SAVE OUR PLANET -- Global warming blamed for extreme weather

SAVE OUR PLANET... China's top scientists note increasing extreme weather due to global warming. In a recent statement, Mr. Ren Fumin, chief instructor of the China Meteorological Administration, cited climate change as the reason for such extreme weather this year across the country, saying that the relentless rainstorms and hot temperatures were due to increased heat and its abnormal circulation over the northern hemisphere. Other scientists, such as Dr. Zong Yongqiang (NFT: 宗永強) of the University of Hong Kong, agree that the region's overall temperature rise is part of human-caused global warming.
