They can't at the moment, at least not to the extent they would like. Seismologists want, more than anything, to be able to confidently announce: "There will be an earthquake of between 6.1 and 6.3 Richter occurring in Pleasant Valley within the next 48 hours." That's the ideal. Unfortunately, the technology is a long way from there yet. To paraphrase into the vernacular, the very best earthquake warning system we have at present would be to hear an annoucement that said: "There is somewhere between a pretty good chance and a really good chance there will be an earthquake of undetermined strength in the Pleasant Valley Area anywhere between today and nine months from now".
Seismologists measure and record earthquakes to understand their characteristics, including magnitude, depth, and location. This data helps in assessing earthquake hazards, studying the Earth's interior structure, and improving our understanding of plate tectonics and seismic activity. It also allows for the development of early warning systems to protect lives and infrastructure in earthquake-prone areas.
earthquakes are more dangerous because if there's a tornado you can go to your basement or go in the bathtub with a matres over you to protect yourself. if there's a earthquake you cant really protect yourself because of the shaking you cant really walk to a safer spot.
So they can protect themselves from chemicals in the lab.
There are many reasons to protect yourself: from other animals who might want to kill and eat you, from the elements, from natural dangers like rockslides or earthquakes, or even from accidents.
Keep an emergency kit ready. Stay under a table or doorframe when the earthquake happens.

NOTHING
they do nothing
predict, cannot be doneprevent, impossibleprotect against, build only earthquake resistant structures, have an emergency survival kit, purchase an earthquake insurance policy (but this will usually be very expensive), in the event of an earthquake stay off the phone completely (i.e. leave the still functioning circuits for emergency service use only)
C. To protect them during earthquakes
Get under a table or doorframe and cover your head.
check if anything is shaking.
mostly go to high elevation or buildings
Poseidon was responsible for all water; fresh & salt. he was also responsible for earthquakes. I'm doing research on him

They could tell people what could happen if they keep polluting
