00:00 You think this summer's hot?
00:02 Well, one expert says we're just getting started.
00:05 So the intense heat that we see in these heat waves
00:08 and the intense rainfall that we see
00:11 in some of these strong rainstorms,
00:13 these are things that we can't get away from now
00:15 and they are going to get worse.
00:17 Climate scientist Hannah Cloak tells Reuters
00:19 the planet is only getting hotter
00:21 after the hottest August on record globally.
00:24 Cloak also says storms will get stronger
00:27 and rainfall more intense.
00:29 We can still do something about it though.
00:32 We can make choices about how we create energy,
00:36 whether we're burning fossil fuels or not,
00:37 whether we're pumping those greenhouse gases in
00:39 or not preferably, because that, if we stop doing that,
00:43 the worst situation won't happen.
