Event Update For 2020-09-02




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.

2020-09-02 - Wildfires hasten another climate crisis, homeowners who can't get insurance:
http://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/02/climate/wildfires-insurance.html
http://www.bizjournals.com/sanjose/news/2020/09/02/california-wildfires-climate-crisis-homeowners.html

Quote: "Insurers are widely expected to continue their retreat, potentially devastating the housing market if homes become essentially uninsurable."

Quote: "The insurance crisis is making California a test case for the financial dangers of climate change nationwide, as wildfires, floods and other disasters create economic shocks well beyond the physical damage of the disasters themselves. Those changes have already started to affect home prices, the mortgage industry and the bond market."

Note: The destabilizing and increasingly hostile climate will wreak havoc on insurance. That's been happening for years but obviously they're really feeling the pain now that things have escalated to the point that they have. But we're just getting started. It's all downhill from here...

    Good Friday morning Jonny, everyone.

    This has been going on since i got back from CA. i think i'm slipping into dementia or something, as i keep making the same inept mistakes, erasing long, well crafted comments, then completely losing my shit and cursing extensively. i got so frustrated that i stopped commenting altogether (crowd: "he stopped commenting").

    Is the F-35 a Trillion-Dollar Mistake? [uhm . . YEAH!!]
    https://getpocket.com/explore/item/is-the-f-35-a-trillion-dollar-mistake

    While the Pentagon’s official line is that, after years of difficulties, the F-35 is meeting high expectations, skeptics both outside and within the military say it’s turning out to be a two-decades-in-the-making, trillion-dollar mistake.[more]

    Carbon emissions from this year’s wildfires burning in the Arctic Circle have already outstripped 2019’s record.

    Arctic wildfires emit 35% more CO2 so far in 2020 than for whole of 2019
    https://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2020/09/carbon-emissions-from-this-years.html

    The latest data, provided by the EU’s Copernicus atmosphere monitoring service, shows that up to 24 August 245 megatonnes of CO2 had been released from wildfires this year. The figure for the whole of last year was 181 megatonnes.


    The peak number of active fire observations was about 600 in late July, compared with 400 in 2019. The average equivalent number between 2003 and 2018 was about 100. Copernicus estimated that 205 megatonnes of CO2 was emitted between 1 June and 31 July alone. The wildfires coincided with a heatwave in Siberia, where temperatures soared to more than 30C (86F) in some areas. [more]
