Event Update For 2017-04-16





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: "'We’re treating it as a suspicious death until we determine if it’s a suicide or a homicide,' police Sgt. Paul Flores said."

Note: Of course those aren't the only possibilities. Her clothes may have burst into flame and burned her to death. If so, she wouldn't remotely be the first person to die that way. Specifying the possibilities for you is a psyops tactic used in an attempt to control your thinking. Maybe they're doing it out of ignorance and not purposely, I dunno, but that's what it is...

http://www.newsoptimist.ca/news/follow-the-sirens/fire-at-shnb-site-1.15664662

Quote: "North Battleford Fire Department responded to two fires on the weekend. Saturday at about 4:30 p.m., one fire truck and four firefighters were dispatched to the Saskatchewan Hospital construction site. A fire had erupted in the engine compartment of a JLG man lift. Firefighters were on the scene for more than four hours, but the damage is described as minor. Friday at about 4:45 p.m., NBFD doused a blaze in a scrap metal pile at McDonald Metals in the Parson’s Industrial Park. The fire was contained and no buildings were damaged."

2017-04-16 - University hit by unknown 'noxious odor' in Buffalo (New York):
http://buffalonews.com/2017/04/16/furnas-hall-ubs-north-campus-evaculated-report-chemical-release/

Quote: "Furnas Hall on the University at Buffalo's North Campus was evacuated just before 7 p.m. Sunday amid reports of a possible leak of methane gas in the 10-story building. A UB spokesperson said the building, which houses the departments of Chemical Engineering and Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, was declared safe following a search and reopened late Sunday night. Authorities said several students in a fifth-floor chemical lab had noticed the 'noxious odor' and summoned UB police, prompting a search of the building by hazmat crews, who found no gas leaks and determined the building was safe."

Note: Why would they think it was methane? Methane is odorless...

2017-04-16 - Methane levels rising rapidly in the atmosphere:
http://phys.org/news/2017-04-early-out-of-control-climate.html

Quote: "The great concern is the rapid rise, over the last three years, in methane levels in the atmosphere. Methane is a gas with 28 times the planet-heating power of carbon dioxide. Scientists estimate there may be as much as 5 trillion tonnes of it locked in permafrost and seabed deposits."

Quote: "Reports of methane escaping into the atmosphere have been growing steadily, ever since a group of students demonstrated the risks by setting fire to venting Arctic gas in 2008. However, scientists report a sudden surge in global methane emissions in the last three years, 2014-16."

Quote: "So far the rise in methane has been attributed mainly to cattle raising, rice farming and gas extraction – but there is now disturbing evidence that more gas is emerging from Arctic soils as the permafrost melts, and from the seabed where methane has been trapped as ice for millions of years. Russian scientists have reported the discovery of thousands of potential 'methane-bombs' – frozen gas-filled mounds – across Siberia, primed to erupt as the ground thaws out. Swedish scientists have observed the waters of the Artic oceans 'fizzing like soda water' as the ocean waters warm, causing frozen seabed methane to turn back into gas and erupt."

Note: That's right, the Earth is loading up her planetary-scale firebomb guns and preparing to wipe us off the surface of the Earth...

2017-04-16 - Abrupt climate change is happening faster than before:
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/04/faster-than-previously-expected.html

Quote: "In about the last 100,000 years, there have been 23 abrupt temperature changes in Greenland ice cores. In those moments, the temperature abruptly jumped or fell 9 to 14 degrees Fahrenheit across the planet and 25 to 35 degrees Fahrenheit in Greenland. The changes typically took decades to generations, but at their most extreme, they only took two to three years."

Quote: "Fire Department spokesman Tim Szymanski said investigators are searching for a link between the fires but have yet to find a common thread between them, other than the time frame and proximity of the fires. It began with a dumpster fire at 5:23 a.m. behind a building at 1155 S. Fourth St. that was quickly extinguished, according to the Fire Department. The next fire, also in a dumpster, was called in at 5:34 a.m. at the Gateway Motel, 928 Las Vegas Blvd. South, a block away from the previous fire. A minute later, Las Vegas and Clark County firefighters responded to a third fire at the Oasis Motel, 1731 Las Vegas Blvd. South, where a palm tree, some grass and a vehicle were on fire. At 5:44 a.m., both departments responded to a vehicle fire at the Stratosphere Hotel, 2000 Las Vegas Blvd. South, and at 5:51 a.m. the fifth fire was reported at a vacant one-story building at 2029 Paradise Road, one block east of the Stratosphere."

  3. The retail apocalypse is creating a 'rolling crisis' that is rippling through the US economy
    http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/the-retail-apocalypse-is-creating-a-rolling-crisis-that-is-rippling-through-the-us-economy

    Retailers are closing thousands of stores and going bankrupt at a rate not seen since the recession, and tens of thousands of people are losing their jobs as a result.

    Since October, 89,000 workers in general merchandise stores have lost their jobs, which is more than the number of people employed in the entire US coal industry, reports The New York Times. 

    "The coal miners are out of luck," Cohen sad. "Retail workers are in the same boat."

    More than 3,000 stores are expected to close over the next several months. The scale of the looming job losses hasn't yet been revealed, but it will likely number in the tens of thousands. JCPenney, for example, is closing 138 stores and says 5,000 workers will lose their jobs as a result. [more]

    Despite the EPA's own evidence of risk it decides not to ban chlorpyrifos pesticides
    https://www.sott.net/article/348565-Despite-the-EPAs-own-evidence-of-risk-it-decides-not-to-ban-chlorpyrifos-pesticides

    The EPA says it's reversing course and keeping chlorpyrifos on the market.

    That's despite the agency's earlier conclusion, reached during the Obama administration, that this pesticide could pose risks to consumers. It's a signal that toxic chemicals will face less restrictive regulation by the Trump administration. [oh, yummy!]

    Predicaments Lack Solutions
    https://guymcpherson.com/2017/04/predicaments-lack-solutions/#more-8282

    One of the penalties of an ecological education is that one lives alone in a world of wounds. Much of the damage inflicted on land is quite invisible to laymen. An ecologist must either harden his shell and make believe that the consequences of science are none of his business, or he must be the doctor who sees the marks of death in a community that believes itself well and does not want to be told otherwise.

    Coronal hole = Major Quakes! Only 3 major quakes all month: Now 2 in 1 hour as 2 large holes on the Sun faces Earth!
    http://www.thebigwobble.org/2017/04/coronal-hole-major-quakes-only-3-major.html

    We have had only three major quakes all month up till this evening, then as two massive Coronal holes line up to face Earth spewing a solar wind stream which was expected to reach Earth today we have had two major quakes in one hour not to mention the three active volcanoes yesterday.
    The two major quakes, of magnitude 6. Struck Fiji and Peru in the same hour this evening and are only the 4th and 5th major quakes of April. [more]
