Event Update For 2019-07-04

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.

2019-07-04 - Massive sargassum algae bloom continues growing, stretches from western Africa to the Gulf Coast in Mexico:

Quote: "It weighs 20m tonnes, stretches from west Africa to the Gulf of Mexico, and washes up on beaches creating a malodorous stench. Now scientists say a vast swathe of brown seaweed could be becoming an annual occurrence. Researchers say the explosion in sargassum seaweed first materialised in 2011. But new research shows it has appeared almost every year since then, forming the largest bloom of macroalgae ever recorded. What’s more, the seaweed band – dubbed the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt – seems to be getting bigger."

Quote: "So far 2019 also looks set for a huge bloom. 'It’s another record year,' said Hu, adding that the frequent recurrence of the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt raises the possibility that the phenomenon may be the new status quo."

Quote: "Besides a rotten egg smell, 'there can be some pretty serious health risks from exposure to hydrogen sulfide,' said Brian Lapointe, a research professor at Florida Atlantic University's Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute at Fort Pierce."

Quote: "The thick seaweed also releases hydrogen sulfide gas that smells like rotten eggs, which can cause problems for those with respiratory issues."

Note: And when the heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide concentrates in low-lying areas like ponds, ditches, basements, etc, then it may also cause staying-alive issues for people. They say this bloom weighs 20 million tons. If the bacteria and archaea that produce hydrogen sulfide were to convert just a tenth of that mass into hydrogen sulfide, that'd be 2 million tons of hydrogen sulfide. Efficiently distributed, that'd be way more than enough to kill every human being on the planet. Much will be reacted away though, and it won't be efficiently distributed. But this problem is worsening, so there will be more and more of this goop, and these gigantic algae blooms will eat up oxygen in the oceans, making conditions increasingly hospitable for the bacteria and archaea that produce hydrogen sulfide. It'll take just one decent-sized area in the oceans to heat up and go anoxic to generate enough hydrogen sulfide to exterminate mankind. This could be that area...

http://pix11.com/2019/07/04/bahamas-police-7-americans-killed-in-helicopter-crash/

Quote: "A helicopter crashed off the Bahamas on Thursday, killing all seven people on board, a Bahamas official confirmed to CBS News. The aircraft had departed from Grand Cay island and was heading to Fort Lauderdale, said Capt. Delvin Major, the Aviation Safety Inspector and Air Accident Investigator with the Bahamas Civil Aviation Department. The Associated Press reported all seven people on board were Americans."

Quote: "Coal tycoon Chris Cline and six others were killed on early Thursday morning when their helicopter crashed near an island in the Bahamas, local and U.S. officials say. It happened on the eve of the billionaire's 62nd birthday."

Quote: "Christopher Cline, whose 61st birthday was Friday, was aboard the 2008 model helicopter to transport his daughter, Kameron, 22, to Fort Lauderdale because of a medical emergency when it crashed around 2 a.m."

Note: He became a billionaire burning coal and thereby helping end the human race, and it may very well be the consequences of burning coal that sent him to his death. Obviously, it's too late for him to appreciate the irony of that. So he was flying in the wee hours because his 22-year-old daughter had a 'medical emergency' in the Bahamas. If you don't know what's happening with respect to this planet then I actually think being a billionaire makes you MORE apt to die off sooner rather than later, because you have so many additional ways to get killed that common folks don't, like flying in private helicopters near resort islands. This is at LEAST the third billionaire I've seen die flying in a helicopter or private jet over the sea in the last coupla years. They're literally dropping like flies! Wealth without knowledge just enables extra ways to die...
