I don't think knowledgeable people will blame an earthquake on global warming. On the other hand, I think there is some confusion here. The article in the OP's talks about earthquakes inland which won't cause tsunamis. However, this is all linked to the Cascadia subduction zone. A big earthquake there will likely send a tsunami this way plus affect several ports that serve Hawaii (as well as ports in Hawaii). It is definitely a scenario that would cause us many problems, not just from the waves but the lack of food supplies reaching us afterward.
