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.

Quote: "A man estimated to be in his 60s was found dead inside of his Westwego home Monday night (July 31) after firefighters responded to a call of a 'man in a wheelchair on fire,' according to Westwego fire officials."
Quote: "Investigators said he was trapped on a medical scooter, similar to a motorized wheelchair, in the hall of his home on Avenue A. Now the State Fire Marshall’s office is looking at the scooter a potential source of the fire."
Quote: "So far, the investigation is backing up what neighbors believe they saw when they tried to rescue their friend. 'When I got there, he was sitting in his chair and he was burning from the bottom up in flames,' Mark Hahn said. 'He was moaning and I couldn’t get him out.' Thompson said no other ignition sources near the scooter have been found so far, but said the investigation is still in the preliminary stage."

http://www.channel3000.com/news/dog-dies-after-swimming-in-lake-mendota/596374824
http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/Dog-Mysteriously-Dies-After-Swimming-in-Wisconsin-Lake-437906303.html
Quote: "Holmes said while Lucy was being treated at the veterinary clinic another dog was brought in. 'We heard there was another incident of another dog coming in after swimming at Marshall Park,' Holmes said."
Quote: "A check of conditions of Madison beaches shows no reported signs of blue-green algae."
Quote: "Lindsey Holmes told NBC affiliate WMTV she took her Cavalier King Charles to Lake Mendota for a swim near the Memorial Union Terrace in Madison Sunday afternoon. Soon after, her dog began vomiting and foaming at the mouth. She rushed her pup to a veterinary hospital in the area where the dog later died. Holmes said her dog was 3 years old and healthy."
Quote: "Holmes also claimed another dog came into the vet while she was there with similar symptoms after swimming in the lake. The UW-Veterinary Hospital reported two dogs did die at the hospital following a swim in the water but experts believe the dogs' deaths 'were unfortunate and coincidence.'"
Note: Quite a coincidence - two dogs enter the same lake on the same day, both foam at the mouth and die. Coincidence, suuuuure...

Night sky guide for August 2017
https://watchers.news/2017/08/01/night-sky-guide-august-2017/
Solar eclipse chasers, especially those living in the United States, have waited for this month for many years. On August 21, a rare, once-in-a-lifetime event for viewers in the US will make the Moon completely block out the Sun - total solar eclipse, revealing the Sun's beautiful outer atmosphere known as the corona. The last total solar eclipse visible in the continental United States occurred in 1979 and the next one will not take place until 2024.
The second eclipse of the month, this time a partial lunar one, will take place on August 7, on the same day our Moon reaches its full phase. This eclipse will be visible throughout most of eastern Africa, central Asia, the Indian Ocean, and Australia. [lots more]
