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://phys.org/news/2019-12-lake-methane-emissions-prompt-rethink.html
Quote: "The research team from the University's College of Science analysed Lake Stechlin in north-eastern Germany and found that a significant amount of methane was being produced there in the well-oxygenated surface layer. It was also discovered that as the methane gas is produced at the surface in direct contact with air, the levels of emissions that travel directly into the atmosphere are also significant."

http://twitter.com/NSWRFS/status/1202125228735967237
Quote: "An emergency warning has been issued for the 230,000-hectare Gospers Mountain blaze on Sydney's northwestern outskirts as firefighters brace for a 'long and challenging day'. Strong westerly winds have been fanning the Gospers Mountain fire, with the possibility it could merge with the 6000-hectare Three Mile blaze near Wisemans Ferry."
Quote: "The actor Sam Neill tweeted that there was a sense of 'the end of days' about the country seen from the air, as his plane approached on Tuesday."
Note: Check out the map in the tweet. Around 80-90 percent of the fires are clustered along the coast. The further from the coast you go, the fewer fires there are, and vice versa. Sydney is virtually surrounded by fires...

The outflow of hydrogen from bowels of the Earth: Sasovo and Chernobyl. Safety of Nuclear Power Plants [ 18 Jan 2012 ]
http://hydrogen-future.com/en/syvorotkin-en/78-tchernobyl-en.html
Chernobyl
In our opinion, everything that happened in Sasovo was caused by hydrogen degassing of the Earth. To read our version in detail follow this link: “Hydrogen seeps have been discovered in the central area of the Russian Platform”.
The data we obtained leaves no doubt that hydrogen seeps from the bowels of the planet right now. It is also clear that this phenomenon spreads to new territories, the ones that recently haven’t had any traces of adverse effects associated with hydrogen, i.e. hydrogen degassing hasn’t stabilized yet, and it is clearly intensifying. Some facts indicate its cyclical nature and most likely we are witnessing the beginning of a new cycle, the one that has begun about 150 years ago and will last for the next several thousand years.
Since hydrogen degassing is a global phenomenon, catastrophes similar to Chernobyl disaster can take place all over the world, in places where nuclear reactors are located in areas with similar geological profile of sedimentary rocks. It is especially distressing to know that right now hydrogen degassing is intensifying (in terms of human, not geological, time). And it is not always possible to find hydrogen anomalies using satellite imagery. [more]

A 60-kilometre fire front is ravaging areas north of Sydney, as more than 100 blazes take hold amid deteriorating weather conditions. The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) warned "some fires were too big to put out" and the level of smoke was such that it was showing up on its radar as rain. The cause and the effect. They are all in a 60-kilometre stretch that runs from the Colo area in the Hawkesbury, north of Sydney, all the way up to near Singleton. There is just fire that whole way.
More than 680 homes have been destroyed by bushfires in NSW this season, the RFS confirmed. Almost 250 houses have been damaged, while more than 2,000 outbuildings have been destroyed or damaged. The updated totals came as the blazes burning north-west of Sydney joined to create what has been dubbed a "mega blaze" on Friday morning. [more]

The PUNCH gathered that the three victims were having a bath in a stream in the area to cleanse themselves spiritually when the fire started and subsequently burned two of them to death.
According to residents in the area, the pastor conducting the spiritual cleansing, upon sighting the fire, ran away and abandoned the victims.
The PUNCH had reported that the fire incident was caused by the activities of suspected vandals who ruptured the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation's pipeline in the area in a bid to steal fuel.
The ruptured pipeline was said to have been spilling fuel continuously, leading to the fire incident that razed four locations in the community. [more]

The robotic equipment failed. So they sent up humans for 4 days to finish the job.
Tepco needs a serious review over the initial dismantling plan for Fukushima.
Fukushima: Tepco sends workers to repair where robots failed. High radiation.
On December 3, workers were sent to the top of the exhaust stack (about 110 meters high) standing beside the Unit 1 and 2 buildings to finish cutting a cylinder body with an electric tool after the robotic infrastructure failed.
The workers at the top of 110-m high Fukushima Dai-ichi vent stack were exposed to an estimated 810 μSv, making this action an emergency response.
But officials first said radiation would not be above 300 μSv
According to TEPCO, the workers cut 1.1 meters out of the remaining 1.3 meters. The work resumed on Dec. 4 early morning due to forecast of strong winds.
Within the six hours of work, the workers were wearing masks covering their entire face to protect them from radioactive substances. According to officials, they were exposed to a maximum dose of 0.47 mSv.
Meanwhile Fukushima radiation dust is still coming in… And that’s not good for the Olympic Games 2020 [more]

US flu season arrives early, driven by an unexpected virus
https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-flu-season-arrives-early-163721378.html
The U.S. winter flu season is off to its earliest start in more than 15 years.
An early barrage of illness in the South has begun to spread more broadly, and there’s a decent chance flu season could peak much earlier than normal, health officials say. [more]
There are different types of flu viruses, and the one causing illnesses in most parts of the country is a surprise. It’s a version that normally doesn’t abound until March or April.
[so they couldn't POSSIBLY have guessed at the correct strain to make the current vaccines, so they're worthless and probably dangerous too]
In both of the previous two flu seasons, the flu vaccine performed poorly against the nasty predominant virus. It’s too early to say how well the vaccine is performing right now, Epperson said. [more; yeah, that's bullshit Mr. Epperson!]
Officials list pot vape brands reported in US outbreak
https://www.yahoo.com/news/officials-list-vape-products-most-191820843.html
Health officials investigating a nationwide outbreak of vaping illnesses have listed, for the first time, the vape brands most commonly linked to hospitalizations.
Dank Vapes was the brand used by 56% of the hospitalized patients nationwide.
Dank is not a licensed product coming from one business, it is empty packaging that can be ordered from Chinese internet sites. Illicit vaping cartridge makers can buy the empty packages and then fill them with whatever they choose.
Other product names at the top of the list from CDC were TKO (15%), Smart Cart (13%) and Rove (12%).
“It's not likely that a single brand is responsible for this outbreak,” said Brian King, a senior CDC official on the investigation. [more]

"I think she went out first, and she saw the mountain lion and her dog charged under her legs toward the mountain lion, and the mountain lion snapped it up."
The owner reportedly then tried to fend off the animal by punching it and trying to pry its jaws open.
Brian added: "She jumped on the mountain lion and tried to pry its jaws open to save her dog because she loves her dog so much.
"The whole time, she could hear her baby dying."
After attacking Pumbaa, the lion growled at the woman and she managed to escape. [more; brave woman got away with a minor cut]
