The Earth 's rotation rate will /always/ increase and never decrease due to earthquakes * , as it 's energetically favorable for all mass to be closer to the center of gravity.Earthquakes occur because tension is released and thus the system transitions into an energetically favorable state , and that 's for all matter to be a little bit closer in.In other words : the Earth ( very , very slowly ) collapses due to earthquakes and will spin up * ( due to the conservation of angular momentum , and the change of the Earth 's moment of inertia due to the collapse ) .

In that sense , the parent may still be correct ( just not because of other earthquakes ) .

Moreover it may play a crucial role in climate change.
Our scientist must follow this radical change in climate.
