Event Update For 2018-05-19





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.

http://www.idahostatesman.com/news/nation-world/article211492064.html

Quote: "Lava creeping across roadways destroyed four homes and left dozens of others in the shadow of Hawaii's Kilauea volcano isolated Saturday, forcing more residents to plan for a possible evacuation. Hawaii County Civil Defense said a fissure near the neighborhood of Lanipuna Gardens has been continuously erupting, releasing a slow-moving lava flow. If that lava threatens a nearby highway, more people will be told to prepare for voluntary evacuation. On Friday, fast-moving lava crossed a road and isolated about 40 homes in a rural subdivision, forcing at least four people to be evacuated by county and National Guard helicopters. The wide lava flow was 'very active' Saturday morning and advancing at rates of up to 300 yards (274 meters) per hour, scientists from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said."

  1. Things are really getting dicey. The weather is out of whack, people are stressed and exhibiting behaviors associated with mental illness and psychosis, the food chain is vanishing slowly, die-offs of marine and avian species is increasing, and both war and economic collapse loom large.

    Earth's Magnetic Field Is Drifting Westward, and Nobody Knows Why

    Over the 400 years or so that humans have been measuring Earth's magnetic field, it has drifted inexorably to the west. Now, a new hypothesis suggests that weird waves in Earth's outer core may cause this drift.

    The slow waves, called Rossby waves, arise in rotating fluids. They're also known as "planetary waves," and they're found in many large, rotating bodies, including on Earth in the oceans and atmosphere and on Jupiter and the sun. [more]

    The number of storage tanks for contaminated water and other materials has continuously increased at Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc.'s Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant in Japan, and space for still more tanks is approaching the limit.
    Behind this is the fact that a way to get rid of treated water, or tritium water, has not been decided yet. The government and TEPCO will have to make a tough decision on disposal of tritium water down the road. [more]

    Washington’s hidden Glacier Peak volcano is among the most dangerous. The volcanic peak is ranked by volcanologists among the country’s highest-threat volcanoes and has unleased eruptions five times bigger than Mount St. Helens’ stupendous blast 38 years ago this month.

    Kilauea volcano growing more hazardous - spewing lava causes first major injury

    A volcano on Hawaii's Big Island that is oozing and spewing lava and exploding with ash and gas has become more hazardous in recent days, with rivers of molten rock flowing into the ocean and flying lava causing the first major injury.

    That sent hydrochloric acid and steam with fine glass particles into the air, a process that can lead to lung damage and eye and skin irritation, another danger for residents as the plume can shift with the wind, the Hawaii County Civil Defense agency said. [more]

  6. A One Way Trip To The Sun
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/05/nobody-cares-yet.html

    What Trumptopia represents more than anything is abdication of responsibility - towards the economy, the environment, the future. They may not care at this particular instant in time, but they surely will

    The fact that so few people care about fiscal responsibility is a testament to the power of tax cuts and self-interest. The epitaph for the U.S. empire will read that it was a failed experiment in self-interest taken to its logical dead-end. And then on to level '11' under Forrest Trump.

    Of course, outside of Fantasyland, there is no such thing as free money. So whereas most financial bloggers seem to always think that the day of reckoning is at some indeterminate point in the distance - the days of reckoning are already at hand. It's just that the pain so far has only been felt at the low end of the income scale and in Emerging Markets. [more]

    In addition to being insufferable, Bitcoin is also absolutely terrible for the environment. According to a letter published today in the energy journal Joule by financial economist and blockchain specialist Alex de Vries, the Bitcoin network is consuming roughly 2.55 gigawatts annually, at the absolute minimum. To put that in context, that’s nearly the same amount of energy consumed by the entirety of Ireland. That’s just the conservative current estimate; De Vries predicts that by December, the Bitcoin network could be using almost triple that.
