What a load of crap. Poking 8" holes in the ground is going to cause a geological plate shift?

Don't these assholes ever look at history. This is a shot of Beaumont, TX in 1903.

If drilling caused earthquakes, TX would have slid into the ocean 100 years ago; and Oklahoma and Louisiana would be giant sink holes.

.

California is earthquake-prone and we don't even drill there any more.

I just love how the only vehicle in the picture is pulled by horses. Great early look at what became.

Arkansas would be too! And we have an ‘evil’ oil refinery and Murphy Oil in our town. Imagine the HORROR! /s

I want an oil well drilled in MY BACKYARD...bring it on! I’ll even decorate it at Christmas.
