"If we pursue our present fatal path, you will drive the ignorant to support coups d'état at one moment, and swell the forces of street rioters at the next, and we shall be left exposed to the pitiless fury of irresponsible mobs trying to avenge themselves by looting among the ruins." -- Léon Gambetta

Event Update For 2018-08-06
http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html
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.kxxv.com/story/38824908/strange-smell-reported-near-airline-prescott-no-gas-leak-found
Quote: "A portion of North Baton Rouge was blocked off due to multiple reports of a suspicious odor in the air Monday night. Reports of the odor began around 7:45 p.m. Monday evening. At 10:20 p.m., a spokesperson with the Baton Rouge Fire Department said the smell was dissipating, but response teams were unable to find the source. Entergy says crews searched in the area near Shelley Street and Evangeline Street, and while there was an odor in the air, it's not from gas."
2018-08-06 - Unknown rotten egg odor hits area near the coast in Onekawa (New Zealand):
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=12102567
Quote: "About a dozen Onekawa Industrial area businesses were evacuated this morning after reports of a gas leak in the area. Fire and Emergency in Napier were called just before 10.15am and three appliances went to the scene which centred around Niven St, Edmundsen St, Wakefield St and Thorn Place. Cordons were set up and traffic diverted while staff and occupants of buildings in the immediate area were evacuated, including a large number from the Quality Bakers in Niven St. Using gas detectors crews moved through the area but at the end of a detailed search of buildings and sites came up with nothing."
2018-08-06 - Insurers fleeing California and other western states as fires escalate:
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-wildfires-property-insurers-cancel-policies-because-of-risk/
http://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1026668775070949376
Quote: "Residents of U.S. towns damaged by wildfires may need to prepare for another repercussion: insurers that decide to cancel policies because of increased risks from more frequent fires. Facing mounting losses, some property insurers are pulling back from selling policies in California and other western states where wildfire risk is elevated. In California alone, damages had mounted to at least $12 billion by early 2018, while the state's Carr fire likely added another $1.5 billion in insured losses."

http://fox40.com/2018/07/29/live-blog-mendocino-complex-fire/
Quote: "Two wildfires blazing in California, known as the Mendocino Complex fire, became the largest recorded in state history on Monday, crossing a grim milestone. The fire, in Colusa, Lake and Mendocino counties, has killed two people and burned almost 283,800 acres as of Monday. It has destroyed at least 143 structures, including 75 homes, according to Cal Fire officials. More than 9,000 structures remain under threat. The Mendocino complex fires, which encompass an area the size of Los Angeles, surpassed the Thomas wildfire in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, which burned 281,893 acres last year."
Quote: "We're looking at over 629,000 acres of ground and vegetation burned in California since January 1 of this year. Last year, same period of time, 223,000 acres..."
Note: So wildfires are burning at almost triple the rate of last year, and last year was itself a record-setting year. From the full hypothesis: "Probably the most noticeable effect will be fires and explosions sweeping across the planet."

When the mainstream media starts reporting on actual climate change, you know things are already way worse than they portray. i'm seeing more and more articles (on Yahoo and elsewhere) about the dire consequences of ("man-made" still underrepresented) climate change, including crop losses, health risks and fire hazards. Of course they throw in the obligatory "if we just start now, we can beat this" nonsense to give "hope" to their readers. This will become front page news as the world disintegrates into chaos over enormous fire activity, growing food shortages (and price hikes), heat-related deaths and when they finally realize that McPherson and JONNY had it right all along!

A peak methane reading of 3046 ppb
ReplyDeleteFrom comments by Joe Neubarth...
“Notice that I am not wasting my time posting all four Met Op 1 & 2 AM and PM Charts. That is for two reasons.
1. NOAA has been screwing with the data and lying about it in bold faced fashion.
2. The Methane readings will be of importance when we start seeing 3000 ppb to 4000 ppb. Right now, it is slowly adding to the atmosphere.”

I have no way of judging the veracity of evidence but the evidence I have matches more closely what I am seeing happening to the Arctic sea ice.
When it comes to balancing sources I have lost all faith in Robert Fanney (aka Robertscribbler) [oh #metoo!]

ReplyDeleteBut...but...ELECTRIC CARS! Not sure how those are gonna help versus firestorms, poison gas, deadly water and lack of food, but what do I know, I'm not Robert Scribbler!
Also, I went back through this year and extracted all the swimming pool deaths and organized those into '2018 - Swimming Pool Deaths', which is listed over there on the right with the other various data collations posted this month. Seemed like there were getting to be pretty many people being found dead in swimming pools, so I thought it'd be worth it. (Plus, I was energized by a morning coffee binge! Heh.)

China Slams 25-Percent Tariff On American Cars And Motorcycles
ReplyDeletehttps://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/china-slams-25-percent-tariff-on-american-cars-and-motorcycles/ar-BBLFsqn
[i'm sure all the other countries that produce them are cheering]
China is turning the heat up in the trade war by placing $16 billion in tariffs against a variety of American exports, including automobiles and motorcycles, according to NBC News. The move comes as retaliation for the United States placing $16 billion in tariffs on Chinese goods.
The increased tariffs don't take effect until August 23, leaving time for the two sides to negotiate an alternative. Don't expect things to change, though. So far, the U.S. and China have used a tit-for-tat strategy that has involved answering one country's increased tariffs with the other country boosting the amount too. [more]

Officials at the Cleveland National Forest said 51-year-old Forrest Gordon Clark was booked Wednesday on suspicion of two counts of felony arson, and one count each of felony threat to terrorize and misdemeanor resisting arrest.
He was arrested in connection with the so-called Holy Fire, which has burned more than 6 square miles in the Santa Ana Mountains. [more; and he's named FORREST?]

While hundreds of thousands of aquatic animals are being killed by a devastating and unprecedented red tide in Florida, other parts in the world have also recorded many unusual animal mass die-offs these days. Here a long list of frightening examples:
Seagulls drop dead from the sky in Saskatchewan, Canada
Millions of fish die in West Lake, Ha Noi, Vietnam

Tornadoes on the East Coast May Be a Sign of Things to Come
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/08/climate/tornadoes-climate-change.html
A tornado, albeit a weak one, touched down in New York City last Thursday, in the College Point neighborhood of Queens. A few days earlier, a stronger tornado was spotted near the town of Douglas, in central Massachusetts. And a few days later a whirlwind ripped through nearby Webster, displacing dozens of people from their damaged homes.
The storms were far from the region in the middle of the country known as Tornado Alley, where the bulk of the nation’s tornadoes occur. In a summer already marked by simmering heat that researchers have linked to global warming, is climate change also making tornadoes more common in places where they once were infrequent? [more]

California’s Record-breaking Fire Isn’t the Week’s Worst Climate News
http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/08/theres-worse-climate-news-than-the-mendocino-complex-fire.html
The Mendocino Complex is only one of a dozen wildfires roiling California right now. But the second record-breaking wildfire season in California within the last 12 months was hardly the day’s worst climate news.
In an alarming report published in the prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 16 scientists warned that — thanks to a series of dramatic positive-feedback loops they suggest might be significantly underestimated by the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which effectively establishes the boundaries of acceptable discourse on global warming — the planet may already be heading down a far more harrowing warming path than most scientists, and certainly most nonscientists, understand.
