The article presents an overview of confirmations of the law of earthquake productivity based on global, regional and local data for various energy scales and types of seismogenesis. It is indicated that with an increase in the watering of the environment, the productivity of earthquakes increases, which is consistent with the results of modeling seismicity using a generalized cell model. In addition, information is provided on the implementation of this law for acoustic emission events arising during the destruction of rocks in laboratory experiments.
