Event Update For 2016-10-18





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.

2016-10-18 - Underwater forests dying off hard near New Zealand:
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2016/10/tasmanias-disappearing-underwater.html

Quote: "It was one of the world’s great marine ecosystems. Stretching hundreds of kilometres along the eastern coastline of Australia, it provided shelter to a multitude of fish, algae and crustaceans and for many divers was considered a must-see spectacular. But this year a massive underwater heatwave smashed it into oblivion. This is not the Great Barrier Reef, but its southern equivalent; an underwater jungle that in the middle of last century ran the length of Tasmania’s East Coast. The trees, often more than 30m tall, were Macrocystis pyrifera – giant kelp – the world’s largest seaweed."

  1. Mornin' Jonny. Transformers popping like balloons anymore (especially in the past week where you documented 6 blowing up at once somewhere).

    A thought occurred to me this morning as I read about yet another building that had been renovated going up in flames. Perhaps the wooden studs in the walls have adsorbed H2S and/or CH4 and when electrical outlets are screwed or nailed onto them, hell - just the nails and screws themselves - cause a fire through reaction.

    Closing in on 2000 tractor trailers demolished by fire this year.

  2. Now here's a guy educated in economics (PhD) and law (JD)writing about Climate Change! [Everybody's gettin' into the act!] He makes some good points, but - as always - thinks that there's still "hope" that we can "change."

    [sooner or later, everyone is going to realize that it's far too late to "do anything" about any of this and that our run as a species is over]

    Update: Typhoon Haima kills at least 8 in the Philippines; tens of thousands of homes destroyed
    https://www.sott.net/article/331627-Update-Typhoon-Haima-kills-at-least-8-in-the-Philippines-tens-of-thousands-of-homes-destroyed

    "Almost every house here has been damaged," governor Manuel Mamba told ABS CBN television.

    At least eight people had been confirmed dead, according to Edgar Allan Tabell, director of the national government's disaster information coordinating centre in Manila.

    But with authorities in many devastated areas still unable to report back because of power and communication lines being cut, the death toll was expected to rise. [more]

    [I'm surprised there's a tree left standing anywhere in the Philippines after all these huge typhoons.]

    https://www.sott.net/article/331671-Methane-gas-seep-discovered-at-the-Cascadia-Subduction-Zone

    A recent deep ocean mapping survey has learned that a geologically-active strip of seafloor called the Cascadia Subduction Zone is bubbling methane like mad. It could be one of the most active methane seeps on the planet.

  5. Opening night for the Social Lounge in West Chester - jazz in the front room, hockey and baseball on the widescreens, service is slow (it takes a week or so before the crews know their routes and positions). Ya wouldn't know that anything was wrong anywhere, being here.
