She knows almost as much about "climate change" as this "expert":
Godd luck to her though in her other endeavors.

The questions were coming fast and frantic: How strong was the earthquake? Was it on the San Andreas? Is the Big One coming?
A massive temblor had struck near Joshua Tree shortly before 10 p.m., causing buildings to sway all the way to Las Vegas. As the public braced for more shaking, the media flocked to Caltech that night in 1992.
One woman seemed to have all the answers. It was a magnitude 6.1, explained U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Lucy Jones, and the odds of a larger quake in the next three days stood at 15%.
She shifted her weight and turned to the next TV camera. Cradled in her arms was her sleeping toddler.
In her 33 years with the USGS, Jones has become a universal mother for rattled Southern Californians. After each quake, she turns fear of the unknown into something understandable.
"When I give it a name, I give it a number, I give it a fault, it puts it back into a box and makes it less frightening," Jones said. "You feel better if somebody shows they understand what's going on."

>>California’s “earthquake lady” is retiring from USGS.<<
The Vin Sculley of Earthquakes. If you wanted the straight scoop after the earth moved of its own accord, she was the voice of authority and facts.
Her next gig not so much
Notice how they slipped "climate change" in there in the middle where you might miss it?
“science-based policies”
Yes, watch out for that tricky phrase.
I enjoyed the article reading about her career and her time at USGS.
She’s a puppet now.
Sell out to the establishment.
Ping
Sad to see her abandon science for “science policy.”
I hope they will able to find someone to tell all of us (that just went through an earthquake)...that we just had an earthquake. (snark)

Godd luck to her though in her other endeavors.
“will try to force a conversation”
I don’t like the sound of this.
She must have gotten a big grant for a climate change study.
I didn’t know about her falling for that climate change nonsense.
I haven’t felt this bad since Pete Rose... actually I feel worse since his betting had nothing to do with his play.
