@cnn: Although scientists are still working to determine exactly what caused the floods that tore through the Nepal-China border, climate has become a key contributing factor. CNN’s Bill Weir explains how rising temperatures may lead to the disaster.

This didn’t age well. It was a landslide.

Craig Bernas :

The earth has been doing this this for millions of years…. It’s tragic because people lost their lives but it’s nothing new to the planet

DJoe :

Correct. The climate goes through warming and cooling changes every 100,000 years. Minnesota used to be full of glaciers and they all melted. Antarctica used to be a tropical climate. The climate has been changing since the beginning of time!

Satya Dev :

glaciers calve all the time, you shouldn't be building houses on the flood path

Kyle :

😂 always blame it on climate change

Doggy funn :

Pakistan alone is home to 50% of the world’s glaciers. Due to climate change and the rapid melting of glaciers, Pakistan could face a major environmental disaster in the future.

Ai :

It was india behind the flood in Nepal

coach0213 :

So what does the billions of dollars that go to pairs do for this?

TexFlix :

Climate is cyclical. I think of all the changes that happened prior to mankind being involved.

Mr.MB :

Climate injustice; We are paying the ultimate price for a global crisis we did not create !! This is the concern to all the industrial countries ?

elon752 :

laws of physics, how does carbon dioxide cause a landslide?
