Climate Change, Earthquakes and Doomsday

GLOBAL WARMING: DIVINE WARNING OF DOOMSDAY Andrea Hampel of the University of Hannover’s Geological Institute, who with colleagues has been studying earthquake activity, says, “future ice loss may trigger earthquakes of intermediate to large magnitude if the crust underneath the modern ice cap contains faults prone to failure”. Scientific studies reveal that where an earthquake fault or volcanic activity is primed and ready to go, climate change may provide that extra helping hand that brings forward the timing of a quake or eruption that would eventually have happened. In keeping with these scientific predictions, earthquakes have occurred with greater frequency worldwide. The number of noticeable earthquakes has been increasing year after year since 2017 in the important oil-producing regions of the U.S., according to an analysis by an independent energy research firm. The National Earthquake Information Center now locates about 20,000 earthquakes around the globe each year or approximately 55 per day. On the 26th December 2004, an undersea earthquake in Indonesia resulted in a tsunami which caused heavy damage and loss of life in South Asian coastal cities. Another earthquake that remains fresh in recent memory is the one that devastated the Chinese
