Can Sciences really control the weather?
The answer is no. Sciences does not have the ability to control the weather, but by using some technology that were invented nowadays, it also can influence it in limited and localized ways.
Things that Sciences can do
Cloud Seeding
Cloud Seeding
To encourages rain
Releasing substances like silver iodide into clouds to help water droplets form
The effectiveness are not guaranteed
Urban Heat Islands
Urban Heat Islands
Cities with concrete, asphalt, and less greenery trap heat, making them warmer than nearby rural areas.
This likely unintentional, but it shows humans can also alter the local temperature patterns.
Environmental Impact
Environmental Impact
Burning fossil fuels contributes to climate change, which affects long term weather patterns like extreme storms, heatwaves, droughts
This is indirect weather influence, in global scale
Things that Sciences can't do
Stop a hurricane
Make snow or rain on demand
Prevent droughts or heatwaves globally
Control daily weather across large regions
WATCH!
This is a simple video that may explain what if we [human] could control the weather.
