We know from the relative amounts of 16O and 18O that global temperatures and global climate have changed over time. Why is it important for scientists to be able to explain how they know that climate has changed over time and that they are able to repeat experiments that support this information?

In order to take steps by humans for controlling the change in climate.

Explanation:

It is important that scientist find out the change which occurs in the climate with the passage of time by performing experiments and also repeat the experiments in order to verify their findings. Due to these experiments, scientists also find out the reasons behind of climate change which enable us to take steps in preventing the change that occurs in the environment. it is also important for scientists to be able to explain how they know that climate has changed over time in order to explain that he is not assuming or making predictions, he has to provide evidence for his statement which is only be possible through experiments.
