Reason 1 - Many people do not want to accept that the scientists may be right, they want to stay as positive as they can.
Reason 2 - Many scientists have been wrong many times before in the past, people may not want to waste their time evacuating or worrying for nothing (boy who cried wolf).
At this point, scientists don't prevent earthquakes. But their predictions may help minimize an earthquake's damaging and destructive effects. Advance warning may allow people to make their properties more earthquake resistant and may let appropriate organizations have emergency preparedness measures in place.
Primarily scientists study hurricanes to gain knowledge that will help us predict them. Better predictions can help warn people in the path of a hurricane, thus saving lives. There is also the simple matter of natural human curiosity, the drive to know how the world works.
The 1958 earthquake in Montana killed 28 people. No one died in the 2005 earthquake.
The March 11, 2011 earthquake was originally measured at magnitude 8.9, but later upgraded to 9.0 by both USGS and Japan scientists.
no offfence or anything but what a dumb question obviously its good. if there was it would warn people about it and PEOPLE WOULD SURVIVE!!
because there is no sufficient evidence. may be due to ethic concerns.

Yes, predictions range from 100,000 to 500,000
yes but there was not an early warning system so they could not tell the people.

Not all naturalists are earth scientists and not all earth scientists are naturalists. Some people are both.Naturalists often provide data to scientists, teach, monitor populations, manage parks, create artwork and author books.Earth scientists apply the scientific method to support predictions of change, identify the location of minerals, and manage game resources by studying and analyzing collected data.
Well people can be aware of disasters that they can see TV and whatch the weather forecast or ask some scientists about when is the next EARTHQUAKE is coming =^w^= :3 =¥
Scientists cannot warn people yet with an very accurate statement. Scientists are currently studying seismic activity. The best estimate would be to study seismic gaps, foreshocks, changes in rocks, and more. It might give them a possible location and time of the future earthquake. They hope to soon find ways to warn people, but for now they just have to try their best.
You do /ignore "Name"
About 10000 people died after the earthquake.
No, they are paid to experiment on the animals. there are strict rules and regulations so that the animals are treated and looked after properly. But some scientists ignore the rules and abuse the animals
