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.staradvertiser.com/breaking-news/noaa-mass-die-off-at-marine-sanctuary-off-louisiana-texas/
Quote: "Divers from the motor vessel Fling 'were stunned to find green, hazy water, huge patches of ugly white mats coating corals and sponges, and dead animals littering the bottom of the East Flower Garden Bank, a reef normally filled with color and marine life,' wrote Steve Gittings, chief scientist in NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries."
Quote: "The divers alerted researchers, who found 'unprecedented numbers of dying corals, sponges, sea urchins, brittle stars, clams and other invertebrates on large but separate patches of the reef,' the report said."
Note: Those ugly white mats sound very suspiciously like bacterial mats of the ancient anaerobic type that produce hydrogen sulfide, which would then immediately begin killing oxygen-using life, starting at the sea floor, which is where this is occurring...

Quote: "It’s not clear what part of the balloon hit the lines, spokesman Robert Sumwalt said. It’s also unclear whether the fire that broke out on the balloon happened before or after the collision, Sumwalt said."
Note: So the fire could have begun before the crash. However it happened, this was the worst balloon disaster in US history and one of the worst balloon disasters in the world...

Jesse Gavic strapped into his flyboard, attached to a personal watercraft driven by brother Caleb Gavic, and headed for the burning boat. After reaching the boat, it only took about two minutes for Jesse Gavic to extinguish the fire using the water propelled from his board. The people on the boat jumped out and were picked up by a pontoon."
