Event Update For 2019-01-16

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.

2019-01-16 - Hydrogen sulfide spewing from landfill in East Brunswick (New Jersey):
http://www.mycentraljersey.com/story/news/local/middlesex-county/2019/01/17/rotten-egg-odor-middlesex-county-landfill-byproduct-emissions-trash/2601553002/

Quote: "Blame hydrogen sulfide for the 'rotten egg' odor coming from the Middlesex County Landfill (Edgeboro), the Middlesex County Utilities Authority's executive directory says. 'The rotten egg smell is bad for your nose, but very little else,' State Sen. Joseph Cryan told a packed room of residents who grilled him and other authority officials during a forum conducted Wednesday night in the township. While the smell is not harmful to residents' health, Cryan, the authority's executive director, said that officials recognize that it doesn't add to the local quality of life, and detailed an ongoing $15-million-plus capital improvement project aimed at reducing the odor."

Note: State Senator Joseph Cryan clearly doesn't know jack. Hydrogen sulfide is a deadly poison, weaponized by the British to kill German soldiers in WWI during trench warfare. It's as deadly as hydrogen cyanide, which is what they use to execute people in gas chambers. At 1 part per thousand it can kill a person with one breath, the so-called 'Slaughterhouse Sledgehammer Effect' where you're dead before your knees buckle and your corpse hits the ground. And nobody knows what it does to people who smell it regularly, even at low levels, but the effects can't possibly be good. They're probably smelling it at very low concentrations in this area, but since it's a heavier-than-air gas, it will tend to concentrate in low-lying areas when the wind isn't blowing, and who knows what concentration it might reach then. State Senator Joseph Cryan should try inhaling some 0.1% hydrogen sulfide if he's really sure it's not harmful. I'm guessing he won't do that and if he does then somebody should have a body bag handy to cart away his corpse...

2019-01-16 - Unknown rotten egg odor hits school in Utica (New York):

2019-01-16 - Oceans heating up rapidly, massive amount of heat added to the oceans in one year:
http://www.livescience.com/64510-hottest-ocean.html
http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00376-019-8276-x
http://preview.msn.com/en-ca/video/watch/scientists-sound-the-alarm-2018-ocean-temps-hotter-than-ever/vi-BBSlpTH

Quote: "The ocean is the hottest it's ever been, and no, this is not normal. A new report released in the journal Advances in Atmospheric Sciences on Jan. 15 reveals that ocean temperatures in 2018 reached their highest point since accurate measurements first began in the 1950s. The heat increase in the world's oceans from 2017 (the previous record holder) to 2018 is equivalent to about 388 times the total electricity generation of China in 2017, according to a statement about the research released by the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in China."

Quote: "After 2018 and 2017, the third warmest year for ocean temperatures was 2015, followed by 2016 and finally 2014."

Note: So the five warmest years ever measured for the oceans were all in the last five years. From warmest to fifth-warmest: 2018, 2017, 2015, 2016, 2014...

2019-01-16 - Theoretically, the worst of global warming could be avoided if all fossil fuel stuff immediately begins transition to zero-carbon alternatives:
http://nypost.com/2019/01/16/drastic-solution-to-halt-climate-change-could-be-our-last/

Quote: "According to a new study published in the journal Nature Communications, Earth has a 64 percent chance of keeping warming under 1.5 degrees Celsius if all fossil fuel infrastructures immediately begin to transition into zero-carbon alternatives."

Note: Doesn't sound remotely possible. I mean, the Earth's own carbon emissions are rising now, and that's not going to stop and will, in fact, accelerate. Also, as a practical matter, there's no way to decarbonize 'immediately' even if there was the will to do so. So, this sounds like a pipe dream to me, some placating hopium for the masses. And even if we DID somehow miraculously achieve the impossible, then we'd lose the benefits of 'global dimming' and global temps would then quickly rise a significant amount, amplifying any number of other self-reinforcing feedbacks and thus rapidly escalating the Earth's own carbon emissions. We're now trapped in a cycle of destruction from which there is no escape and which ends with our own extinction as well as the extinction of most life on Earth. The End.

http://www.malaysia-chronicle.com/?p=152657

Quote: "An Indonesian fisherman who claims to know the exact spot where the ill-fated MH370 plane crashed into the Sumatra sea has handed over the co-ordinates to investigators. Rusli Khusmin, 42, says he and his crew members witnessed the disaster, in which a Beijing-bound Malaysian Airlines flight carrying 239 people disappeared, on the morning of March 8, 2014."

Quote: "There was no noise, just black smoke as a result of fires before it crashed into the water."

Note: I've always thought that this plane either caught fire or that the pilots were gassed to death in the cockpit, and either way the plane flew on until it crashed...
