The Rebuke of Adam and Eve, by Charles Joseph Natoire, 1740. The Met, New York.
The desire of atheists to believe in the fraudulent Climate Crisis is nothing more than the sublimation of the Biblical Original Sin of the banishment of Adam & Eve from the Garden of Eden turned to pseudoscientific belief system: it is the Bible rehashed by "science".
Take away the Bible and it's recreated elsewhere by scientism. It is instead an unconscious religious belief and has nothing to do with real science. That's why Climate Crisis believers do not listen to reason. It is a substitute for religion in those who have severed their links to it. A bad imitation of the Bible.
The Tree of Knowledge the Bible warned us about not eating from is precisely the lack of faith that leads atheists to believe in a "climate crisis".
The belief in Jesus Christ is the path back to faith and abandonment of false beliefs in false Gods like the wrathful God of catastrophist Scientism.
This is a cultural explanation. When Christianity was still the main key of interpretation of the world there was no belief in a "climate crisis". This is separate to a belief in natural climate change which is instead reasonable. The apocalyptic dimension is Biblical without the Bible.
Whether God exists or not humans can't live without Him. Therefore they create Gods out of everything else, including climate, or scientific "truth" (there is none there is only a scientific method of approximations to it).
