More Fatal Earthquakes to Come, Warn Climate Change Scientists
Newsweek ^ | April 28, 2015 | BY ALEX RENTON

The untold – and terrifying – story behind the earthquake that devastated Nepal last Saturday morning begins with something that sounds quite benign. It’s the ebb and flow of rainwater in the great river deltas of India and Bangladesh, and the pressure that puts on the grinding plates that make up the surface of the planet.

Recently discovered, that causal factor is seen by a growing body of scientists as further proof that climate change can affect the underlying structure of the Earth.

Because of this understanding, a series of life-threatening “extreme geological events” – earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis – is predicted by a group of eminent geologists and geophysicists including University College London’s Bill McGuire, professor emeritus of Geophysical and Climate Hazards.

“Climate change may play a critical role in triggering certain faults in certain places where they could kill a hell of a lot of people,” says Professor McGuire. Some of his colleagues suspect the process may already have started.

Wow.
Imagine that.

I'm not a "scientist," climate change or otherwise, but I can make the identical prediction with 100% certainty.

DOH!

The only unchanging planet is a dead planet...

These proven fraudulent scam artists just don't give up, do they.

“The problem with quotes on the internet is it’s difficult to tell whether they’re accurate or not.” ~ Abraham Lincoln

Abe had quite a few good things to say that were quoted.

"You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."

"If you call a tail a leg, how many legs has a dog? Five? No, calling a tail a leg don't make it a leg."

Climate Change idiots can't fool everyone. That tale doesn't have a leg to stand on.

I wish they would make up their minds: are they worried about saving lives; or are they serious about wanting to “save the earth” by drastically reducing the population?

Or, are they jealous of anything that takes away their fun of hands-on population reduction?
