A 5.6 doesn't even wake you up in California, it's barely worth mentioning. People talk about the little earthquakes here the way everyone else talks about the rain. Probably because California doesn't have any rain, but has lots of earthquakes. Hahaha!!!

places like cali that have frequent earthquakes also have earthquake building codes. by contrast, oklahoma is mostly one big trailer park. they don't have the infrastructure to handle it, and the ok state government is amazingly incompetent so that will not change. what's more, no one really knows what will happen with fracking. will the earthquakes stay at this intensity and frequency, subside, get worse, or summon the lava men from the center of the earth? there isn't much research about the subject either, for obvious reasons.

Nefarious 2.0 posted:*sees a 300,000% increase in earthquakes since we started shattering the inside of the earth with hydraulic fluid* It is totally because of fracing but the real mystery is why anyone would give a poo poo. Oh no more 2-3.0 earthquakes what a bunch of babies. it gives these places a semblance of industry and jobs that pay more than min wage and the rest of us cheap loving gas win win.

AKA Pseudonym posted:Flimsy rear end Okie built bullshit falls over in a 5.6. Most of the civilized world doesn't even get out of bed for anything under 6.0. Stuff like this is why the only memorable song praising Oklahoma just says that it's windy, that it's "doing fine, " and that it's "OK." Remember when people kept trying to assure us that fracking wasn't dangerous? Guess where they've been doing all that fracking? The amount of earthquakes in OK has increased from 2 per year to hundreds since they began.

There's lots of research on the subject, it just doesn't agree with the loony left's anti-science agenda. These are the same people that poo poo their pants over nuclear energy, power lines, and wi-fi.

if fracking only ever causes a massive amount of tiny earthquakes then it isn't really a big deal. that's a pretty big if, though.
