Insiders call it \"underground climate change.\' And it\'s going to make a shambles of just about every major city in the world.

Foundations have been shifting since humans started building intentionally impressive buildings.
Academics have been producing alarmist \"studies\" about it since we\'ve had newspapers, but builders have been fixing the building for a lot longer.

The changes pointed out in the study are not the usual soil settlement type, these are cyclic and larger.

That\'s what alarmist papers always claim.
With soil settlement the foundation sinks, the climate type raises and lowers the structure. Unless the building is perfectly balanced and the degree of soil expansion and contraction exactly match throughout the footprint, the structure starts to become uneven. It doesn\'t take much before you have things like water mains breaks, doors and windows binding, masonry and other rigid materials cracking and splitting causing even more serious troubles. Foundations are not cheap to fix. The Millennium Tower fix was projected to be over $200M a few years back, looks like it will run even more. You add up these kinds of problems city-wide and you get a BIG problem.
But not a new one.

don\'t spread fake
buildings in Chicago sink due to exposure to infrasounds, generated by traffic and underground rock activity

\"Its only going to get worse!\" is usually how they start (or finish) the
paper - and they need more funding to research it further...

All sorts of alarmists have been using this sort of rhetoric since the
dawn of time.
And when some time has passed (with no disasters) they note that new,
improved, research shows that the goal posts have moved another ten
years into the future.
