Global Warming and Global Seismic Activity

Just as we do not try to predict habitability of a house by observing its exterior paint, we should avoid trying to predict habitability of planet Earth by restricting ourselves to observing climate. The main danger for Earth and its inhabitants, although directly caused by properties of the atmosphere, is not in the atmosphere itself: it comes from the heat-generating planetary interior that is denied cooling. In the last 40 years, when the average climate temperature changed a small fraction of 1 degree C, the annual earthquake energy has increased several-fold. Addressing the problem of Global Warming is far more urgent and leads to far greater dangers for habitability of Earth than it is implied by climate studies. Dangers include sudden changes to Earth axis of rotation with simultaneous tsunamis on all oceans... See the article that outlines a scientific basis for this lecture
