Event Update For 2018-04-27





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.

2018-04-27 - Scientists struggle to explain a worrying rise in atmospheric methane:
http://www.economist.com/news/science-and-technology/21741133-potent-greenhouse-gas-scientists-struggle-explain-worrying-rise
http://www.techbeepress.com/scientists-struggle-to-explain-a-worrying-rise-in-atmospheric-methane/
http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/news.php?feature=6814

Quote: "There is one other possibility, advanced by Alexander Turner of the University of California, Berkeley. Rather than sources of methane, Dr Turner looks at methane sinks. Specifically, he has examined hydroxyl radicals, which are water molecules stripped of one hydrogen atom. These volatile compounds act as an atmospheric detergent, mopping up methane by reacting with it to create CO2 and water. And Dr Turner thinks there are less of them about than there used to be. Because a way to measure atmospheric hydroxyl concentrations reliably has yet to be invented, he and his colleagues arrived at their conclusion based on the use of computer models. The decrease in hydroxyls, they wrote last year in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is 'the mathematically most likely explanation' for the rise in methane levels after 2006. Why hydroxyls would have dwindled is anyone’s guess."

Note: From the full hypothesis: "Though it is a heavier-than-air gas, hydrogen sulfide is nevertheless being blown up into the upper atmosphere sometimes, where it is reacting away both the ozone layer and hydroxyl radicals. The loss of the ozone layer will probably eventually result in lethal levels of UV radiation baking the surface of the planet. The rising UV levels are already damaging DNA and RNA and causing increases in the frequency of genetic defects such as albinism and polycephaly (two-headedness) and genetic chimeras. The loss of hydroxyl radicals means that atmospheric methane will last considerably longer in the atmosphere than it normally would, since hydroxyl radicals would normally mitigate the methane."

Dr. Turner is right, and the loss of the hydroxyl radical methane sink doesn't mean that we aren't ALSO seeing more methane flowing into the atmosphere - they are not mutually exclusive possibilities, and in fact I'm quite sure it's both. And just like I said years ago, the hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere are being reacted away, by both hydrogen sulfide and methane. That means even if the same amount of methane enters the atmosphere, it will accumulate faster, because less of it will be reacted away, and methane is accumulating in the atmosphere FAST now. The fewer hydroxyl radicals, the more methane that will accumulate, which will react away more hydroxyl radicals, and so on and so on - another self-reinforcing feedback. So when they say that methane is 25 times worse than CO2 over a century, they're presupposing that there will be a normal amount of hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere to react away the methane. That isn't the case, so methane is now MUCH worse than 25 times as bad as CO2.

The loss of ozone and/or hydroxyl radicals also reduces the atmosphere's UV shielding, which is why the Sun looks more and more WHITE - as opposed to yellow - with every year that passes. That's more UV hitting the surface of the planet - more 'blue' UV light is getting through the atmosphere now. If you remember the yellow Sun, you are a member of the last generation of human beings who will EVER see the Sun like that. If they weren't spraying goop into the sky all across the planet to replace our lost atmospheric UV shielding - especially over populated areas and croplands - we'd probably already all be dead. However, that isn't a solution, nor is it without significant detrimental consequences itself. Spraying 'replacement shielding' into the sky is merely a tactic to buy us a little time by postponing the inevitable. And the minute they stop spraying, the full unmitigated harshness of the extra UV will start frying food crops out of existence all around the planet and widespread starvation will ensue everywhere within a year or two, among other problems...

2017-04-27 - Dead zone larger than Scotland found growing and spreading in the Gulf of Oman:
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/04/180427113251.htm

Quote: "New research reveals a growing 'dead zone' in the Gulf of Oman. Little data has been collected in the area for almost 50 years because of piracy and geopolitical tensions. The area devoid of oxygen was confirmed by underwater robots. Researchers found an area larger than Scotland with almost no oxygen left. The environmental disaster is worse than expected with dire consequences for fish and marine plants, plus humans who rely on the oceans for food and employment."

Quote: "Our research shows that the situation is actually worse than feared -- and that the area of dead zone is vast and growing. The ocean is suffocating."

