Physicist and author of "Physics of the Future" Michio Kaku warned world citizens this morning on Good Morning America about the pending threat of enormous earthquakes.
"In our life time, we could very well see one of these cities destroyed," Kaku said. "Los Angeles, San Francisco, Mexico City, Tehran, Tokyo."
Kaku pointed to changes in the physical structures of human civilization, and how the new composure poses many risks. "We are creating mega cities where there used to be fishing villages," he said.
About the many disasters this year, he said: "Well, look at the Chilean earthquake. You realize it was so big it actually rocked the planet earth. The axis of the earth shifted 3 inches as a result of that 8.8 earthquake. The day is no longer 24 hours, it's been shortened by one micro-second, That's how big that earthquake was."

Kaku is considered one of the more credible scientists..
His words are listened to by many..
It seems even mainstream is starting to talk about what is going on..
The next few years may be interesting..
BTW, do you have a link.?
s&f
So he is a credible source and not a guy trying to sell up something like the global warming conspiracy
I really don't even worry about myself or humans.. I worry most about my 2 cats as funny as that is. They don't know what is going on and I worry aobut being able to protect them in a natural or illuminati made disaster. Does anyone know of any thread talking about dealing with pets when the SHTF?

This is something I have been worried about of late. I live in San Diego.. been here for about 30 years.. moved here when I was 10 years old. We have never had large earthquakes here at all. Over the last 6 months, after the Chilean earthquakes we have had several 6.0 quakes. They were so violent I was worried about this older 2 story apartment complex coming down. I could easily see a larger one doing some horrific damage. The sad thing is though the real issue is our shoddy construction. If you are lucky enough not to live in these shoddy structures and to not have to rely on civilization you would be fine.

He's the polar opposite of Al Gore..
I doubt anyone will question his credibility.
Maybe his theories though..
The entire planet was affected... cracked .. and weakened ... this earthquake have open up the door for more major ones that will shake the ground for longer and with a force of a hundred nukes probably more
it shifted the earth axis ... that never happened in the past .. why now ??
We never know where an earthquake will hit ...this is whats scary for everyone
Do we agree that earthquakes are to most dangerous natural disaster on earth ... it can level and destroy a country in a few second..

The thing is.. I treat my cats like kids. They are also getting old.. and they both have health issues. I think they would both lose their mind if I wasn't around to take care of them they are so emotionally dependent.
The girl cat never leaves my side when I am home. In a disatser it would be like hell for them. Especially if something happened to me and I wasn't around. I feel bad about making them indoor pets and being so dependent.. but in the environment I live they wouldn't last long as outdoor cats.

I don't know about that guy.. He said the missile off of California's coast was not a missile.

Is there any evidence to suggest that the planet has been moved off its axis? We know more about earthquakes these days due to the advancements of the internet and television. It could have happened in the past (if it's true)
The magnitude 8.8 earthquake that jolted Chile on Saturday was felt as far away as São Paulo. But NASA scientists are proposing that its repercussions are truly global in a geophysical sense: it likely shifted Earth's axis by about eight centimeters.
