Fracking Earthquakes are exactly like they sound – ground movement caused as a result of fracking activity.
At HazardHub, we don’t like to say that fracking causes earthquakes – we just like to point out that there’s a lot of new earthquake activity near areas that have been subjected to fracking.
So far, Fracking Earthquakes tend to be much milder than earthquakes caused by the natural movement of the earth’s tectonic plates. However, they can still be scary for anyone who may not be aware of earthquakes!
