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.

2017-12-12 - Unknown 'gas odor' hits Los Altos (California):
http://www.losaltosonline.com/news/sections/news/200-police-fire/56714-
Quote: "The alarming odor of gas left some residents scrunching their noses in downtown Los Altos last week. The Santa Clara County Fire Department – joined by PG&E – responded to reports of the smell after receiving multiple calls beginning at approximately 8:32 a.m., according to department spokeswoman Luisa Rapport. 'Both County Fire and PG&E monitored the area for an hour and a half and never got any reading on their monitors,' she said of their failure to detect a gas leak."
Quote: "After 90 minutes, the smell dissipated and firefighters and PG&E cleared the scene. The cause remains unknown."
Note: Their detectors failed to detect anything because they were using natural gas detectors, not hydrogen sulfide detectors...

Note: Blamed on leaves. Who knows, but A) this hasn't happened before; B) this isn't the only city with leaves; and C) this isn't the only year that there've been leaves here. Could be these were just cars spontaneously igniting like they are everywhere and it's just coincidence that there were some leaves around at the time. Or maybe the leaves have adsorbed more methane and/or hydrogen sulfide this year compared to past years in this area and the leaves are thus more flammable and easily ignitable...

Authorities said they responded to a crash report on Route 28 near Frying Pan Road at about 3:30 p.m. Video sent to FOX 5 by a viewer shows a man appearing to have crashed a pick-up truck into the back of a dump truck. The man is then seen jumping in the bed of the pick-up truck before he starts running around on the roadway."

Kinda embarrassing when the Fire Chief's COMMAND CAR goes up in flames while he's routinely driving. There will be no follow-up explanation. Similarly, the police station erupting in flames due to a duct fire will not be investigated (or the results will be kept from the public).
ReplyDeleteApartments continue to burn (as well as single homes and other structures), and on this day we see a tv set and an air conditioner also flaming out.
The usual litany of vehicle accidents (with collateral damage) from passed out or dead drivers continues, and the number of people simply dying on the spot grows daily. As usual, there's never any explanation by authorities. "Natural causes" includes H2S poisoning now, I guess.

The US is not a democracy and it never was
https://www.sott.net/article/371228-The-US-is-not-a-democracy-and-it-never-was
[Counterpunch]
if this record is soberly and methodically inspected, is that a country founded on elite, colonial rule based on the power of wealth-a plutocratic colonial oligarchy, in short-has succeeded not only in buying the label of "democracy" to market itself to the masses, but in having its citizenry, and many others, so socially and psychologically invested in its nationalist origin myth that they refuse to hear lucid and well-documented arguments to the contrary.
Moreover, it is estimated that over half of the colonists who came to North America from Europe during the colonial period were poor indentured servants, and women were generally trapped in roles of domestic servitude. Rather than the land of the free and equal, then, European colonial expansion to the Americas imposed a land of the colonizer and the colonized, the master and the slave, the rich and the poor, the free and the un-free. The former constituted, moreover, an infinitesimally small minority of the population, whereas the overwhelming majority, meaning "the people," was subjected to death, slavery, servitude, and unremitting socio-economic oppression.

In fact, the condition is occurring often enough that it was recently added to the federally operated vaccine injury compensation program's (VICP) Vaccine Injury Table, which lists some, but not all, serious side effects that are known to be caused by vaccines. [more]

Like all the other critics, he attacks Guy with personal stuff (ad hominem), but can't argue with the message or logic of Guy's conclusions (all based on established scientific papers).

Corruption of Science: Coca-Cola's Shady Record in Obesity Research - 'Dracula in Charge of the Blood Bank'
ReplyDeletehttps://www.sott.net/article/371284-Corruption-of-Science-Coca-Colas-Shady-Record-in-Obesity-Research-Dracula-in-Charge-of-the-Blood-Bank
It was revealed back in 2015 that Coca Cola invested at least $4 million in founding the 'Global Energy Balance Network' (GEBN), a non-profit organization run by university scientists engaged in obesity research projects.
The group said that halting weight gain should be less about dieting and more about "maintaining an active lifestyle and eating more calories". They claimed that there was no compelling evidence to suggest that people should blame fast food and sugary drinks for the obesity epidemic. GEBN's message was that "obesity is not about the foods or beverages you're consuming, it's that you're not balancing those foods with exercise". Their main claim was that there was "strong evidence" that lack of exercise is mostly to blame for obesity, not poor diet. GEBN's website and social media pages are no longer available after their industry-sponsorship came to public awareness. [more]
