Event Update For 2019-12-10
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.

2019-12-10 - The Arctic may have crossed key threshold, emitting billions of tons of carbon into the air, in a long-dreaded climate feedback:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2019/12/10/arctic-may-have-crossed-key-threshold-emitting-billions-tons-carbon-into-air-long-dreaded-climate-feedback/
http://heraldpublicist.com/arctic-may-have-crossed-key-threshold-emitting-several-tons-of-carbon/
http://twitter.com/capitalweather/status/1204478043655409666
http://www.democraticunderground.org/10142406134
Quote: "Especially noteworthy is the report’s conclusion that the Arctic already may have become a net emitter of planet-warming carbon emissions due to thawing permafrost, which would only accelerate global warming. Permafrost is the carbon-rich frozen soil that covers 24 percent of the Northern Hemisphere’s land mass, encompassing vast stretches of territory across Alaska, Canada, Siberia and Greenland."
Quote: "Warming temperatures allow microbes within the soil to convert permafrost carbon into the greenhouse gases — carbon dioxide and methane — which can be released into the air and accelerate warming. "
Note: Say, all four of those regions have experienced unusual fires, some just flat-out gigantic, in recent years. Regions start emitting flammable methane, and the same regions start burning. That doesn't sound like a coincidence to me...
2019-12-10 - Greenland now losing ice 7 times faster than it was in 1992, Antarctic ice melt accelerating too:
http://www.bbc.com/news/av/science-environment-50701438/greenland-melting-faster-than-expected
http://www.businessinsider.com/greenland-ice-loss-rate-7-times-higher-2019-12
http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/50729990
Quote: "Greenland is losing ice seven times faster than it was in the 1990s. The assessment comes from the Imbie group - an international team of polar scientists who've reviewed all the satellite observations of the past 25 years. The researchers say Greenland's contribution to sea-level rise is now tracking the more pessimistic projections for future change."
Quote: "The ominous news about Greenland comes in the wake of another worrisome finding: Antarctica's melting is also speeding up. In the 1980s, Antarctica lost 40 billion tons of ice annually. In the last decade, that number jumped to an average of 252 billion tons per year — just a hair behind Greenland's new average."
Note: A 600% increase in the rate of ice melt in just 27 years. Yep, the 'catastrophe curve' is going vertical now. Long before that curve reaches its apex, every human being on the surface of this planet will be pushing daisies...

Quote: "Earlier, I had seen a man in a gas mask on my ferry across the harbour; a woman in a face-mask was buying a train ticket at Circular Quay. All across the city people are coughing and rubbing red eyes. Smoke alarms are being triggered, sending fire engines racing around the city to false alarms. And everywhere, people - online and in the murky streets - are asking why politicians seem so unconcerned."

The Final Full Moon Of This Decade On 12/12 At Exactly 12:12 AM Is Precisely 6,666 Days From 9/11
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/the-final-full-moon-of-this-decade-on-12-12-at-exactly-1212-am-is-precisely-6666-days-from-9-11
A few days ago, hardly anyone had heard about “the 12/12 warning”, but now the Internet is buzzing with lots of speculation about what it could possibly mean. On December 12th at exactly 12:12 AM eastern time, we witnessed the very last full moon of this entire decade. As I detailed yesterday, there is only a 1 in 691,920 chance that the last full moon of this decade would fall on that exact minute in time. And many have also pointed out that the individual digits of “2019” also add up to a total of 12. You can believe that all of this is just some sort of grand coincidence if you want, but a lot of people out there are really freaking out about this.
What makes this strange confluence of numbers even stranger is the fact that it happened exactly 6,666 days from 9/11.
If you go to timeanddate.com, there is a handy calculator that allows you to instantly calculate the number of days between two specific dates.
Just a little while ago, I typed in 9/11/2001 as the start date and 12/12/19 as the end date, and it gave me a result of precisely 6,666 days.
Isn’t that weird?
And of course two sixes add up to 12, and so adding up the digits in that time span gives us the number 12 two additional times.
As I cautioned yesterday, I don’t know what significance all of this may have. But it is interesting to note that this extremely intriguing confluence of numbers only occurred in the eastern time zone of the United States. And this has happened just as the debate on the articles of impeachment is about to begin in Washington. [more]

