Unprecedented rainfall and its climate implications

Typhoon Duksuri has unleashed heavy rainfalls in China’s inland regions. Beijing reported the highest level of downpours in over a century.

We have CGTN reporter Huang Yue for this episode to bring us more details from the hard-hit areas.

To better understand the extreme weather events this year, we also spoke with environmentalist Ma Jun.
