Maybe because He doesn't find anything to be alarmed about.

Contrary to what a worryingly large proportion of His churches believe, God isn’t a climate charge alarmist. If you’re in any doubt, I’d recommend you read this superbly erudite open letter to Pope Francis which has been put together by the Cornwall Alliance laying out the theological arguments against global warming catastrophism – and, more pertinently, lamenting the massive damage it’s doing to the well being of the people both the Old and New Testaments enjoin us to protect: the world’s poor.
It has been released to coincide with the Vatican’s conference this week on climate change which, unfortunately for anyone who believes in the scientific method or sound economic and social policy has been hijacked by the alarmist camp.
I think it somewhat unlikely the Pope Francis will ever get round to reading this letter. But I wish he would.
Here are some samples
The Imago Dei and Man’s Dominion
Severe poverty, widespread hunger, rampant disease, and short life spans were the ordinary condition of humankind until the last two-and-a-half centuries. These tragedies are normal when—as much of the environmental movement prefers—human beings, bearing the imago Dei, live, and are treated, as if they were mere animals, which need to submit to nature rather than exercising the dominium God gave them in the beginning (Genesis 1:28).

Job 38-42 pretty much settles things for Bible believers!
Didn’t read article, but God promises in scripture that we will always have seasons as long as the earth exists. And He is in control of climate.
That said, man was given dominion over the earth and we should take care of it. That doesn’t mean a miniscule increase in the percent of Carbon Dioxide in the air is a concern. Especially since plants use it as food and serve as a counter balance.
Different route, same conclusion.
But the consideration for the poor is a powerful one... and it is one that supposedly liberals have been trumpeting the high ground about.
But when push comes to shove, they want to put pristine nature uber alles. Turns out the poor were only pawns for an agenda that is broadly focused on upsetting whatever traditional applecart is available.
Maybe because He doesn't find anything to be alarmed about.
Hard for Him to be alarmed when He’s callin’ the shots.
The seasons are due to the 23-degree tilt of the Earth's axis. The tilt, scientists believe, came about when a Mars-sized object struck the Earth in the early days of the solar system. The Moon was 'born' in the process. Gravitational effects of the Moon are responsible for maintaining the tilt today. However, according to the same scientists, the Moon is currently moving away from the Earth (at the rate of about 2 inches per year). Eventually the Moon will be too far away to maintain the current tilt and the Earth will begin to wobble uncontrollably. Poles may become tropical, tropics may freeze for periods at a time.
My guess is that the earth will cease to exist before the Earth starts wobbling very much.
