maybe just coincidence...

About 1/3 of the world's megacities [cities with a population of 2 million or more] are located near fault lines. These areas are subject to repeat seismic activities and damages from earthquakes that have occured and will continue to occur. But, what if building MEGA can cause earthquakes? However, facts show that population [and thus megastructures or supercities] does not necessarily cause earthquakes to occur. People simply like to live along the coast and the coastline many times falls on or near a fault line. Referring to the supercontinent, think about where the current coastlines were before the continental drift. When the earth's crust began to break apart and shift, new coastlines were formed along the fault lines [the edges of the tectonic plates]. These areas of risk are now heavily populated and thus receive the most destructive impacts from earthquakes.

So it seems that fault lines have created areas prone to building and population explosion [ideal or asthetic living conditions] which are subject to destruction and may even cause earthquakes to be more frequent. How ironic!

These seismic cities, the megacities located near fault lines, which already exist, can be redesigned and new seismic cities can be built. I am proposing that these new seismic cities be built in areas of intersection [of time and direction of plate movement] created through my mappings. They have potential to be submerged cities where those intersections occur in the ocean.

But can we build a resistance to a natural disaster? Could a new solution stop the cycle of building and destruction and in a sense stop earthquakes from causing damage?
