Event Update For 2016-08-31

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

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.dailynews.com/health/20160831/toxin-known-to-kill-dogs-within-30-minutes-found-in-several-california-lakes-rivers

Quote: "Out of the more than 30 bodies of water where dangerous algae toxins have been detected this year, anatoxin has been found in at least two rivers and five lakes, including Lake Shasta in Northern California and Lake Elsinore in Riverside County, Anderson-Abbs said. It’s one of several toxins produced by cyanobacteria, commonly known as blue-green algae, and has been linked to dog deaths across the country. But because anatoxin is not as prevalent as microcystin, another algae toxin that causes skin rashes and primarily affects the liver, finding it in several California water bodies was a little unexpected."
