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.

2020-12-16 - Getting US to zero carbon will take a $2.5 trillion investment by 2030:
http://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/getting-u-zero-carbon-2-200000487.html
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-12-15/getting-the-u-s-to-zero-carbon-would-cost-2-5-trillion-by-2030
Note: Even if humanity gets to net zero carbon, the Earth itself is going up in flames, which will keep the carbon trajectory heading upward...
2020-12-16 - Towering pyrocumulonimbus clouds can spew as much aerosol as volcanic eruptions:

http://www.newsbreak.com/news/2126322934874/towering-fire-fueled-thunderclouds-can-spew-as-many-aerosols-as-volcanic-eruptions
http://desdemonadespair.net/2020/12/towering-pyrocumulonimbus-clouds-can-spew-as-much-aerosol-as-volcanic-eruptions-the-australian-2019-2020-outbreak-exceeded-previously-unprecedented-events-on-almost-every-level.html
Note: We're seeing more of these giant wildfire-generated clouds as the number and size of wildfires consuming the surface of the Earth continue increasing. Last year the wildfires in Australia spewed more carbon into the atmosphere in 6 months than all of humanity's carbon sources in Australia did in the whole year. Ergo, humanity getting to net zero carbon - if that's even possible - doesn't really solve the problem when the entire PLANET is going up in flames and increasing its OWN carbon emissions faster than we are decreasing ours. This will culminate, at least for us, with the human race going extinct, at which point everybody will be pushing daisies. Can't get much greener than that!
