Is there some sort of correlation with uptick in seismic activity, I mean are we in seeing normal activity, or is there indeed a lot more going on than 'usual'?

Maybe it's just some synchronicity and I'm just more 'aware' because of all the other natural disasters, and non-natural, but it just 'feels' like something big is coming because of all the volcanoes, tsunami's, and other reports of activity.

Also, how much does climate change affect volcanoes, and earthquakes?
