Thank you, Steve.

Global warming isn't to blame for the fire, human beings are.

It is humans that cause global warming.

Today’s discussion down below

My opinion would be humans and the Nature both play a role in this tragic event in Australia. From a video made by Vox, where it explains how Indian Ocean Dipole, which is kinda like El Nino in the Pacific, causes the eerie events not only in Australia but also in Africa. (Eastern Africa is actually flooding, but seems no one's talking about it, so, now you know that.)

And of course, this natural phenomenon has been further deteriorated by humans, mainly by the use of fossil fuels since the 1900s.

看到今天CNN10的特輯就回想起以前英文沒那麼好的時候為了挑戰自己聽懂CNN，每天都會看CNN10學英文，每一支影片都先不看Transcript(那時候CNN10沒有youtube頻道，只能開兩個分頁一邊聽影片聲音一邊看Transcript)，接者看Transcript查單字聽發音，最後再看一次影片，每天都花將近一小時在一支僅10分鐘的影片

回想起來真是克難，還好CNN開YT頻道也有Voicetube平台可以讓整個學習更便利，感謝大家
