OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

No...the plates are around 60 miles thick! There are 7 or 8 major plates (think continent size — there's one plate that holds all of North America, for example) and a bunch of smaller ones. They do move, very slowly on our timescale, a few inches per year. Weather and climate change do not affect them.
