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.

Quote: "The SUV came to a stop near a backyard shed, but police said the vehicle did not appear to have hit the shed or the nearby house, and no one else was injured."
Quote: "It has yet to be determined if the vehicle was burning before the crash, Morey said."
Note: So the SUV didn't hit anything that would cause a fire, so it may have been on fire as it rolled down the hill...

2017-02-07 - Hydrogen sulfide wiped out life on Earth during the Permian-Triassic:
http://www.chemistryworld.com/news/ocean-chemistry-changes-triggered-earths-greatest-extinction-event/2500368.article
http://cosmosmagazine.com/palaeontology/marine-life-suffocated-during-end-permian-mass-extinction
http://ucalgary.ca/utoday/issue/2017-02-10/ancient-rock-record-sheds-light-ocean-responses-global-warming
Quote: "By analysing sulfur isotopes in pyrite minerals, the team concluded that 'the main killing agents' were brought about by the mixing of sulfide-rich waters from the deep ocean with oxygenated shallow waters. Exactly what caused this increased mixing is still a mystery, however. 'Sulfide is toxic to eukaryotic cells and we know that hydrogen sulfide at concentrations of a few hundred parts per million would be lethal to humans, if exposed for a prolonged time,' explains Shen. 'The shoaling of sulfidic waters, therefore, would kill marine animals in the Permian–Triassic oceans.'"
Quote: "Although the end-Permian extinction happened over a quarter of a billion years ago, the events that triggered it have added significance in the light of current-day climate change. 'Satellite remote sensing has clearly shown that massive fish mortality in the Namibian coastal waters are associated with sulfidic waters,' says Shen. 'As a matter of fact, due to human-induced eutrophication and global warming, the episodic occurrence of hydrogen sulfide has been reported in many coastal waters – such as those of the Gulf of Mexico, California and western India.' This warning is echoed by Lyons, who notes that there 'are lessons to be learned from this event, as we face warming in the present-day ocean'."
Note: The same thing is happening right now, and has been underway since at least as early as 2002, when sea life began fleeing the depths in the ocean off the Pacific Northwest. And the lesson I would learn from this is that we're no more likely to survive this event than all the other species that it's wiped off the face of the Earth in the past and, therefore, we should focus on Plan B options, or else this is the final chapter in the Book of Humanity...
2017-02-07 - Hydrogen sulfide hitting areas in coastal East Providence (Rhode Island):
http://www.providencejournal.com/news/20170206/moving-toward-solution-to-nuisance-odor-at-east-providence-sewer-plant
Quote: "Waste from Barrington is sitting inside its pipe so long - a situation apparently exacerbated by dry conditions over the past year - that the resulting anaerobic (oxygen-less) conditions are causing it to decompose and give off hydrogen sulfide. Not only does the gas smell of rotten eggs, it's also acidic, said Gray. As a result, it can be corrosive to equipment at the wastewater plant."
2017-02-07 - Scientists warn we could be extinct by 2026:
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/02/near-term-extinction-on-rt.html
Note: That's not far-fetched. Once the barely-frozen clathrates in the Artic blow their wads, global firestorms will begin, sweeping southward and incinerating everything on the surface of the Earth. That could begin at any time now, and the area of the planet warming faster than any other area IS the Arctic...

One thing you can count on with Trump - if it benefits corporatist oligarchs, then he's gonna give them what they want, even if the common man pays the price, and the common man almost always pays the price.

Great. Spread that shit everywhere! [geez] Like it isn't bad enough already.
ReplyDeleteWell my wife insisted on going to work today, so I got her up at 5, made her coffee and saw her off at 5:45. She made it to work with no problem (she drove slowly and carefully). Now, however the heavy stuff is coming down with 50 mph wind gusts. The storm is expected to stop before noon, so I don't think it will end up being all that bad to clean up afterward.
Amazing report again today, Jonny. Thanks for the sprinkling of humorous bits too. They don't go unnoticed and are appreciated (as Fran and I both have said).
Yeah, the authorities have down-played the whole nuclear disaster since it happened. From 3 Mile Island through Chernobyl and Fukushima - they aren't paying any attention to the damage, which is significant and lethal in ANY dosage, caused by the toxic by-products being scattered to the winds, dumped into the ocean and "stored" on land (or even underground). This "industry" was NEVER supposed to be licensed - many of us opposed it from the PLANNING STAGE, before any reactor was ever built. The main complaint is that there's no safe place to store the waste! It's ALWAYS been this way, and the shitheads that built these plants DON'T CARE about anything except money for themselves at the expense of ALL LIFE ON EARTH! WTF!!
That's when I gave up on politics (way before Bush II) and knew we'd end up here someday.

This is my entire first comment today because I fucking HATE the nuclear industry, politicians that are bought off to allow it and the complete unconcern of the citizenry for the environmental degradation and now EXTINCTION - this ON TOP OF all the climate change factors we have to deal with JUST FROM FOSSIL FUEL USE! Plants and animals, birds and fish - NONE of them can tolerate even MINOR amounts of this toxic shit.

Rather than going Venus Earth will end up more like Mars. Very dead with almost no chance to regenerate an atmosphere. Report to be published in 2017.” [more]

The incident occurred at 9:45 local time (08:45 GMT) in an engine room, Électricité de France (EDF) saidin a statement. The power at Reactor №1 was "disconnected automatically" after the blaze started in an engine room in the non-nuclear part of the facility.
At least five people have been slightly injured inhaling the fumes caused by the blast, AFP reports citing authorities.

Trump promised to "fix" Wall Street, so he hired Goldman Sachs at Treasury and repealed Dodd-Frank
He promised to help the Middle Class, so he is going to impose a border tax to raise middle class taxes and cut corporate taxes
He promised to drain the swamp, so he hired ALL industry insiders into his cabinet
He promised to fix the trade deficit, which is now the worst since 2012, compliments of stronger U.S. dollar since the election
He promised to fix the debt, so now he will cut taxes for the ultra-wealthy while imploding the U.S. budget
