Event Update For 2019-09-29







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.

2019-09-29 - Mysterious smoke ring appears in the sky near Moscow (Russia):
http://sputniknews.com/viral/201909291076917831-nothing-to-see-here-cryptic-black-ring-appears-in-sky-above-moscow-region---video/
http://www.sott.net/article/421192-Strange-black-smoke-ring-appears-above-Moscow-region

Note: When a blob of semi-concentrated gaseous methane in the atmosphere spontaneously ignites, it may leave a carbon trace behind - the C in CH4 - and that could produce a smoke ring. These mysterious smoke rings began appearing around the world several years ago, not coincidentally at the same time as methane levels in the atmosphere began spiking. What this means is that sometimes the AIR ITSELF will burst into flame, no ignition source necessary; the term commonly used for this is 'auto-ignition'. If this happens in the sky, no big deal, maybe a weird smoke ring. If it happens on top of you then you'll probably die or at least you're likely to be seriously burned. If it happens at night in your yard when nobody's around paying attention then your home may go up in flames. If it happens out in a remote forest or jungle then there may be a sudden wildfire with no discernible cause. There will be no warning when this happens since methane is both invisible and odorless...

  1. DAY-um! BIG losses on this day for insurance companies. A few more of these and i can see the entire industry going bankrupt. There's no way they can afford BILLIONS of dollars in pay-outs per week/month without hurting their bottom line.

    There's all these people dying, many of them insured (especially bread-winners), all the insured vehicles, residences, commercial buildings, infrastructure and more going up in flames or being destroyed by anomalous weather/natural disasters (like flooding and tornadoes).

    Then we move on to the environment which is also affected by climate change, weather related damage (think wildfires, etc),
    dying species of all kinds (including soil microbes to whales), increasingly toxic air and water (due mainly to man-made pollution, but also from volcanic activity and large fires) - and pretty soon we're in a world of hurt!

    Why effective climate change solutions remain so elusive – “When there is this asymmetry in costs and benefits, our behaviors don’t change”

    Johns Hopkins Professor Paul Ferraro has spent a lot of time thinking about climate change, and he’s uncovered a major barrier to combating the rise in global temperatures: the human psyche.

    “The problem is that what we need to achieve is so daunting and taxes our resources so much that we end up with a situation that’s much, much worse than if we had focused our efforts,” says Ferraro, a Bloomberg Distinguished Professor who is an expert in behavioral economics and the design and estimation of impacts of environmental programs. “Proposed hundred-pronged solutions end up being, in actuality, zero-prong solutions because the human brain, especially in the collective, doesn’t work like a computer.” [more]

    September 2019: Record-busting Cat 5 Hurricane Dorian. Forgotten Sept 11 Hurricane Erin: Historic wildfires: Typhoons and a rush of major quakes!
    http://www.thebigwobble.org/2019/10/september-2019-record-busting-cat-5.html

    July was the 12th consecutive month in which average temperatures were above normal nearly every day, said Brian Brettschneider, a scientist with the Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy (ACCAP) at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

    Of Alaska’s 10 warmest months on record, seven have now occurred since 2004.

    On the 24th of Sept, as the Caribbean and Gulf area were being battered by 2 tropical storms and just two weeks after Hurricane Dorian devastated the Bahamas a scene evolved resembling a Holywood movie epic. During the night two volcanoes erupted, the Popocatepetl volcano near Mexico City and the Poas volcano Costa Rica followed by two mag 6.0 major quakes near Puerto Rico with multiple aftershocks which occurred smash bang in the middle of Tropical Storm Karen which was sitting south of Tropical Storm Jerry.

    The volcanic and quake activity proved to be a precursor of powerful seismic activity around the world, producing 7 major quakes in just 6 days along with a string of powerful smaller quakes in Pakistan and Turkey, as usual, the spike in quake activity coincided with coronal activity on the Sun and the geomagnetic storms [more]

    https://watchers.news/2019/09/30/record-breaking-september-snowstorm-dumps-4-feet-of-snow-on-parts-of-montana-usa/

    A record-smashing snowstorm with wet snow and strong winds hit parts of the Northern Rockies on September 28 and 29, 2019, resulting in power outages, uprooted trees, and road closures. Several parts of Montana experienced blizzard conditions and more than a foot of snow, setting new daily rainfall records. Wind gusts from 64 to 96 km/h (40 to 60 mph) were measured in Montana.

    some areas remain in unreasonably cold conditions which will delay the subsiding of snow and halt the agricultural growing season.[more]

    Amtrak crash: Why train rammed into CSX freight cars, killing 2 and injuring 91, per NTSB
    https://www.yahoo.com/news/ntsb-finds-blame-amtrak-crash-214821301.html

    A fatal Amtrak train accident in South Carolina that killed two and injured 91 happened because work on the tracks led to a conductor failing to move a hand-thrown switch that would have prevented the crash, the NTSB said Monday.

    The National Transportation Safety Board found that the conductor with freight operator CSX Transportation didn't move the switch to keep the Amtrak train on the main track in Cayce. Instead, the Miami-bound passenger was diverted onto another track as it barreled along at 53 miles per hour at 2:27 a.m. on Feb. 4, 2018 and piled into a parked freight train. [more]

    Highest Indian monsoon rains in 25 years to boost winter crops

    Monsoon rains in India were 10% above average in 2019 and the highest in 25 years as seasonal rainfall continued longer than expected, the weather department said on Monday.

    The longer monsoon could also restock reservoirs and help replenish ground water, helping assuage water shortages in pockets of the country of 1.3 billion people.

    But heavy rainfall in some areas has damaged summer-sown crops like cotton, soybean and pulses that are close to harvest.

    How Scientists Finally Got Americans to Worry About the Climate
    https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/scientists-finally-got-americans-worry-140006298.html

    The evidence was strong 10 years ago, even 20, that the world had a problem with global warming. We knew then that it was going to exacerbate extreme weather and heat waves and raise the sea level. But nearly half of Americans didn’t take it seriously. Now they do, according to polls, and what changed wasn’t the amount of evidence but a shift in political forces and some changes in the way scientists learned to make their case.

    A report last week on cumulative damage to the world’s oceans and ice caps, for example, got big attention in the media, though the message wasn’t all that different from earlier reports from the IPCC. A few more specifics are known: The report projects that by 2050, at many coastal locations, the historic once-in-a-century flood will become an annual event, said Princeton University climate researcher Michael Oppenheimer, who was an author of the report.

    What’s noticeably changed is the way Americans are reacting to the news — taking these forecasts seriously, and recognizing that this isn’t only about polar bears, but about them. [more]
