Event Update For 2017-02-27





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.

2017-02-27 - Unknown odor sickens several dozen people at business park in Hanover Township (Pennsylvania):
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=HZ-20170228-57323-USA

Quote: "Complaints of a strong odor Monday inside a business park along Route 22 just north of Bethlehem caused 400 people to be evacuated and sent several dozen to area hospitals with complaints of nausea and vomiting. While emergency crews filled the parking lot at 90 S. Commerce Way with ambulances, firefighters combed through the building with hand-held air measuring units to try to track down the scent that caused a flurry of 911 calls, Northampton County dispatchers say. The building sits on 7.4 acres in Hanover Township, Northampton County, and as crews searched inside the building, evacuees outside complained of nausea and vomiting, with several sitting in a grassy area until paramedics could tend to them. The parking lot soon became a triage unit with different-colored tarps for potential victims to be laid out on. Officials said 31 people were taken to area hospitals for further evaluation, and UGI spokesman Joe Swope said 400 were evacuated from the building. But as of Monday evening, exactly what caused the odor remained a mystery, said Township Manager John Finnigan."

Note: Sounds similar to an event in June of 2014 when a large cloud of 'toxic gas of unknown origin' hit coastal Rayong (Thailand) in the wee hours, sending thousands of people puking and fleeing their homes, mentioned in the 2014-06-08 update. Nothing to worry about, just random areas around the planet being hit by poison gas. Well, nothing to worry about unless you're one of those don't-wanna-die kind of people...

Quote: "A boat and car inside the shed were damaged but no one was injured. The damage bill was estimated at $300,000 and the cause traced to an overheating electrical item in the boat."

Note: So the URL was misleading and the boat fire wasn't arson. The other fire, a burning minibus, might not have been arson either for that matter, since I highly doubt they eliminated accidental causes like hydrogen sulfide's reactivity with copper, especially electrified copper. Wee hours, coastal city, vehicles going up in flames. These are the 155th, 156th, 157th and 158th boats/ships to burn/explode in 2017...

Note: People are randomly dropping dead, having seizures and losing consciousness. When it's the latter, losing consciousness, what you're doing at the time can determine whether you live or die. If you lose consciousness practicing a magic trick, maybe you die. If you're outside and it's hot, you bake to death. If it's cold, you freeze to death. If you're driving, you crash. If you're swimming, you drown. If you're using a chainsaw, your brains might get splattered all over the place. If you're leaning over a railing, you fall and maybe die. Etc, etc.

    At least 2 dead after tornadoes touch down in central US

    Tornadoes touched down in the upper Midwest and northern Arkansas on Tuesday, killing at least two people, as a spring-like storm system posed a risk to 45 million people.
    Compact but strong storms known as supercells raked parts of the central U.S., causing damage from Arkansas to Iowa and Illinois. Wind-whipped wildfires destroyed homes in Texas.

  3. That Midwest storm ripped through Missouri yesterday and last night. Some cars were blown off the road on I-55 and I had tornado warning after tornado warning here until like 3:30 AM this morning. Storm was a-crackling and a-thundering. Cats went and hid, and I thought about joining them for a while there!

    Is Something Strange Happening Inside The Earth?
    http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/is-something-strange-happening-inside-the-earth

    Why are “giant fountains of lava” suddenly pouring out of some of the most dangerous volcanoes on the entire planet, and why are so many long dormant volcanoes suddenly roaring back to life? 

    Right now, something is pushing magma up through the crust of the Earth at a number of key spots around the planet.  On the island of Sicily, the “giant fountains of lava” that are coming out of Mt. Etna can be seen 30 kilometers away

    On the other side of the world, a constant stream of molten rock has been springing out of Guatemala’s “Volcano of Fire” since February 25th

    And in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, a “firehose of lava” has been pouring out of the Kilauea Volcano since December 31st.

    Last month, Indonesia’s Mount Sinabung in the southern hemisphere erupted seven times in the space of a single day, and meanwhile authorities in the northern hemisphere were warning us that four of Iceland’s biggest volcanoes are preparing to erupt.
    Indonesia and Iceland are about as far apart as you can get, and yet they are both being affected by this worldwide phenomenon. [more]

  5. ALL ABOARD Carbon Sequestration aka. Deepest Burial
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2017/02/all-aboard-carbon-sequestration-aka.html

    Oil has been squeezed sideways into an ever tighter trading range held up by record hedge fund speculative buying and held down by record inventories...There's only one problem, speculator volume has collapsed

    "It was a bad time for gasoline demand to implode"

    The world's largest and most profitable oil stock, has left the party following its historically colossal 19.3% reserves writedown last week.

    In other words at these low prices, Peak oil is becoming a reality, as over-invested capital goes the way of the Hegemonic jobless consumer:

    In addition, for the second straight year, Exxon failed to replace all the reserves it pumped—in 2016, it replaced just 65% of its produced reserves. In 2015, it replaced just 67%. Prior to these years, Exxon had replaced at least 100% of its production every year since 1993. [more]

    As global food demand rises, climate change is hitting our staple crops
    http://theconversation.com/as-global-food-demand-rises-climate-change-is-hitting-our-staple-crops-73360

    Scientists and farmers will need to act on multiple fronts to counter falling crop yields and feed more people. As with previous agricultural revolutions, we need a new set of plant characteristics to meet the challenge.
    When it comes to the staple crops – wheat, rice, maize, soybean, barley and sorghum – research has found changes in rainfall and temperature explain about 30% of the yearly variation in agricultural yields. All six crops responded negatively to increasing temperatures – most likely associated with increases in crop development rates and water stress. In particular, wheat, maize and barley show a negative response to increased temperatures. But, overall, rainfall trends had only minor effects on crop yields in these studies.

    Google restores Natural News website to search results: Statement from the Health Ranger
    https://www.sott.net/article/344030-Google-restores-Natural-News-website-to-search-results-Statement-from-the-Health-Ranger

    After six days of being blacklisted by Google, the NaturalNews.com website has been restored to Google's search results. The action by Google follows the largest and most vocal backlash against Google's de-listing of any website in the history of the company, and it has sparked many new discussions and debates about search engines, censorship and free speech.

    All of us at Natural News — as well as our many millions of fans — are grateful for Google's decision to restore the NaturalNews.com website, but we are also deeply troubled by the unjustified blacklisting of Natural News and what it means for free speech across the 'net.

    For the record, there was never any allegation or evidence that Natural News had intentionally violated Google's webmaster guidelines. While Google said we were being flagged for a so-called "sneaky mobile redirect" on a very small number of pages in a subdomain (blogs.naturalnews.com) which were created by outside bloggers, Google went to the extraordinary step of banning the entire NaturalNews.com root domain and all its subdomains — a step that would never have been applied to CNN, Huffington Post or other popular news websites. In fact, a Natural News investigation showed that violations identified involving websites like HuffPo, Forbes and CNN did not result in the same kind of blacklisting that was applied to Natural News.

    Furthermore, while Google did make an effort to provide us with one URL that they said flagged this mobile redirect, to date there hasn't been a single SEO expert or engineer who could reproduce the supposed redirect issue.

    Even more disturbingly, when we went to the Google product webmaster forum to ask for help identifying this issue, we were insulted, mocked and accused of lying by Google's supporters who behaved like a pack of jackals rather than search engine professionals.

    No evidence, no charges but you're "guilty" because they say you are [more]
