It is apparent that the effort of us mere mortals to combat climate change is like fighting a forest fire with a squirt gun and with about the same odds of success. The Bible tells us that our world has an expiration date and it has a much better record for accuracy in predicting future events than the scientists do.
It describes a day “in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat and the earth and its works will be burned up” (2 Peter 3:10-13). As with climate change we can’t prevent it, but we can prepare for it. We would be wise to pay more attention to preparation rather than continue to waste time and resources shoveling sand with a pitchfork.
