Roger Bilham, a geophysicist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, informed that, in this year, the planet would face more powerful earthquakes and the magnitude level will be 7.0 or more. It can even reach 9.0. He stated that the number of earthquakes could reach up to 20 in 2018.
The published report says, when the planet will enter in to slow rotation period, that will decrease the centrifugal force and tighten the planet’s equator. After that, the tectonic plates will crush with each other. The force that will erupt from this event will start super earthquakes on Earth.
The earthquakes of a magnitude of 7.0 or higher will increase by 25-30%, and the earthquakes will strike the planet with a magnitude level of 9.0 and more. The planet earth already has been faced earthquakes with 7.0 magnitude, and it had done severe destruction. Now, it can assume that if several earthquakes with 9.0 magnitude strike the planet then what will be the consciousness. It can spread up to 250 km from its center point.
Talking about the areas which may affect by this, it has predicted that the western USA, southern Europe, the Middle East, South America will be affected more by this.

It hasn‘t been examined or tested in the lab or confirmed by any further studies. Many scientists have also informed that they‘re not convinced by Bendick‘s and Bilham‘s research yet. Bilham presented the research report at the October meeting of the Geological Society of America, and after that, it has fetched a lot of attention.
Several scientists have noted that earthquake clusters and fluctuations of Earth‘s rotation might happen at the same time, but it is not proving that they are linked to each other.

I’ll make sure to tie myself to my gas-guzzler - I’ll be safe!
No doubt, there is a link to global warming.
Caused by Global Warming?
Which years do not have earthquakes?
Valueless “prediction”. But the grants just keep flowing.
Indeed Alaska 1964?
No, just your height.
Studies show and experts say....
Give us money and we’ll stop it
Read about this a month ago.
There is a cycle in the rotation of the planet and we are currently slowing...a tiny bit....and will then accelerate again after 5 years.
There WILL be an up tick of large quakes....just like always.
Feel free to panic.
What is this crap?
Exactly.
BTW, doesn't Yulin host an annual Dog Eating Festival around the Summer Solstice?
Global warming causes global cooling causes supermoons causes earthquakes.
If you would just drive 55 miles an hour like Jimmy Carter said, we’d have fewer earthquakes.
(Can I get a job with a British University now?)
Like they do every year.
Ya know, that Indian Ocean earthquake and resulting tsunami slowed the Earth’s rotation down by around 2.5 microseconds...per day...
Our only hope is electric cars
I'd be happy with public vilification. After all, we hear from them and others that science and nature are exact and precise and there is absolutely no doubt that global warming is happening and no doubt that it is all caused by humans.
Yes, there is a possible, and unproven, mechanism explaining how global warming can cause earthquakes.
Global warming causes increased evaporation, thus increased snowfall. If there is a net movement of ice towards or away from the equator, the moment of inertia changes. Thus the speed of the outer solid shell (mantle) of the Earth changes. This increases/decreases shear in the liquid zone between the solid core and solid mantle. This changes the forces underneath the continents, thus increasing/decreasing earthquakes.
There is no evidence that this is happening to a degree that would actually change things. No one knows right now. I tend to doubt that it is happening based on what I have read.
I wonder how ‘this fake news’ will be blamed on President Trump when the first earthquake hit. Will it be Chuckie or Nancy who will condemn PDJT first? I know he’ll be blamed.
His prediction might be the reason so many from Kalifornika are migrating to other states to their east and north,as their state eventually falls into the ocean (some else’s prediction, not mine)......
Note to the few conservatives who remain there, get out while you still have time.