ReplyDeleteNew trouble on Whidbey Island as chemicals from Naval Air Station contaminate a creek
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2019/12/10/new-trouble-on-whidbey-island-as-chemicals-from-naval-air-station-contaminate-a-creek/
The channel called Clover Valley Creek frequently floods, depositing sediments and possibly chemical contaminants on some of the farm’s low-lying acreage used for grazing and crops. And downstream, the pollution makes its way into Puget Sound’s Dugualla Bay, a rearing area for young chinook salmon.
“We don’t know what this is doing” Christensen said. “And that’s a big problem.”
The chemicals — perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS — have emerged as a pervasive pollution problem, one that for decades largely escaped regulatory scrutiny. [pfff- 'cause they WEREN'T LOOKING!]
There are more than 4,700 compounds, found in products ranging from carpet to food wrappers to dental floss. And, since being introduced in the mid-20th century, they have made their way into public waterways and seeped underground into drinking-water wells, including some spots on Whidbey Island.
For Christensen and other residents along the creek, surface-water pollution also is now a concern.
Scientists are trying to better define the health risks the chemicals pose and at what levels, which is a key question since a survey indicates they are present in the blood serums of 98 percent of Americans. Meanwhile, federal and state officials seek to determine the scope of the pollution, and what to do about it, a task made more difficult since Congress has not listed PFAS as pollutants under the federal Clean Water Act or designated them as hazardous under the federal Superfund program. [they will do NOTHING about it]
Firefighting foams used to combat aircraft fuel-based blazes at the air station and many other military installations, have been a major source of PFAS pollution. Defense Department investigations have found PFAS chemicals migrated into ground and surface water at 400 current and former military installations, including Whidbey Island.
The biggest regulatory effort, to date, has focused on drinking-water pollution from two of the PFAS firefighting-foam chemicals, which already have been phased out by U.S. manufacturers amid mounting concerns.
These chemicals — PFOA and PFOS — may increase the risk for kidney cancer, immune-system disorders and other health problems, including impaired learning development of infants, according to the federal Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. As of yet, there is no regulatory consensus in the United States on what constitutes a safe amount of these two PFAS chemicals in drinking water and there are no federal standards to require a cleanup of drinking water.
[Note: these are the same chemicals featured in the new film “Dark Waters”] [more]

Climate change: Greenland ice melt ‘is accelerating’
ReplyDeletehttp://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2019/12/10/climate-change-greenland-ice-melt-is-accelerating/
They say Greenland’s contribution to sea-level rise is currently tracking what had been regarded as a pessimistic projection of the future.
It means an additional 7cm of ocean rise could now be expected by the end of the century from Greenland alone.
This threatens to put many millions more people in low-lying coastal regions at risk of flooding.
It’s estimated roughly a billion live today less than 10m above current high-tide lines, including 250 million below 1m.
“The simple formula is that around the planet, six million people are brought into a flooding situation for every centimetre of sea-level rise. So, when you hear about a centimetre rise, it does have impacts,” he told BBC News.

Over 9 million bags of nuclear cleanup waste piled up across Fukushima Pref.
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2019/12/10/over-9-million-bags-of-nuclear-cleanup-waste-piled-up-across-fukushima-pref/
The number of bags of waste from decontamination efforts around the stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant reached a little under 9.16 million as of the end of September according to Fukushima Prefecture and the Environment Ministry.
The 1-cubic-meter bags are found at some 114,700 interim storage or decontamination sites across the prefecture. In the town of Tomioka — covered by a nuclear disaster evacuation order — mounds of bags have grown so tall that they obscure the power shovels used to move and stack the waste, the black balls covering every sliver of landscape. [people in charge couldn't even IMAGINE this scenario that protesters shouted at them, wrote to them, asked them about at local hearings - THEY CHOSE THIS WAY despite all that and more evidence against nuclear power (medical, environmental effects, hydrologic trouble, etc.) - "nobody cays, misteh"]

Newly identified jet-stream pattern could imperil global food supplies
http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/2019/12/09/newly-identified-jet-stream-pattern-could-imperil-global-food-supplies/
Scientists have identified systematic meanders in the globe-circling northern jet stream that have caused simultaneous crop-damaging heat waves in widely separated breadbasket regions-a previously unquantified threat to global food production that, they say, could worsen with global warming.
The research shows that certain kinds of waves in the atmospheric circulation can become amplified and then lock in place for extended periods, triggering the concurrent heat waves. Affected parts of North America, Europe and Asia together produce a quarter of the world food supply. The study appears this week in the journal Nature Climate Change.
“We found a 20-fold increase in the risk of simultaneous heat waves in major crop-producing regions when these global-scale wind patterns are in place,” said lead author Kai Kornhuber, a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University’s Earth Institute. “Until now, this was an underexplored vulnerability in the food system. During these events there actually is a global structure in the otherwise quite chaotic circulation. The bell can ring in multiple regions at once.”
Kornhuber warned that the heat waves will almost certainly become worse in coming decades, as the world continues to warm. The meanders that cause them could also potentially become more pronounced, though this is less certain. Because food commodities are increasingly traded on a global scale, either effect could lead to food shortages even in regions far from those directly affected by heat waves. [more]

I don't think he was saying that it crashed BECAUSE it ran out of fuel. He was saying that it must have crashed because so much time had passed that it couldn't still be in the air somewhere. If it ran out of fuel then they would have hit the radio with a mayday saying they were ditching the plane, out of fuel, and here are the coordinates, so they could possibly (but not very likely in that area) be rescued in time. So the two big questions remain open: why did it crash, and why didn't the pilots issue a mayday on the way down?