  1. Absolutely spot-on analysis of the methane situation, Jonny - now corroborated by scientists catching up to what you laid out years ago. [see my last item posted today, probably in second or third part below]

    Lots of stuff happened on this day with a container ship, two car-haulers, a garbage truck and a bunch of cars, pick-ups, buses, RVs, tractor trailers and other vehicles flaming out and/or crashing and burning. But that's not all! There were at least 7 barn fires, a tree farm (that's a first here I think), public buildings, commercial buildings, homes and apartments also being destroyed by sudden fires. Then we add all the people dropping dead - the usual kids in India and all ages of other people going about their business and mysteriously dropping dead.

    Let's see if there's any let-up today:

    The Earth will experience a number of (relatively) close calls in one day, as NASA reports that an alarming total of five asteroids will hurtle towards - but happily not quite at - our planet.

    Should similar space rocks come a little too close for comfort, NASA is working on inventive ways to make sure we don't go the way of the dinosaurs, including nuclear detonations and intense laser blasts. [more; oh, sure - they'll protect us . ..]

  2. The Crowded Dumbfuck Bubble
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/04/betting-it-all-on-dumb-money.html

    Unfortunately, the Idiocracy doesn't trust anyone who can be trusted. This will be their last lesson...

    Last week we learned from eTrade, Interactive Brokers, and Ameritrade, that retail margin balances remain at all time highs. This week we learned that despite the major reversal in yields on Friday, Treasury bond shorts are also all time high. Crude speculators backed off a tad, but are still pegged near record net longs.

    All of which is consistent with the biggest reflationary delusion since 2008

    We also just learned that wages rose the fastest since 2008, but the cost of living is rising much faster.

    Therefore deja vu, the Fed has no choice but to implode borrowers. [more; see charts]

    Idiocracy Meet The Brick Wall Of Reality
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/04/the-brick-wall-of-reality.html

    2018 Imagined Realities are ending. At this stage, only the most fantastical delusions need apply. As long as GoDaddy doesn't roll over, this will all be fine...

    One thing that has not been learned to date by investors of any caliber, between the rival camps of technicals versus fundamentals, is the role of the speculative "observer effect" in securitized markets. Which is to say that when gamblers are triggered to go all in, they are taking part in truncating the rally. They are contributing to the parabolic blow-off top that takes price vertical, hence extinguishing momentum. And yet gamblers individually and cumulatively believe the exact opposite, that their participation is somehow elongating the party. Hence, the continuous river of bullshit that must accompany said positioning. Now imagine 7.5 billion people simultaneously triggered to engage in Ponzi reflation across all risk asset classes at the same time.

    Notice on the Nasdaq that momentum peaked in January prior to the final index peak in March. Also notice that new highs peaked in January as well. [more]

    A Hawaiian island got about 50 inches of rain in 24 hours. Scientists warn it's a sign of the future – “Our communities are scaled and built for a climate that no longer exists”
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/04/a-hawaiian-island-got-about-50-inches.html

    "The flooding on Kauai is consistent with an extreme rainfall that comes with a warmer atmosphere," said Chip Fletcher, a leading expert on the impact of climate change on Pacific island communities.

    He noted that the intense rainfall not only triggered landslides, it also caused the Hanalei River to flood and carve a new path through Hanalei. Homes, cars, and animals were swept away in raging waters, but no residents or visitors died. Some were airlifted to safety or rescued by boat.

    Members of a bison herd were displaced or carried off by floodwaters, and some were rescued from the ocean after swimming for their lives. "Poor buffalo," said Sue Kanoho, executive director of the Kauai Visitors Bureau, who saw video and photos of the animals roaming around businesses and neighborhoods. […]
    "Just recognize that we're moving into a new climate, and our communities are scaled and built for a climate that no longer exists," said Fletcher, a professor of geology and geophysics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. [more]

    Peak Criminality
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/04/peak-criminality.html

    Stealing from the future to pay for today, is the order of the day. Until such time as the future is "now". Every gimmick known to man has been used to propagate this charade - and several gimmicks never before tried. For a reason...

    In order to continue beyond 2008, it was unfortunately necessary that the fatally gored Globalized economic model morph into a massive zero sum criminal enterprise. Be that via money laundering through global real estate, raiding Social Security and Obamacare to pay for tax cuts, inter-generational fiscal plundering, printing money to inflate risk assets, stock buybacks with borrowed money, negative interest rates - there was no idea too corrupt for this inherently corrupt society to consider. Bernie Madoff was a man before his time.

    Therefore, there are no "facts" we can show that can stun the Idiocracy out of their stupor. Profiting at another person's expense has become the de facto business model.

    In other words, we've become Third World. [more]
