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.

2019-05-05 - Biosphere collapsing, dead zones spreading through the oceans, life disappearing, even insects in remote tropical forests dying off:

Quote: "In parts of the ocean, little life remains but green slime. Some remote tropical forests are nearly silent as insects have vanished, and grasslands are increasingly becoming deserts. Human activity has resulted in the severe alteration of more than 75 percent of Earth’s land areas, the Global Assessment found. And 66 percent of the oceans, which cover most of our blue planet, have suffered significant human impacts. This includes more than 400 dead zones—where scant life can survive—that collectively would cover the state of Oregon or Wyoming."
Note: Humanity will be disappearing before too long too...

http://www.ocala.com/news/20190505/firefighters-find-body-in-homes-garage
Quote: "There wasn’t a blaze when firefighters arrived at an Ocala home Sunday morning but the charred remains of a person was discovered inside, according to the department. Ocala Fire Rescue saw light smoke but no flames around 3:30 a.m. in the garage where the body was found in the 2400 block of southeast 7th Street. There was no heat or fire to extinguish so the scene was turned over to the Ocala Police Department for a death investigation."
Note: Smoke was still present so this person must have burned to death not that long before the firefighters arrived. An SUV just burst into flame at 12:55 AM while parked in a garage at a home in Ocala the day prior too, mentioned in the 2019-05-04 update. As a wise man called The Merovingian once said, "Where some see coincidence, I see consequence."

Note: And the day before, a small plane and four helicopters crashed in separate incidents, killing a total of 12 people and injuring 1 person, and a passenger had a 'medical emergency' on a passenger plane, with the plane diverting to coastal Shannon (Ireland), all six events mentioned in the 2019-05-04 update. And the day before that, a passenger plane made an emergency landing after people were sickened by an unknown odor, in coastal Los Angeles (California), and another passenger plane ran off the runway and plunged into the St. John River in coastal Jacksonville (Florida), both events mentioned in the 2019-05-03 update. Flying certainly seems to be becoming something of an iffy proposition. This is the 60th aircraft to smoke/burn/explode in 2019...
