Originally posted by Kev science can only observe the past and present, it cant predict the future. glaciers come and go all the time.
Being able to predict what is going to happen is pretty important. For instance in things like engineering.
I'm pretty sure that making predictions is pretty important in science. That's how theories and hypothesises get tested. -

Important? yes. possible? no. not unless you can invent a time travel machine.
you cant predict the climate, get over it. at best you can make an educated guess based on historical trends and even these have a horrible track record. -

Yes, you can predict things related to climate.
I mean what the fuck?
For instance weather forecasts are a thing (I know weather and climate aren't the same thing). -

Weather forecasts arent accurate past one day and even then they get shit wrong. now imagine trying to predict next year or next decade.
