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.

Hiker disappears in Northern California mountains on 5-day hike
https://www.yahoo.com/gma/hiker-disappears-northern-california-mountains-5-day-hike-080115980--abc-news-topstories.html
Authorities suspended search-and-rescue operations for a missing hiker in the mountains of Northern California on Friday night, but said they planned to return to the area on Saturday.
Daniel Komins had embarked on a solo hiking trip in the Trinity Alps, about 75 miles northwest of Redding, on Aug. 10. He has not been seen since one day later when backpackers told the Trinity County Sheriff's Office they had seen him on the trail.
The 34-year-old, who is an experienced hiker, also spoke to his girlfriend on the night of Aug. 11 and "informed her that the trip was going as planned," according to the sheriff's office.
He was expected to return from the hike on Aug. 14.
Komins' empty car was found near the trailhead on the same day, officials said. He had food, water and backpacking supplies with him on the hike.
"Komins is an experienced hiker and an Emergency Medical Technician," the sheriff's office said. "He has with him a Global Positioning System (GPS) tracker, which is not presently operating appropriately. Komins also has with him his cellular telephone, which has seen no activity since August 11, 2019." [more; "hello, 411?"]

Texas Teenager Suffers 'Serious Internal Injuries' After Being Sucked Into Water Park Intake Pump
https://www.yahoo.com/news/texas-teenager-suffers-serious-internal-235815489.html
A Texas teen is in a critical condition following a freak accident at a water park that authorities said might have been caused by a dare gone wrong.
On Wednesday, Galveston County Sheriff Henry Trochesset told local news outlet KTRK that a 14-year-old, later identified by family and friends as Caden Strimple, was in the hospital with “serious internal injuries” after he was sucked into a drain in a pool at Fun Town Water Park in Crystal Beach, Texas on Saturday.
Trochesset said the accident occurred after Caden picked up up a grate placed on top of an underwater intake pump. “From my understanding, it might have been on a dare,” he added. [more]

Wind turbines tossed into dump stirs debate on wind power’s dirty downside
https://desdemonadespair.net/2019/08/wind-turbines-tossed-into-dump-stirs-debate-on-wind-powers-dirty-downside.html
Wind turbines may be carbon-free, but they’re not recyclable.
[uh, no, they aren't "carbon-free" either, sorry]
A photograph of dozens of giant turbine blades dumped into a Wyoming landfill touched off a debate Wednesday on Twitter about wind power’s environmental drawbacks. The argument may be only beginning.
Fiberglass turbine blades — which in some cases are as long a football field — aren’t easy to recycle. And with BloombergNEF expecting up to 2 gigawatts worth of turbines to be refitted this year and next, there could be heaps more headed for dumps. [more]

Extremely bright meteor fireball in the skies over the western-central Mediterranean - August 16th, 2019
https://www.sott.net/article/418725-Extremely-bright-meteor-fireball-in-the-skies-over-the-western-central-Mediterranean-August-16th-2019
The fireball was likely significantly brighter than the full Moon, indicating a sizeable incoming meteoroid. It was a long-duration event, lasting over 4 seconds. The meteor reached peak brightness in a series of bright flares, which appear to have resulted in fragmentation of the meteoroid - several fragments are visible towards the end of the luminous path. It appears likely that the incoming meteoroid was comparatively slow and that the event may have resulted in a meteorite fall - into the Mediterranean sea. [more]
