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.

Bleh, my significant other's dad just died. Bad news on its own (he was a great guy), but now she's gotta fly to/from the funeral. Gonna be sweating bullets this week! And if you were wondering, nothing suspicious - he was almost 90 years old, had cancer, was in hospice care, and it looks like he died peacefully while zoned out on morphine. He was a WWII veteran, fought in the Philippines, a member of the 'Greatest Generation'. The world is a worse place without him in it.
ReplyDeleteSorry for your loss Jonny. i'm beginning to think anyone dying these days is LUCKY to get out before the real ugly collapse happens (possibly this fall or early next year, according to some). At 90, he had a long life, which most won't get to experience going forward.
ReplyDeleteHe's in good company.

Texas teen dies of rare brain-eating amoeba infection

A Texas teenager who contracted a rare brain-eating disease after swimming in a lake about 70 miles (110 km) north of Houston has died, according to his family and local media.
The 14-year-old Michael Riley Jr., a junior Olympian and honor student, seemed to have contracted the disease after he went swimming on Aug. 13 with his track team, his father Mike Riley told KTRK earlier this week.

Damn, another brain-eating amoeba case! I honestly do not ever remember reading about that happening to anyone when I was younger. True, part of that time there was no internet, but we still had TV and newspapers and telephones, and somebody's BRAIN being eaten by AMOEBAS would have made the news. So this seems to be something new, and definitely so in terms of the number of people getting their brains eaten. Do they have warning signs for that ready yet? Like a silhouette of a human brain with some kind of bug chomping into it and a bite taken out of the brain, that would convey the idea. Hey, just thinking ahead to the future...!
ReplyDeleteWhat future? Everyone is preparing for a future that won't be there.

Uh-oh, Canada. China Pales as a Risk to U.S. Growth
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-08-28/uh-oh-canada-china-pales-as-a-risk-to-u-s-growth
Canada counts for 19 percent of total U.S. exports, followed by Mexico at 16 percent, each more than double China's 7 percent share. And the Canadian dollar is sliding much faster: It has fallen about 12 percent against the U.S. dollar since the start of the year, while China's yuan has dropped just about 3 percent.
The Great Unwind, China Begins Dumping Treasuries
http://www.sprottmoney.com/blog/the-great-unwind-china-begins-dumping-treasuries-nathan-mcdonald.html
It is common knowledge, that China has been propping up Western economies over the last decade and longer, it is common knowledge that China has the ability to wipe out the US dollar in one quick motion, by dumping their treasuries on the market.
What is not common knowledge are the recent events that have unfolded behind the scenes in which China has begun this very process.
On August 11th, China unexpectedly devalued the Yuan. This came as a shock to the markets, which saw the currency rapidly plummet by 4% and would have continued to do so if not for the extreme intervention of the Chinese Plunge Protection Team.
Since that time, they have been actively and directly engaging in the Forex markets, where they have propped-up the Yuan and artificially maintained their fix with the US dollar.
How did they do this you ask? By selling US treasuries. That's right, it is being reported, that in the past two weeks alone, China has sold over $106 billion worth of treasuries! But this isn't all, since the start of this year, China has sold an additional $107 billion worth of treasuries!
You read that correctly, not only is China accelerating their dumping of US treasuries, they have hyper-accelerated this process in the last two weeks, dumping almost as much as an entire year’s worth of US treasuries.
