[All] 5 man made ways to create earthquakes

[Louisette Lanteigne]

Hi folks

Here is an article that outlines 5 different human activities that can literally CAUSE earthquakes. Right now Ontario is complacent that we face no such risks here but currently we may not even be assessing the risk of our activities to have regard for data like this. We need to facilitate more study of these issues or at lease include them in the risk assessments of proposals. 

Over depletion of aquifers, carbon sequestering, aggregate activities all relate to this.
