bill weir, more than two dozen scientists blaming humans for last month's heat exchange.i think it's hugely important, ana. scientists do not want to be considered alarmists. they're very conservative how they attribute specific events in meteorology and linking them directly. but as the evidence rolls in, it becomes undeniable. these numbers are so far off the charts in a part of the world that is so unused to this kind of weather activity that they have to say this is a once-in afonce once-in-a-thousand year event, well over a century this. is exactly what the worst predictions were even five, ten years ago this would have been alarmist to see what was happening. here we are. >> it seems like it's happening sooner than any of us anticipated. we know in california, they reported its driest rainfall record and that's on top of an existing drouchlt where could this be headed? >> nowhere good unfortunately. if you think about the food pressure of all the volcanos the colorado river basin keeps 40 million, 50 million people alive. they all share the water. what you're going
