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.

"Unlivable!" The expected mass exodus is beginning: In the last six months more than 12 million people have been displaced with 80% of these displacements were caused by weather disasters: In 23 days of January 2021 Indonesia suffered 185 disasters
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2021/03/unlivable-expected-mass-exodus-is.html
The expected mass exodus is beginning. A new report reveals more than 12 million people have been internally displaced around the world since September 2020 mainly due to climate and weather-related disasters. In just 6 months, 12.6 million people, more than the population of Belgium have been displaced around the world. In just 23 days during January 2021 Indonesia suffered 185 disasters including two major earthquakes, seven volcano eruptions with a further 3 showing activity, as well as deadly tornadoes, landslides and floods killing and injuring thousands and displacing many more. These figures released two days ago by the Red Cross show just how desperate life is becoming for many people around the world thanks too increasing extreme weather events. [more]

It will be the first time that astronomers will be able to watch such a big asteroid pass so close to us. [more; not sure anyone will notice]

No more anal probes? Non-invasive skin swabs are enough to quickly detect Covid-19, new study finds
https://www.sott.net/article/450206-No-more-anal-probes-Non-invasive-skin-swabs-are-enough-to-quickly-detect-Covid-19-new-study-finds
In a new paper published by The Lancet's E Clinical Medicine, the researchers took sebum samples from 67 hospitalized patients, 30 of whom had tested positive for Covid-19 and 37 who had tested negative. Sebum is the fatty, oily, waxy substance produced by the body's sebaceous glands in areas such as the face, neck or back. Too little can cause dry, cracked skin while too much can cause various forms of acne.
The sebum samples were subjected to analysis via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results were then combined with a statistical modeling technique called Partial Least Squares to differentiate Covid-positive and -negative patient samples.
The University of Surrey researchers quickly found that Covid-positive patients had lower lipid levels than their Covid-negative counterparts. [more]

Climate Change Is Behind Ghost Forests Along the Coast
ReplyDeletehttps://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/climate-change-behind-ghost-forests-211435940.html
climate change is causing the ocean to eat into the East Coast; flooding coastal forest land from Virginia up to Massachusetts, and threatening other areas.
Matthew Hart
Wed, March 17, 2021, 5:14 PM
Over the past few months, scientists have continued to publish research outlining the destruction climate change may wreak soon. What could happen to Yellowstone’s Old Faithful geyser, for example, is kind of heartbreaking. Now, in an even darker report, scientists say climate change is causing a rise in “ghost forests” along the northeast coast of the US. And yes, they look super creepy.
Earther picked up on the new report, which researchers at Rutgers University in New Jersey recently released. The US Department of Agriculture hired on the researchers to surmise “the current state of knowledge” concerning how Northeastern US coastal forests are responding to impacts from climate change.
Scientists say so-called "ghost forests" are on the rise on the East Coast of the U.S. thanks to climate change.

Upon inspection—which consisted of analyzing scientific literature, interviewing forestry and biology experts, and convening relevant scientists—the researchers found that climate change is causing the ocean to eat into the East Coast; flooding coastal forest land from Virginia up to Massachusetts, and threatening other areas.

As the ocean water floods into these forests, it displaces native fresh water, which deciduous trees rely upon for sustenance. The salt water subsequently poisons the living trees, leaving a “ghost forest” of dead and dying timber in its wake. To make the scene even more eery [sic], the barren trees stick around; becoming purgatory versions of their former selves. [more]

Maine homeowners seek more time to sue over chemical contamination
https://www.yahoo.com/news/maine-homeowners-seek-more-time-224600138.html
Thirty years ago, Bruce Harrington was so concerned about the sludge being spread as fertilizer on a farm near his family's Fairfield home that he confronted the drivers of the trucks literally "drooling" with the foul-smelling waste.
An argument ensued. But Harrington eventually agreed to step aside after police who responded explained that the waste had been treated and "there wasn't any harm that was going to come to anybody."
Decades later, Harrington and his wife fought back tears Wednesday as they shared fears that their family's drinking water, their gardens and fruit trees, and even the pool used by their children and grandchildren were poisoned for years by "forever chemicals" that tested 350 times higher than state and federal safety limits.

How Industrial Fishing Creates More CO2 Emissions Than Air Travel
ReplyDeletehttps://www.yahoo.com/news/industrial-fishing-creates-more-co2-165440299.html
A troubling new report points to a previously overlooked source: an industrial fishing process practiced by dozens of countries around the world, including the United States, China, and the E.U.
The study, published today in the scientific journal Nature, is the first to calculate the carbon cost of bottom trawling, in which fishing fleets drag immense weighted nets along the ocean floor, scraping up fish, shellfish and crustaceans along with significant portions of their habitats.
According to calculations conducted by the report’s 26 authors, bottom trawling is responsible for one gigaton of carbon emissions a year—a higher annual total than (pre-pandemic) aviation emissions.

Meanwhile, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration is recalculating just what constitutes an average hurricane season. If it follows the usual 30-year update model, the new “normal” season would have 19% more named storms and major hurricanes.
