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.

2017-10-18 - Giant methane craters appear for third consecutive year in Siberia (Russia):
http://www.pravdareport.com/news/science/earth/18-10-2017/138965-siberia_craters-0/
http://www.pravda.ru/news/interesting_news/17-10-2017/1351067-yamal-0/#
Quote: "According to Russian geologists, the giant sinkholes were formed as a result of emissions of methane from the melting permafrost."
Quote: "Giant sinkholes in the ground formed as a result of emission of gas in the Yamal-Nenetsk autonomous region have grown in size in three years."
Note: I said when these first appeared in 2014 that this is the kind of event where if you see it happen once, it's highly likely it's going to happen again and again, and it is. It had actually already started before 2014, on the sea floor in the Arctic, with hundreds or even thousands of kilometer-wide methane seeps, but it took a little while before the problem spread to land. Now the only question is where ELSE the ground will begin exploding on land. I'd bet on Canada and/or Alaska, since both are already experiencing rapidly escalating permafrost melt...

2017-10-18 - Wildfires in Portugal have killed 41 people and injured 71 people:
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/index.php?pageid=event_update&edis_id=WF-20171016-60222-PRT
Quote: "At least 41 people have died in Portugal, where firefighters are slowly gaining control over 15 major wildfires. The fires, which have ripped through the centre and north of the country, have been brought under control with the help of overnight rain and lighter winds. Portugal has begun three days of mourning for the victims as 71 people recover from injuries, 16 of them in a serious condition. There is one person still missing, officials have said. Jose Carlos Alexandrino, mayor of Oliveira do Hospital near Coimbra, told broadcaster RTP: 'Most of the victims were killed in their cars, but we also found them inside their houses. The whole city looked like a ball of fire, surrounded by flames on all sides.'"
