    Geez The orbit of the moon & gravitational pull esp. when Moons full. & tectonic plates, After time they give way. Not the tide & drought. For more info. go to https://www.facebook.com/pages/SYZYGY-an-Earthquake-Newsletter/1409768505911326?ref=profile

    False equivalency. Absolutely no one who believes in climate change/global warming believes earthquakes are caused by it. It’s pretty damn stupid to suggest they do.

    What’s particularly revealing about this cartoon is the admission that climate change denial does not come from any kind of scientific evidence. It started purely as Al Gore hatred. It has since evolved to “hatred of everything liberals think is true.” No rational person who can deny the science, it’s easy to measure, and all data points in the same direction. In order to deny the science, the hatred has to be more important to you than truth. In 2009, only 6% of scientists identified themselves as Republican in a Pew poll. That number cannot have improved in the years since.

    Yes, I still deny “Global Warming”… It is a Socialist tool being used to help destroy this country.

    Global warming causes earthquakes? Is there anything it can’t do?

    I would think that as ground water is removed there would be local subsidence of surface, hardly felt or seen as other than sinkholes and larger cave collapses. The tectonic plates are huge and nothing short of extraterrestrial strikes would (possibly) budge them. They are driven mainly by the Earth’s internal forces..The present land area of the Earth has shifted around into several large land masses, and back apart, and will continue to do so beyond our ability to start or stop it. Australia, for instance, is moving a good hand-span northward each year..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercontinent.There was talk of lubricating the San Andreas fault with seawater to let it slip gradually instead all at once. And of course in the 1976 movie, Superman also got involved. (Where is he when we need him? Maybe in a future movie he will suck out our excess CO2 and spew it into the Sun.) From what I read, the effects of climate change, in terms of temperature and drought, would not be a cause of earthquakes..It is said that the basins of the Great Lakes were made from the weight of the glaciers and are gradually rising so that the water will eventually drain off in thousands of years. The Lakes are not presently comprised mainly of water left from the glaciers, by the way, but area drainage into those depressions. The inner part of Greenland, it is said, will also rise as its glacier melts. Those regions, not on major fault lines, will rise but slowly and not necessarily cause earthquakes. .http://techalive.mtu.edu/meec/module08/GreatLakesPastandPresent.htm

    Big Al is having trouble getting his money from selling that network to the Muslims. Ironically, Big Al’s first comment on hearing the bad news was “That’s cold!” There is no truth to the rumor that Big Al refuses to cool hot drinks.

    Beau: oil removal caused Long Beach, Ca to drop over 20 feet over the years and that DID cause earthquakes. Other practices have proven to cause earthquakes, including long ago underground coal mine fires. Questions remain on just how much trouble “fracking” is causing in this realm, but it’s logical geologically.

    1) Name calling only makes your argument look weaker.2) Post a link to video of Al Gore claiming earthquakes are caused by global warming/climate change.
