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.airforcetimes.com/story/breaking-news/2016/06/02/thunderbirds-f-16-crashes-following-air-force-academy-graduation/85307094/
Quote: "One of the Air Force’s elite Thunderbird pilots crashed Thursday following a flyover for the Air Force Academy’s graduation ceremony. The F-16 was returning to Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado, shortly after the flyover when it crashed..."
Quote: "Air Force Academy sources said the F-16's engine appeared to fail, though the official cause remains under investigation."
Quote: "Two military planes went down on Thursday in coincidental unrelated incidents in Colorado and in Tennessee, and the pilot in one incident died, the U.S. Navy confirmed."
Note: Well, the crashes were definitely related by one thing: both planes were flying through an atmosphere that's being increasingly contaminated with hydrogen sulfide and methane, which is causing problems with planes. So maybe these crashes are not really all THAT coincidental...

Worst Jobs Report In Nearly 6 Years – 102 Million Working Age Americans Do Not Have Jobs
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/worst-jobs-report-in-nearly-6-years-102-million-working-age-americans-do-not-have-jobs
This is exactly what we have been expecting to happen. On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that the U.S. economy only added 38,000 jobs in May. This was way below the 158,000 jobs that analysts were projecting, and it is also way below what is needed just to keep up with population growth. In addition, the number of jobs created in April was revised down by 37,000 and the number of jobs created in March was revised down by 22,000. This was the worst jobs report in almost six years, and the consensus on Wall Street is that it was an unmitigated disaster.
The funny thing is that the Obama administration says that the unemployment rate actually went down last month. Almost every month since Obama has been in the White House, large numbers of Americans that have been unemployed for a very long time are shifted from the “unemployment” category to the “not in the labor force” category. This has resulted in a steadily falling “unemployment rate” even though the percentage of the population that is actually working has not changed very much at all since the depths of the last recession.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics claims that the number of Americans “not in the labor force” increased by 664,000 from April to May. If you believe that, I have a giant bridge on the west coast that I would like to sell you. The labor force participation rate is now down to 62.6, and it is hovering just above a 38 year low.
[don't worry, they'll figure out a way to keep the unemployment numbers artificially low]

Oil Train Derails, Spilling Crude In Columbia River Gorge
ReplyDeletehttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/oil-train-derails-columbia-river-gorge_us_5751fd62e4b0c3752dcdb896
A train carrying crude oil derailed Friday at the scenic Columbia River Gorge, spilling oil on the Oregon side of the river, which separates that state from Washington. At least one of the tanker cars burst into flames.
The derailment affected 11 cars of the 96-car train, Union Pacific spokesman Aaron Hunt said. It occurred near Mosier, a small town east of Portland, around noon local time.

New Federal Report Shows Dimock Water Was Unsafe to Drink After All
http://ecowatch.com/2016/06/03/dimock-water-unsafe-fracking/
Back in 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) made a startling announcement, shaking up the battle over fracking in one of the nation’s highest-profile cases where drillers were suspected to have caused water contamination.
Water testing results were in for homeowners along Carter Road in Dimock, Pennsylvania, where for years, homeowners reported their water had turned brown, became flammable or started clogging their well with “black greasy feeling sediment” after Cabot Oil and Gas began drilling in the area. The EPA seemed to conclude the water wasn’t so bad after all.
[I saw this at a huge anti-fracking rally in PA I was part of at the time. We screamed at the FDA - YOU DRINK IT!]
“The sampling and an evaluation of the particular circumstances at each home did not indicate levels of contaminants that would give EPA reason to take further action,” EPA Regional Administrator Shawn M. Garvin said in a press release.
Now, a newly published report by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), part of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), puts EPA’s testing results into an entirely new light.
The water was not safe to drink after all, the ATSDR concluded, after a lengthy review of the same water testing results that EPA used back in 2012.
[A child could have told you this, THE FUCKING FDA WAS BRIBED BY THE FRACKERS]
The new report lists 10 contaminants, including arsenic, lithium and 4-chlorophenyl phenyl ether, that are “chemicals of health concern,” at the levels found in Carter Road wells, found that five homes were at “immediate risk of fire or explosion” because of methane in their water and another dozen showed lower, but still worrisome, levels of methane and found that the water was laced with elevated levels of metals, salts and total dissolved solids.

Yeah, I'd say be very careful who you trust about things, especially businesses and government agencies - who knows whose hand is in whose pocket and anyone could be lying about anything. If the lying makes you lose your life, well, if that'll help 'keep the calm' then they might be willing to have you pay that price.
