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.

2020-01-08 - In Australia's burning forests, signs that we've passed a global warming tipping point:
http://insideclimatenews.org/news/08012020/australia-wildfires-forest-tipping-points-climate-change-impact-wildlife-survival
Quote: "The surge of large, destructive forest fires from the Arctic to the tropics just in the last few years has shocked even researchers who focus on forests and fires and who have warned of such tipping points for years. The projections were seen as remote, 'something that would happen much farther in the future,' said University of Arizona climate scientist David Breashers."
2020-01-08 - 2019 Was the second-hottest year ever recorded, second only to the El-Nino-enhanced year of 2016:

http://mashable.com/article/2019-second-warmest-year-on-record/
Quote:"Data released by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) showed that worldwide temperatures last year were second only to 2016, in which temperatures were boosted by an exceptionally strong El Nino weather event. Average temperature in 2019 was only a few hundredths of a degree below the 2016 level."

2020-01-08 - Jellyfish population exploding all around Australia:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7866979/Jellyfish-explosion-numbers-stinging-creatures-surge-Australias-coastline.html
Quote: "Jellyfish numbers have exploded all around Australia's coastline and climate change is to blame, according to experts."
Note: Jellyfish reproduce better/faster in warmer waters, so as the oceans heat up, jellyfish will do just fine even as most other life dies off. Jellyfish are an ancient lifeform. They survived the Great Dying 252 million years ago and the current extinction event is a repeat of the Great Dying, so they'll survive this extinction event too. They'll be here long after we're gone...
