Have you noticed that oil is usually pumped from the bottom of the sea at the areas where earthquakes are more or less common? Could there be a connection between emptied oil fields and pressure from down under, from the core, that would end up as earthquakes?
If this is possible, I would make oil companies responsible for the unstable core near the oil fields and let them pay for at least all the damage that is calculable from the changed volume of an emptied oil field after an earthquake. Could there be a means to fill up the emptied oil fields so that the risk of an earthquake would be minimized? Is it possible to measure the thickness of the solid surface of our planet accurately enough near oil fields to be able to respond to the changing volume of an oil field fast enough?
Another thing I believe might be related to earthquakes is the vibrating life - life as energy - as a still unstable, wave-based organism, that in an n-dimensional universe is able to move lava masses inside the core of our planet. This movement might result in an earthquake if it happened in large enough scale.
How to prevent this latter kind of earthquakes? Silence, prayer, and common good spirit will develop this living organism towards a more stable state. Over religions, the spirit stays the same. We should use this information to do our part in the development of a synchronized global consciousness that will take care of us as human beings. We should abandon negative thoughts that are only capable of doing harm and seek a common, global understanding instead. We should learn to see ourselves as cells of this global organism and make sure to act accordingly.
