Global warming, global cooling, climate change??? A hoax?? A Christian perspective.

Heat levels rising, desertification, does it mean global warming is real?
is global warming really a hoax?

It is true over a few past centuries there has been an increase trend in temperature levels suggesting a heat apocalypse thus the global warming concept.
But, there some years within the same period where there was a trend in cooling temperature suggesting a new ice age thus, the global cooling concept.
This uncertainties however, caused scientists to come up with a new term climate change.
 But isn’t climate really changing? Sure it is
Will the earth be destroyed by climate change then? From a Christian perspective, the earth must ultimately come to an end at some point but the end will be brought by God Himself not Climate change, nor ice age, nor disease epidemic, nor world war III or Z, nor some scary Nuclear War.
Then this climate thing is a hoax. Right? Ah!! Yes and no.
The concept has been adopted by different people with different motives and insights (Some actually believe and know it a thing based on science, others are in it for financial gains, and others are in it for religious beliefs). Climate change is real and its effects could actually be very catastrophic but, it will definitely not utterly bring the world to an end.
What is a Christian’s take on climate change?
FACT. Science and research have with no doubt proven that nature and human action bring upon some sort of destruction to the earth (including the climate) and, the Bible agrees as seen in a bit;
Both the Bible and science reveal that man is by nature destructive (Job 5:7) and his destructive nature needs to be controlled and corrected.
The possibility of man destroying the earth; The nations raged, but your wrath has come, and the time for judging the dead, for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints and all who fear your name, both small and great, and for destroying those who destroy the earth.” (Rev...)
Luke 11:17; As Christians, we should be concerned about our effect on our environment. God appointed man to be the steward of this world (Genesis 1:28), not the destroyer of it.
Bottom line
Although man will not ultimately end the existence of the earth, he could and is still destroying it with his choices and action.
Climate change may or may not be real, and may or may not be human-caused, but is excessive carbon emission dangerous? Sure it is, are we depleting natural resources, sure we are.
As a true Christian therefore, remember the golden rule, to do unto others what you would want them do to you, and that he (man) is a steward on earth as the caretaker thus, he ought to care for it not destroy.
Reckless and greedy actions of man will not end life on earth but will destroy it and make it a living hell.
Use eco-friendly means of living and money generation. You can adopt use of renewable energy be a care taker of God’s creation not a destroyer.
