Reply to comment by redratus in Scientists have shown how toxic dyes can be filtered out of wastewater using the method and material developed by the group. The procedure uses sunlight as a catalyst and doesn’t involve any pressure or heat. It can remove 80 percent of dye pollutants in wastewater. by Wagamaga
The question of whether 80% is good is a really good one. I’m not an expert on wastewater but I have worked in stormwater treatment. In general it easier to remove a higher percentage of a pollutant if the original concentration is higher. So the average percent removal often isn’t a good indicator of how effective that method of removal will be with different starting concentrations or of what the final concentration to be.

Less wild than you're probably imagining.
It's more akin to lubrication, really. The potential energy for the quake was already built up; the injected liquid just gets things moving.
It's roughly analogous to a match starting a forest fire or a yell causing an avalanche.

Cracks got worse in my apartment building. Can we send the repair bills to any of these companies?

Just stopping by to say sorry, in case I did something wrong in advance. Have a good one, eh?

It didn't really damage anything, area is mostly forest. Other than just confusion that we felt and earthquake. It never happens here so 90% people immediately knew it was fault of the oilfield somehow.

I believe the two individuals above were talking about truly broken trust. Not their friend ate part of your share of the popcorn at the movies. Like your gf/ bf cheats on you. Would you ever trust them again? Probably not.

Hell in DFW Texas area we had a fracking boom for natural gas about 10 years ago and used to get mini quakes all the way to Oklahoma… it was speculated as the cause but never proven but I can tell you since they stopped drilling new ones it’s stopped

Reply to A study shows that patients with the most serious health issues who thought that continuing the treatment would result in destitution only had an estimated 24% chance of continuing treatment, while those thinking paying fees would not negatively affect their financial situations had a 95% likelihood by nmhhg8
I actually put my money and time into getting treatment and they served fake reports with it and didn't treat till I was broke leaving hundreds of thousands in care needed.

That's fine because you can practice or learn how to have a healthy/ier relationship with yourself in the mean time! If your internal monologue is a big ole meany, being aware of it can help shift that relationship.

Yes Sir,, Pump Down Peanut Butter, and coat all those jagged edged fractures that held for a thousands of years, will all of a sudden slip under billions of tons of constant pressure.
Good luck there,, pretty sure many more are coming. I wouldn't be surprised if 100 mini quakes occurs with in a couple years.
Cheers
