Event Update For 2019-12-11
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.

2019-12-11 - Portents of runaway greenhouse warming:
http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/2019/12/the-portent-of-runaway-greenhouse-warming.html
Quote: "Hansen (2010) concludes: 'if we burn all reserves of oil, gas, and coal, there's a substantial chance that we will initiate the runaway greenhouse. If we also burn the tar sands and tar shale, I believe the Venus syndrome [runaway greenhouse warming] is a dead certainty'. Stephen Hawking (2017) appears to agree with Hansen’s warning, stating: 'if the US pulls out of the Paris climate agreement it may lead to runaway global warming, eventually turning Earth's atmosphere into something resembling Venus'."
Note: I don't think the Earth will turn into a replica of Venus. I do think we are having a repeat of the Permian-Triassic extinction event, the 'Great Dying', and that will eliminate human beings (along with most other life forms) from the surface of the planet. The reason I don't think we will initiate runaway greenhouse warming to the extent that we turn Earth into something like Venus is that we'll all be dead before we're able to do that much damage. Once food production plummets, human population will nosedive, civilization will collapse, hundreds of nuclear plants will go kablooey and our emissions will nosedive along with our population. The Earth will be saved from becoming like Venus by our extinction. It may still take 30 million years for the Earth to fully recover though, as it did after the Great Dying...

The countdown to collapse continues, Jonny. Many think an economic slump or sudden dip will initiate the whole house of cards coming down. Others think a natural disaster or some other such environmental degradation will cause it. All we know for sure is that it's well on the way.

Corporate giant sells Aussie water rights to Canadian fund during one of worst droughts in history
https://www.sott.net/article/425656-Corporate-giant-sells-Aussie-water-rights-to-Canadian-fund-during-one-of-worst-droughts-in-history
A multi-billion dollar Singaporean food company is selling 89,000 megalitres of Australian water to a Canadian pension fund. The mega sale of Australian permanent water rights comes as the country is crippled by one of the worst droughts in its history.
On Tuesday, NSW brought in a complete ban on hoses as part of the toughest water restrictions implemented for more than a decade.
But no such problem existed for food and agriculture giant Olam International, which sold the 89billion litres of permanent water rights for an astonishing $490 million. The company sold it to an entity associated with the Public Sector Pension Investment Board, one of Canada's largest pension investment managers, according to Straits Times.
It will use the water to irrigate almond trees, in a business venture likely to draw criticism over foreign ownership of farms and water.
The water rights are in the lower Murray-Darling Basin. [more]
