Your earthquakes in the future are here. See more than 2500 world earthquake predictions. The plate tectonic NOT makes the earthquakes.

The earths crust is very quickly losing its gravitational balance as was shown in a documentary film CORE. Atomic explosions being experimented are destroying matter & making the Ozone layer disappear very quickly causing more global warming. Frequent volcanic eruptions are leading to new discoveries & theories on the causes & effects of destruction of matter. But the man is wilder than he was. Instead of moving towards the global peace the war of supremacy is going on destroying earth quickly.
