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.

2020-03-11 - Unknown odor hits school in Abingdon (Illinois):
http://www.galesburg.com/news/20200311/a-town-dismisses-early-over-mysterious-odor-area-determined-safe
http://www.reviewatlas.com/news/20200311/a-town-dismisses-early-over-mysterious-odor-area-determined-safe
Quote: "Abingdon-Avon High School dismissed early on Wednesday morning following a mysterious odor that was giving some high school employees headaches. After an investigation by Ameren, the school and surround area have been declared safe."
Quote: "Abindon-Avon High School is not a gas building, so the district believed the odor might have come from something else in the area."
Note: Sounds like it did smell like 'gas', e.g. a rotten egg odor, but they don't have gas service at the school, soooo...what was it?

Quote: "You may have smelled something odd if you were in downtown St. Louis on Wednesday. It was due to a big fire that burned for hours across the river in Madison, Illinois. Firefighters from at least 10 departments, including St. Louis City, worked to contain the fire as it swept through a recycling business in southwestern Illinois. The smell caused by the fire now has the EPA involved. The fire broke out around 2 a.m. at the Interco recycling plant, which recycles metals, computers, and electronics."
Quote: "The flames could be seen for miles. Authorities say at least four separate buildings collapsed. Residents on both sides of the river complained about the smell."
Note: I smelled something weird too, but it was faint. I'm about 8 miles from Madison though...

Hey Jonny, everyone! TGIF for sure this week, eh? The big news today is WATCH OUT FOR BANK COLLAPSE! If Deutsche Bank goes south, and it looks like that may happen in the next week, the rest of the world's central banks will follow it into oblivion. Watch for bank runs - so take some money out of the bank TODAY, and keep it around for the coming DEPRESSION that's unavoidable now (according to experts).
ReplyDeleteAbove, we see how JJFH is ALSO spreading around faster and more intensely now too (a "quickening" in Mike D.'s term). Watch for an uptick in global heat indices as the global economy takes a HUGE hit due to this virus and the aerosol masking effect comes into play. CH4 and H2S is wafting around all over the place and will most likely become more intense also. In fact, if conditions get so bad that there's no alternative, take a walk by a stream or pond and you may find salvation in a QUICK (you probably won't even feel it) death. If in India - go for a swim or a bath in some water source.
In short, as Jonny mentioned yesterday in the comments, it's looking really doomy now.

2°C crossed
http://arctic-news.blogspot.com/2020/03/2c-crossed.html
In Sam Carana's analysis, the year 1750 is used as the baseline for pre-industrial. The analysis shows that we meanwhile have also crossed the 2°C threshold (in February 2020) and that the temperature rise looks set to rapidly drive humans and eventually most if not all species on Earth into extinction.
The trend indicates that 2°C was crossed in February 2020, and looks set to keep rising and cross 3°C in 2021, more specifically in January next year, which is less than a year away. [more]

No Way to avoid the coming depression
Charles Nenner - No Way to Avoid Coming Depression
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2020/03/no-way-to-avoid-coming-depression.html [~ 28.5 min. video interview by Greg Hunter]
Does it get worse before it get’s better? Nenner says, “I think we are heading for a depression. Usually we go into a recession at a 6% GDP. Now, we have 1.5% to 2% GDP. Usually, the Fed Funds are 6%, 7% or 8%. Now they are almost zero. What are they going to do when we get a recession? You get very fast a negative GDP. You get very fast a negative interest rate and it’s a big mess. This has been going on for many, many nice years and all the Fed presidents had tricks and let it go. They did not want to have a depression in their lifetime like the 1930’s. So they kept it going and now there is no way out anymore.”
So, there is no avoiding a depression? Nenner says, “Yep, and it is going to be very bad.” [more]

Coronavirus: What happens if Trump invokes Stafford Act and declares national emergency?
https://www.yahoo.com/news/coronavirus-happens-trump-invokes-stafford-210431625.html
U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he may declare the coronavirus pandemic an emergency by invoking a law known as the Stafford Act.
The law, enacted in 1988, empowers the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to assist state and local governments during "natural catastrophes" and coordinate the nation's response.
Trump has invoked the Stafford Act many times during his presidency, approving major disaster declarations to address flooding in the Midwest and wildfires in California, among other events.
An emergency declaration under the National Emergencies Act unlocks sweeping presidential powers, like the ability to seize control of the internet or suspend laws, while a Stafford Act declaration deals only with FEMA. [more]

Zimbabwe Gives Land Back to White Farmers After Wrecking Economy
https://www.yahoo.com/news/zimbabwe-gives-land-back-white-150503602.html
Two decades after President Robert Mugabe wrecked Zimbabwe’s economy by urging black subsistence farmers to violently force white commercial farmers and their workers off their land, his successor has thrown in the towel.
Emmerson Mnangagwa’s government has proposed settling all outstanding claims against it by farmers by offering them land.
“The object of the regulations is to provide for the disposal of land to persons entitled to compensation,” Land Minister Perence Shiri said in regulations published in the Government Gazette Friday.
The seizures that began in 2000 were ratified by the government, which said they were needed to redress colonial imbalances. A vibrant agricultural industry that exported tobacco and roses and grew most of the food the nation needed collapsed. Periodic food shortages ensued, inflation became the world’s highest and the manufacturing industry was decimated. What was one of Africa’s richest countries became one of its poorest.

Get Ready For Your Lifestyle To Change Indefinitely Because Of This Coronavirus Pandemic
ReplyDeletehttp://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/get-ready-for-your-lifestyle-to-change-indefinitely-because-of-this-coronavirus-pandemic
Fear of the coronavirus is causing shutdowns on a global scale like we have never seen before. Just about every major sporting event that you can think of has been either canceled or postponed, schools and universities are keeping students away, global tourism is absolutely collapsing, churches are being shuttered, conferences and festivals are being taken off the calendar, businesses are asking workers to work from home, and even Disneyland is being closed down. Over the past several days the wave of closings and cancellations has become an avalanche, and all of our lifestyles are going to be dramatically altered for the foreseeable future.
For the first few days, a lot of people are actually going to enjoy this “free vacation”. After all, what kid doesn’t enjoy time off from school, and there are lots of Americans that relish the opportunity to work from home.
But as the weeks drag on and the economy grinds to a standstill, this “free vacation” will start evolving into a horror show.
The more this coronavirus spreads, the more restrictions we will see on human interaction throughout the western world, and that has very serious implications [more]
