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.

Mike Kim, the head pharmacist and owner of Grubb's, should know; he's the one who's responsible for filling prescriptions for members of Congress. And he says that what he sees are plenty of prescriptions for things like diabetes and circulation issues, as well as for more serious conditions like Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. This, he says, is somewhat concerning because it calls into question whether or not the people crafting our country's laws are cognitively fit to be making such important decisions.

What caused such damage in the California wildfires?
Questions about the California fires
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/10/what-caused-such-damage-in-california.html
[contains the following]
Questions about the nature of the damage
"There is something wrong here, the melting/ burning point of common household materials like glass (2600℉) and stainless steel (2800℉) are DOUBLE the temperature of house and forest fires (1100℉)"
What she points out is that everything in the path of the fire was reduced to rubble and dust (as if hit by a nuke in the words of one fireman) - all the contents of houses such as porcelain toilets, fridges - everything.
She has clearly done her research and cites the temperatures needed to melt steel and glass - almost "furnace-like" conditions. All the while she shows how trees nearby - even pine trees- remained intact along with twigs on the ground- unburnt.
Yesterday someone posted pictures of burnt-out cars with melted aluminium that reminded me of the lead I used to melt as a child from lead nails.
Something turned these houses into in furnaces to allow for near complete combustion... the evidence of what we are seeing defies the laws of physics for an open air fire, I have ALREADY documented the wind speeds were marginal for the areas at the time the fires started. The fat that a tree is burning AS IF IT IS A FURNACE is noteworthy and should be of great concern to anyone educated prior to 1995 when physics and chemistry actually taught us what is possible with a mere open air burn v a furnace. TOTAL combustion of material is NOT possible outside of a furnace, yet that is exactly the damage we are observing with temps reaching high enough values to MELT GLASS.. [more below my question]
[do you think that the methane blowing around in the atmosphere acted like an accelerant, Jonny?]
Jim Stone: California Fires Were Not “Wild” They Were Engineered
How could you possibly get 66 widely spaced massive wildfires appearing instantly with no natural weather causing them, growing rapidly, with perfectly calm weather before, sudden massive winds at the initiation of the fires, blue sparks in the air, malfunctioning electronics, and in some people heart palpitations? My answer: just ask Darpa. [more]
[more below]
On the furnace effect on the cars and houses I'm betting its a combination of methane and hydrogen sulfide. I would think it is more hydrogen sulfide though with the items at ground level. The methane may be helping the fires to spread more rapidly. I'll wait for Jonny's opinion since he's been studying this for much longer than myself.
DeleteYes, I think hydrogen sulfide and methane blowing in off the ocean 'enhanced' those fires. Hydrogen sulfide burns the hottest too and we already know that's blowing in off the ocean in spots, because there's a committee in Huntington Beach studying why hydrogen sulfide is blowing in off the ocean and hitting their city. And we know it happens with methane too, because when a foul odor hit Santa Monica, the gubment blamed that on a 'naturally occurring methane release' in Santa Monica Bay. (But that was both hydrogen sulfide AND methane, since methane is odorless and wouldn't cause any 'foul odor'.)
DeleteHydrogen sulfide could also cause heart palpitations (among other things), and both gases could cause malfunctioning electronics.
No need for DARPA stuff for these fires - just a nearby ocean, some wind and some hydrogen sulfide and methane. I wish Jim Stone was right. DARPA could be stopped. The Earth? Not so much.

A 10-year-old boy is in hospital after falling about 30 metres (100ft) over the railing at Niagara Falls into a gorge below.
Police told the BBC the boy was sitting on the railing so his mother could take a picture on Sunday.
He apparently lost his balance and plummeted backwards, striking his head.

The most recent aid to Puerto Rico after Maria was delivered by Rosana Guernica, a junior at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Guernica raised tens of thousands of dollars through crowdfunding and reserved a plane to deliver emergency supplies to Puerto Rico, her home. She bought thousands of pounds of supplies, such as baby formula, water, batteries and medicine.
Guernica started soliciting donations on YouCaring, a crowdfunding site, one week after Maria hit, and she raised $7,000 in 24 hours, according to The Associated Press. By the following day, she had raised $11,000. So far, 786 donors have contributed to the cause, and donations exceed $82,000. Her YouCaring page was shared 1,800 times on Facebook. [more]

The Fed knows that Trump is a big, fat, ugly bubble of nothing, but they're going to monkey hammer his dumbfuck acolytes anyways aka. the "value-less" voters. It's a solid plan...
Remember back in 1998 the LTCM domino collapse caused by the Asian Financial Crisis? Despite the prevailing end-of-cycle tightening mode, Greenspan quickly lowered interest rates one full percentage point which set-off the parabolic Nasdaq rally into Y2K. Needless to say it was a disaster to gun risk assets after a decade-long rally...
Now fast forward, and Global Central banks used Brexit as the rationale for the exact same thing. Of course, the Fed itself was in tightening mode during the past year, so the heavy lifting was left to Japan, China, and Europe:

Florida’s Migrant Farm Workers Struggle After Hurricane Damaged Homes, Crops

Jobs, homes and lives are at risk when extreme weather strikes
the communities that grow America's food
Hurricane Irma knocked millions of dollars worth of oranges and grapefruits to the ground. Its high winds mowed down thousands of acres of sugarcane, toppled nursery plants, and decimated the avocado crop.
The damage will cost the state's agricultural industry billions, but for the migrant workers who pick these crops and work in the fields, the storm means real hardship that will test lives already on the edge.
"If you listen to the news coverage about Irma, you'll hear about damage to the farms. You don't ever hear about impact to farm workers," said Jeannie Economos, the pesticide safety and environmental health project coordinator with the Farmworker Association of Florida. "And there's a critical piece—an intersection of climate change and living and working conditions for migrant workers."
Florida is the country's second-largest producer of vegetables and top citrus producer, and its $8 billion agricultural economy depends on migrant workers. Unlike other parts of the country, where the agricultural economy is supported by mechanization, almost all of the crops grown in Florida, from asparagus to zucchini, require a human to pick them. Many are migrant workers—some in the country legally, and some not—who are especially vulnerable to the danger and economic hardship that accompany a monster storm like Irma.
"If you're not picking, you're not getting paid—you won't have any income," said Kathy Dain director of the Beth-El Farmworker Ministry in Wimauma. "For those who live in poverty—which would be our farmworkers—you don't have the resources. [more]
Another similarity to the California and Portugal/Spain fires - high winds. (That was the answer to the Gollum riddle I just used as the quote of the day too - "Voiceless it cries, wingless flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters.")
ReplyDeleteIf the winds are light and slow then as methane burps from the ocean, it will start to ascend to the upper atmosphere. But if the winds are heavy then they may blow the methane ashore BEFORE it ascends very high. The hydrogen sulfide will get there either way, since it's a heavier-than-air gas, but add the two together under high wind conditions and you're going to see the problems exacerbated. So I think it's noteworthy, those commonalities - high wind conditions, westernmost areas next to the ocean, and 'blast-furnace' type effects.
