"If we pursue our present fatal path, you will drive the ignorant to support coups d'état at one moment, and swell the forces of street rioters at the next, and we shall be left exposed to the pitiless fury of irresponsible mobs trying to avenge themselves by looting among the ruins." -- Léon Gambetta

Event Update For 2020-06-11
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.

2020-06-11 - Unknown rotten egg odor hits apartment building in Hialeah (Florida), 8 miles from the coast:
http://wsvn.com/news/local/miami-dade/residents-evacuated-as-hazmat-crew-investigates-gas-smell-at-hialeah-apartments/
Quote: "The smell of gas at an apartment complex in Hialeah prompted crews to evacuate a building while they investigated. Hialeah Fire Rescue crews responded to the building along West 29th Street, near Ninth Avenue, right across from Walker Park, Thursday afternoon. Roughly a dozen families were evacuated and the electricity was shut off while crews searched for the source, but they were unable to find it."
Note: With a 30 MPH wind it'd take about 15 minutes for a cloud of poison gas to blow from the ocean to this building...

"They had night frost, mostly in mid-May. I, therefore, expect 30 to 40% lower regional production."
"The temperature of about -2ºC has been disastrous. Many of the berries froze. There will be large differences between companies. Some have no damage at all, while others have a 70% loss. The same is true for northern Germany and Poland. This has made an easy start impossible. The market is currently almost empty.

ReplyDeleteSevere hailstorm in Alicante, Spain hits Vinalopó grape production
https://www.sott.net/article/436264-Severe-hailstorm-in-Alicante-Spain-hits-Vinalopo-grape-production
As reported recently by sources of the Young Agricultural Producers Association (Asaja) of Alicante, the severe hail storm recorded on Monday, June 8 in the Alicante region of Medio Vinalopó has taken a toll on table grape crops in this area. The hail, which fell mostly in the municipalities of Aspe, Monforte del Cid and Novelda, has caused damages estimated at between 30% and 40% of the production in some specific areas, as is the case of the Paraje de Monteagudo, in Novelda.
In Agost, "the damage to crops, estimated at between 10% and 20% of the total, has been caused by one of the worst rabbit pests in recent years," said the aforementioned sources, which attributed the animal's proliferation to "the prohibition of hunting during the COVID-19 pandemic." [more]

Head of Naval Aviation Schools Command, Another Navy Pilot Killed in Plane Crash
https://www.yahoo.com/news/head-naval-aviation-schools-command-202957840.html
Two naval aviators were killed this week when their civilian single-engine aircraft crashed in Alabama.
The pair, according to the paper, were on their way from Jasper, Alabama, to Pensacola, Florida, where the officers were based. Jasper is about 300 miles north of Pensacola.
The pilots declared an emergency landing at about 4:40 p.m. Wednesday, Dallas County Coroner Alan Dailey told the Times-Journal. They were trying to land at a civilian airport that had been an old Air Force base that closed in the 1970s.
"A crop duster was up and spotted the plane," Dailey told the paper. "There was nothing that could be done."
Stockman declined to provide any additional details about the crash, citing an ongoing investigation being handled by the National Transportation Safety Board. [more; engine failure?]

The COVID-19 pandemic is unleashing a tidal wave of plastic waste

[just add it to the microplastics, radiation, garbage, farm run-off, solid waste, sewage, discarded fishing gear and all the rest that goes into the ocean]
The deeper worry is that COVID-19 will reverse the momentum of a years-long global battle to cut down on single-use plastic.
[which clearly isn't working]
A glut of new, throwaway plastic is apparent worldwide, from California, where Gov. Gavin Newsom temporarily lifted a ban on single-use grocery bags over concerns the virus could be transmitted via reusable bags, to Asian cities that struggled to manage their trash even before the pandemic.
In fast-growing Asian economies where waste collection and recycling systems have failed to keep pace with rising amounts of rubbish, used plastic is often dumped near waterways or incinerated, fouling the air, water and soil.
Even Hong Kong, one of the wealthiest cities in the world, pours 70% of its waste into landfills. [more]

Mosquitos are the deadliest animals in the world and have taken thousands of lives through illnesses like malaria, West Nile, Zika, and more.
As the weather gets warmer, health officials are warning about Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE), a rare disease that can cause an inflammation of the brain. The number of cases in the United States spiked from six to 38 between 2018 and 2019.
The disease kills 30% percent of those infected. Those who survive may still live with neurological disabilities.
Climate change, increased rainfall, and travel can contribute to the increased number of cases of the disease.
There is no vaccine for EEE; the best way to prevent the disease is to prevent mosquito bites. [more; hey thanks . .]

Chesapeake’s Demise Marks End of Shale Model That Changed the World

Jessica Rose-Standafer Owens was exploring the muddy banks of a river near Charleston, South Carolina when she came upon a shark tooth that she instantly realized was larger than normal.
She had discovered a tooth that once belonged to a Megalodon — a massive prehistoric predator that grew to be "between 15 and 18 meters in length, three times longer than the largest recorded great white shark," reports London's Natural History Museum.
Like every other part of the Megalodon shark, the extinct animal's teeth were also very large. The tooth Owens found measured 5.75 inches and weighed 15.9 ounces — just under a pound. [more; wait, ONE TOOTH weighed a pound? holy SHIT!]

Beijing goes into 'wartime mode' and locks down after a spike in coronavirus cases emerge at a wholesale market

A district in Beijing discovered a cluster of novel coronavirus cases tied to a major wholesale market this week and said it was going into "wartime emergency mode."
Out of 517 people tested at the Xinfadi wholesale market in the southwest district of Fengtai, 45 tested positive but were not showing symptoms, according to Beijing's Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
The spike in infections has prompted the capital to immediately ban inter-province tourism, shut schools, and suspend sports events.

The world hit another new record high for heat-trapping carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, despite reduced emissions because of the coronavirus pandemic, scientists announced.
Atmospheric carbon dioxide reached a seasonal peak of 417.1 parts per million (ppm) for 2020 in May, the highest monthly reading ever recorded, according to scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego, who used measurements at Mauna Loa Observatory.
