Most of these are on fault lines, where the added weight could trigger an earthquake. Not good for Jerusalem and Los Angeles.

- pipo234 3y agoI understand very little about earthquakes, tectonics, etc. Indeed, straining fault lines is probably asking for trouble. But conversely, would not drilling pipes, building dams, flooding large regions somehow improve (long term) safety? Ie. reduce severity / frequency / risk of earthquakes? Do we know or have theories?
