Event Update For 2018-07-15




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.

    BLACK BEAR NEWS 7.16.18 At least six dead, 1,500 hospitalized as heat wave hits Japan

    How rising seas could cause your next internet outage
    http://www.fasterthanexpected.com/blog/

    The internet seems magical and intangible sometimes. But the reality is, you rely on physical, concrete objects — like giant data centers and miles of underground cables — to stay connected.
    All that infrastructure is at risk of being submerged. In just 15 years, roughly 4,000 miles of fiber-optic cables in U.S. coastal cities could go underwater, potentially causing internet outages.

    In New York City, about 20 percent of fibers distributed throughout the city are predicted to flood within 15 years–along with 32 percent of the fibers that connect the metropolis to other cities and 43 data centers. The research suggests that Seattle and Miami are especially vulnerable, along with many coastal areas.

    On top of that, much of the internet’s physical infrastructure is aging. Paul Barford says a lot of it was designed to last only a few decades and is now nearing the end of its lifespan.

    Five-foot "meteotsunami" strikes Spanish resorts in Majorca and Menorca causing chaos flooding bars and covering beachside roads (video)

    Latest radiation count from Alaskan waters shows halibut and all salmon measure higher levels of radiation than previous years
    http://www.thebigwobble.org/2018/07/latest-radiation-count-from-alaskan.html

    Just a quick update on the seafood radiation issue in Alaska. Today I checked red (Sockeye) salmon and halibut. The halibut is showing higher levels of radiation than the red salmon. But at this time, the red salmon, which should be in our rivers in abundance, are so far, very low in their return numbers. Are they just late or are they dead?

    It has been my experience that the red salmon have read lower for radiation than the pinks (Humpback/Humpy), kings (Chinook), silvers (Coho) and Chum salmon. I believe this is due to the fact the red salmon are a vegetarian salmon.

    The radiation level for the red salmon and halibut are higher than in previous years. I will do my best to keep you posted throughout the summer and I encourage everyone to NOT eat seafood.

    Bill started measuring the radiation level of fish two years after the Fukushima disaster in 2011

    By the second year after the Fukushima incident, all the salmon he scanned read radioactive.

    He had seen a steady increase in radiation levels of salmon through last year with not one salmon failing to register some contamination.

    Last year he checked halibut which came from local waters.
    They, too, registered radiation. [more]

    Can Carbon Farming Reverse Climate Change? [NO!]

    [all kinds of "feel good" talk, but it's not going to help]

    there’s quite a bit skepticism as to whether carbon farming can actually create a significant, worthwhile impact on greenhouse gas remediation if we can’t scale upward. [more]

    The Trade War Is Already Having A Huge Impact On The U.S. Economy
    http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/the-trade-war-is-already-having-a-huge-impact-on-the-u-s-economy

    The trade war has barely just begun, and yet significant ripple effects are already being felt all across the U.S. economy. Once thriving businesses are on the verge of failure, workers are being laid off, and some sectors of the economy are witnessing enormous price hikes.

    U.S. consumers are already stretched to the max, and they will not be able to easily absorb these price increases.

    Meanwhile, farm incomes all across the interior of the country are going to be absolutely devastated by this trade war.

    The longer it lasts, the worse things will get, and ultimately it could tip the U.S. economy into the worst recession that any of us have ever experienced. [more]

    Cape Town’s harrowing journey to the brink of water catastrophe
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/07/cape-towns-harrowing-journey-to-brink.html

    This is what a water panic looks like in a major global city.

    People hoard water. They queue for hours, well into the night, to fill jugs at natural springs. Like mad Christmas shoppers, they clear supermarkets of bottled water. They descend on stockers before they can fill the shelves.

    Restaurants, malls, and offices shut off bathroom faucets and install hand sanitizer dispensers. [more]

    "I did not hold my expectations high, since it's our first meaningful meeting. It was designed to have a warm-up nature, so that we can have more concrete talks in the future," Putin told Channel One Russia late on Monday. "But it turned out different, our discussion proved to be really thoughtful."

    The two leaders agreed to undertake joint efforts on fixing several outstanding problems, namely the conflict in eastern Ukraine and the issue of displaced people in Syria. On Ukraine, Russia and the US came up with "several new ideas," which are set to be discussed at "expert level," Putin revealed. [more]

    Trump administration deletes 20 years of critical online medical guidelines – “There is nothing else like it in the world”
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/07/trump-administration-deletes-20-years.html

    The Trump Administration is planning to eliminate a vast trove of medical guidelines that for nearly 20 years has been a critical resource for doctors, researchers and others in the medical community.

    Maintained by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality [AHRQ], part of the Department of Health and Human Services, the database is known as the National Guideline Clearinghouse [NGC], and it’s scheduled to “go dark,” in the words of an official there, on 16 July 2018. [The site is gone. You can see it as it was before Trump’s antiscience forces deleted it at archive.org: National Guideline Clearinghouse. –Des]

    Medical guidelines like those compiled by AHRQ aren’t something laypeople spend much time thinking about, but experts like Valerie King, a professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Director of Research at the Center for Evidence-based Policy at Oregon Health & Science University, said the NGC is perhaps the most important repository of evidence-based research available.

    Orcas of the Pacific Northwest are starving and disappearing – “It’s an ecosystem-wide problem”

    For the last three years, not one calf has been born to the dwindling pods of black-and-white killer whales spouting geysers of mist off the coast in the Pacific Northwest.
    Normally four or five calves would be born each year among this fairly unique urban population of whales — pods named J, K, and L. But most recently, the number of orcas here has dwindled to just 75, a 30-year-low in what seems to be an inexorable, perplexing decline. [more; heading for extinction]

    Death rates from liver cancer increased 43 percent for American adults from 2000 to 2016, according to a report released Tuesday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics. The increase comes even as mortality for all cancers combined has declined.

    Liver cancer death rates increased for both men and women 25 and older, as well as white, black and Hispanic people. Only Asians and Pacific Islanders saw a decrease in mortality from liver cancer. [more]
