Event Update For 2016-02-14





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.

  1. Heh, we're wakin' up to fog, ice covered snow, and warming temps with heavy rain expected. This is gonna be some commute today. After that we go on a roller coaster of temps - up and down for about the next two weeks. Today, for example, it's supposed to be near 60 by three in the afternoon, with flooding very possible due to all the melting snow and heavy rain. Swell.

    Effects of human carbon emissions could last 10,000 years – ‘Our greenhouse gas emissions today produce climate-change commitments for many centuries to millennia’
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2016/02/effects-of-human-carbon-emissions-could.html

    [begins]

    At the rate humans are emitting carbon into the atmosphere, the Earth may suffer irreparable damage that could last tens of thousands of years, according to a new analysis published this week.

    Too much of the climate change policy debate has focused on observations of the past 150 years and their impact on global warming and sea level rise by the end of this century, the authors say. Instead, policy-makers and the public should also be considering the longer-term impacts of climate change.

    “Much of the carbon we are putting in the air from burning fossil fuels will stay there for thousands of years – and some of it will be there for more than 100,000 years,” said Peter Clark, an Oregon State University paleoclimatologist and lead author on the article. “People need to understand that the effects of climate change on the planet won’t go away, at least not for thousands of generations.”

    The researchers’ analysis is being published this week in the journal Nature Climate Change. [more]

  2. i awoke (at 5:15) to fog and warm air and the news that Rt. 202 (a HUGE artery) was closed in both directions due to downed wires. My wife had to take the good ol' Lincoln Highway (Rt. 30) to work, so she left at 7. i hustled up and left 90 minutes after her for my 10 a.m. class and got here an hour early since by then 202 was open and there was only light traffic. It's pouring rain now and the snow is rapidly becoming liquid.
