrified copper or rust, and they didn't do that, so they have no idea if this was arson or not. Witnesses, evidence, surveillance footage, motive? They have none of that AND they haven't eliminated accidental causes either. That's the shoddy work of incompetents there. You wouldn't trust an incompetent neurosurgeon to operate on your brain and you shouldn't trust anything incompetent fire investigators say either. Also see the RV that burst into flame at 6:45 AM while parked in Sacramento. So that's three vehicles that burst into flame while parked in Sacramento on this day. I wonder what they're gonna say when it's 20 vehicles, or 100, or 500. 'Packs of invisible arsonists are rampaging around burning everything and we're helpless to stop them!' These fire investigators are becoming quite a joke!

Note: Fire officials have warned people for decades not to go back into a burning home for anything. That was always good advice, but now, with fires that may involve hydrogen sulfide - which can knock you unconscious virtually instantly - it is even more dangerous than it has ever been. What if a loved one or a beloved pet is still inside? Well, I don't know what to say there - horrible choice, your call. It won't do them any good if you die too though. For anything else - like a freaking cellphone - it's way safer to stay outside and let it burn. Cellphones, unlike loved ones and pets, are easy to replace...

2014-07-29 - Small plane makes emergency landing at beach in coastal Miami (Florida), engine failure:
http://abcnews.go.com/US/plane-lands-florida-beach-injuries/story?id=24759310

Quote: "A small airplane made an emergency landing on a Miami, Fla., beach today just days after a similar incident on the Gulf Coast claimed the lives of two beachgoers."

Note: With more pockets of methane and hydrogen sulfide and probably carbon monoxide in the atmosphere, planes are experiencing engine failure regularly now. Combustion engines require a certain amount of oxygen in the air mix. When there isn't enough oxygen then the engine sputters and fails. You see this happen most often shortly after the plane takes off and starts gaining altitude, so it's probably methane causing the problem, since it's a lighter-than-air gas. If the air mix is volatile enough then there may be a 'flash fire' or an explosion, like the 'flash of light' that knocked a helicopter out of the sky and killed both occupants in Oklahoma City (Oklahoma), mentioned in the 2013-03-13 update...

  1. The fire in Montana's Bitterroot National Park may be a methane leak.

    More scrap metal just igniting for no apparent reason . . . and now a train goes up in flames (also previously unheard of or at least rare).

    Empty boats running in circles seems to be catching on!

    Methane hydrates in South Atlantic

    First evidence of widespread active methane seepage in the Southern Ocean, off the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia

    Highlights
    •An extensive active seepage area was discovered north of South Georgia.
    •High input of organic matter leads to high rates of formation and emission of methane.
    •Gas emissions were restricted to glacially-formed fjords and cross-shelf troughs.
    •Seepage might be more common in polar and sub-polar regions than previously thought.

    Abstract: An extensive submarine cold-seep area was discovered on the northern shelf of South Georgia during R/V Polarstern cruise ANT-XXIX/4 in spring 2013.

    Hydroacoustic surveys documented the presence of 133 gas bubble emissions, which were restricted to glacially-formed fjords and troughs. Video-based sea floor observations confirmed the sea floor origin of the gas emissions and spatially related microbial mats.

    Effective methane transport from these emissions into the hydrosphere was proven by relative enrichments of dissolved methane in near-bottom waters. Stable carbon isotopic signatures pointed to a predominant microbial methane formation, presumably based on high organic matter sedimentation in this region.

    Although known from many continental margins in the world’s oceans, this is the first report of an active area of methane seepage in the Southern Ocean.

    Our finding of substantial methane emission related to a trough and fjord system, a topographical setting that exists commonly in glacially-affected areas, opens up the possibility that methane seepage is a more widespread phenomenon in polar and sub-polar regions than previously thought.

    Clearly conditions are getting worse by the month now (i'd say "day", but i'm giving it the benefit of the doubt, as incidents you cite regularly here it can get far worse, with entire towns burning, or whole villages succumbing to H2S, and other scenarios that will show we're gettin' close to throwin' in the towel on industrial civilization).

    Another great, comprehensive report Jonny. Thanks.

    1. No, hadn't seen that, good find, thanks veddy much! Well then, I guess the Southern Hemisphere won't be spared. I never thought it would be but since George W. had bought those 100,000 acres in Paraguay, I thought maybe he knew something. Maybe he does, but it's not that the Southern Hemisphere will be spared, or at least not spared from the methane and hydrogen sulfide problem. Maybe Yellowstone will erupt. Being in the Southern Hemisphere might be pretty helpful if that happens.

    1. Yeah, that doesn't look good. Ya know, after that exploding road in Vietnam, and that hole that rose and then sank in Florida, and the scorched holes in Siberia...what if one of those holes opens up in a populated area and ignites beneath some sewers or gas infrastructure? Then I think you'd see what they just had happen here in Taiwan. It might've been hydrogen sulfide corroding pipes too, or a sinkhole might have cracked a pipe, or the sewers themselves might've just started exploding on their own. All kinds of possibilities and I doubt we'll be told the truth regardless, seeing as we haven't been told the truth at any point so far.
