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://www.examiner.com/article/portland-woman-s-dog-dies-hours-after-walking-through-local-park
Quote: "The vet couldn't say whether it was poison or an allergic reaction, but she did say that her own employee's dog died right after walking in the very same park."
Note: Quite a few people have been found dead in rivers in Portland too, and a woman, 26, dropped dead while walking on a path near the Willamette River in Portland, mentioned in the 2015-02-26 update. A man, 48, was found dead on the banks of the Willamette River in Portland on that same day too. This same thing - foaming at the mouth and dying - has happened to other dogs after walks in other parks too.
So some hydrogen sulfide blows by, some of the molecules 'stick' - via adsorption - to matter, like sticks, leaves, grass, fences, the ground, etc. Then people walk their dogs in that area. The dogs may sniff some of those molecules off whatever they've adsorbed onto, or they may get poisoned via skin contact, especially through the skin on the pads of their feet, and any water in the area may also be contaminated. The dogs may just sicken if it's light poisoning, or they may die, sometimes foaming at the mouth, just like all the people who've mysteriously died after foaming at the mouth in recent years. So if you take your dog for a walk, and your dog foams at the mouth and dies, then it probably got poisoned. You'll never know whether matter has been contaminated or not, so it's probably best to assume that everything, especially everything outdoors, has been contaminated. If you're wrong, no big deal - you took some unnecessary precautions. But if you assume matter ISN'T contaminated and you're wrong, then death may be the consequence...

Things are ramping up. As has happened to me, the blogger of Seemorerocks (Robin Westenra) tried to post BASIC INFORMATION on Robert Scribbler's blog (Robert Marsden Fanny) and was CENSORED. He goes off about it in his post today.

Discussing the actions of Mr. Robert Marston Fanny
The following may seem bit harsh but I am offended at the actions of the author of the Robertscribbler blog. He has proved himself to be worthy of the editors of any of the corporate media.
I am usually slow to anger when it comes to messengers of abrupt climate change but when I do get angry I am slow to forgive.
If you want to say this is personal you are right - partially. But mostly not. This is about the refusal to carry, comment on, or even criticise what I regard as important information for every person in the South Pacific, South America and Australasia.
I am both mystified and deeply offended.
'Robertscribbler' spits in the face of the people of the Southern Hemisphere
Robert Marston Fanny censors all reference to a "hot blob" in the South Pacific
[A huge heat blob 5 times the size of the “hot blob” off North America - that's some serious heat, right there]
[concludes]
Mr Fanny can continue to produce his nonsense about saving civilisation (as in today's “A Harbinger of the End of the Fossil Fuel Era” — Coal Production, Exports Plummet as Peabody Energy Declares Bankruptcy) the day after producing two very good articles. I am perfectly willing to overlook that and refrain from criticism in the interests of the greater good.
His act of petty censorship and spitting in the face of the people from the South I am NOT willing to forgive, now or in the future.

Thanks! Hadn't found that article about the southern hemisphere ocean 'hot blob'. You mentioned it the day before, but without a link, and I was being a lazy-ass and then I spaced it out, but I did want to mention it, and now there the link is in that article, so bam, problem solved. Also, yikes, that looks scary!

Hmmm, these hailstorms with big hailstones sure seem to be getting more common. Not sure where that might end. What if we start seeing storms dropping a bunch of those 66-pound hailstones? That'd make for some serious mass destruction.
ReplyDeleteYep. The weather is becoming chaotic.

http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/u-s-economy-2016-3-classic-recession-signals-are-flashing-red
Those that were hoping for an “economic renaissance” in the United States got some more bad news this week. It turns out that the U.S. economy is in significantly worse shape than the experts were projecting. Retail sales unexpectedly declined in March, total business sales have fallen again, and the inventory to sales ratio has hit the highest level since the last financial crisis.
6.9 magnitude quake strikes western Myanmar, shakes neighboring countries
https://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/2016/04/14/6-9-magnitude-quake-strikes-western-myanmar-shakes-neighboring-countries/
A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck Myanmar on Wednesday, causing tremors around the region, including in neighboring Bangladesh where scores were reported injured in stampedes and buildings were damaged. The quake, which took place at a depth of 134 kilometers (83 miles), hit some 400 kilometers northwest of Myanmar’s capital Naypyidaw, according to the US Geological Survey (USGS), and was also felt in parts of India and China. There were no immediate reports of casualties, although the region where the earthquake hit has poor communications infrastructure like many of Myanmar’s outlying provinces.

Volcanic activity report for April 13
https://theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com/2016/04/14/volcanic-activity-report-for-april-13/
Santiaguito (Guatemala): A violent explosion associated with a partial dome collapse occurred Monday morning at the Caliente dome. The eruption generated an ash column that rose several kilometers and a pyroclastic flow that traveled through the canyon draining from the dome complex to the SE.
Fuego (Guatemala): Another paroxysm (the 6th this year so far) started last night at the volcano. Intermittent strombolian explosions merged into lava fountaining reaching 400 m height and increased lava effusion has been feeding a lava flow that had reached 2 km length into the Las Lajas ravine (SE side).
Nyiragongo (DRCongo): The secondary vent remains active, a recent visit (on 8 April) at the volcano showed. Lava continues to be erupted from the side vent on the eastern crater floor and occasionally still cascades into the main pit with the active lava lake

There must be undeniably a logical and scientific explanation for the bizarre phenomenon of water and fire together. [they haven't heard, Jonny]
Is gas or oil mixed with the water?
This reminds me of videos recorded in heavily fracked areas in the United States, where residents can ignite their drinking water.
