Event Update For 2016-02-03





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.

2016-02-03 - Well leaking not just methane but large amounts of radioactive substances in Porter Ranch (California):
https://www.superstation95.com/index.php/world/849

Quote: "According to experts from the International Association for Protection from Ionizing Rays (AIPRI) in France, lethal levels of naturally-occurring radiation are coming out of the well and people will die from that radiation."

Quote: "If the leak, as it is now admitted, is actually 3 times greater i.e. 5.1 million m3 of effluent per day (3346 tons per day), with the same content per meter cube of radon 222 the natural radionuclides contained in the underground gas would skyrocket to 30.75 MBq (3.53 mCi) per second, of 470.69 GBq (12,72 Ci) per hour, 11.30 TBq (305.31 Ci) per day for an excursion in 90 days 1.02 PBq (27,48 KCi) a dispersion of 40.7 million Sieverts representing 8.14 million lethal doses by inhalation."

Note: Dire story there. One good thing is that radon has a short half-life of 3.8 days, so in 38 days there's only 1/1024th of the amount of radon around and in a year only about one-millionth of it is left. But then there's probably some uranium spewing out with the gas too, and that'll be around for a long time. And regardless of the radiation, that 'rotten egg' odor people are smelling is poison gas - either methyl mercaptan or hydrogen sulfide or both - so anyone smelling that is being poisoned, and that's what's causing the nosebleeds and pulmonary issues that people in the area have reported...

    Backyard in Kaliningrad swamped by unknown acid-green liquid
    http://www.sott.net/article/311609-Backyard-in-Kaliningrad-swamped-by-unknown-acid-green-liquid

    An apartment block backyard in the Russian exclave of Kaliningrad has been swamped with an unknown acid-green liquid. Pictures of it quickly spread across social media. Neither the tenants nor the authorities had any idea how it got there.

    The mysterious liquid was first noticed on Wednesday, witnesses say. It appeared near a manhole and took over almost all territory near the entrance of the apartment building.

    "It has no smell, it appeared yesterday, and it's still there. Everyone who stumbles upon it takes a picture of it," one of the tenants told Kaliningrad.ru.

    RealClimate: How likely is the observed recent warmth?
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2016/02/realclimate-how-likely-is-observed.html

    By Michael Mann

    With the official numbers now in 2015 is, by a substantial margin, the new record-holder, the warmest year in recorded history for both the globe and the Northern Hemisphere. The title was sadly short-lived for previous record-holder 2014. And 2016 could be yet warmer if the current global warmth persists through the year.

    One might well wonder: just how likely is it that we would be seeing these sort of streaks of record-breaking temperatures if not for human-caused warming of the planet?

    Precisely that question was posed by several media organizations a year ago, in the wake of the then-record 2014 temperatures. Various press accounts reported odds anywhere from 1-in-27 million to 1-in-650 million that the observed run of global temperature records (9 of the 10 warmest years and 13 of the 15 warmest years each having had occurred since 2000) might have resulted from chance alone, i.e. without any assistance from human-caused global warming.

    My colleagues and I suspected the odds quoted were way too slim. The problem is that each year was treated as though it were statistically independent of neighboring years (i.e. that each year is uncorrelated with the year before it or after it), but that’s just not true. Temperatures don’t vary erratically from one year to the next. Natural variations in temperature wax and wane over a period of several years.

    For example, we’ve had a couple very warm years in a row now due in part to El NiƱo-ish conditions that have persisted since late 2013 and it is likely that the current El NiƱo event will boost 2016 temperatures as well. That is an example of a natural variation that is internally-generated. There are also natural variations in temperature that are externally-caused or ‘forced’, e.g. the multi-year cooling impact of large, explosive volcanic eruptions like the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption, or the small-but-measurable changes in solar output that occur on timescales of a decade or longer. Each of these natural sources of temperature variation lead to correlations in temperature from one year to the next that would be present even in the absence of global warming. These correlations must be taken into account to get reliable answers to the questions being posed. [more]

    Landscape pattern analysis reveals global loss of interior forest
    http://phys.org/news/2016-01-landscape-pattern-analysis-reveals-global.html

    Between 2000 and 2012, the world lost more forest area than it gained, according to U.S. Forest Service researchers and partners who estimated a global net loss of 1.71 million square kilometers of forest—an area about two and a half times the size of Texas. Furthermore, when researchers analyzed patterns of remaining forest, they found a global loss of interior forest—core areas that, when intact, maintain critical habitat and ecological functions.



    "In addition to the direct loss of forest, there was a widespread shift of the remaining global forest to a more fragmented condition," explains Kurt Riitters, a research ecologist and team leader with the U.S. Forest Service Eastern Forest Environmental Threat Assessment Center and the lead author of a study describing the phenomenon, published in the January 2016 issue of Landscape Ecology.

    Forest area loss alone underestimates ecological risks from forest fragmentation. The spatial pattern of forest is important because the same area of forest can be arranged in different ways on the landscape with important consequences for ecosystem processes. In contrast to core areas of interior forest, non-interior forest edge areas are subject to impacts from invasive species, pollution, and variation in soil moisture, for example. [more]

    Madoff Whistleblower Warns of 3 New Ponzi Schemes, 1 Bigger than Bernie’s
    https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/madoff-whistleblower-warns-3-ponzi-180039992.html

    Almost 16 years after Harry Markopolos initially warned the SEC in vain that Bernie Madoff was operating a massive Ponzi scheme, Markopolos says he has found three more schemes that are multi-billion dollar pyramids of fraud.

    One of them, he told ABC News, is even bigger than Madoff's epic scam, estimated at fraud in the neighborhood of $65 billion.

    For now, Markopolos is declining to name names, because he wants the regulatory and enforcement agencies to get the information first.
