If you're reading or listening to Bible using the Daily Audio Bible's reading schedule, you're starting the book of Joel today.

Know that by then (500's BC) the Greek Dark Age cooling period had been going on for about 5 centuries and the people would have loved to be in another warm period like the Minoan Warm Period before them (1600-1100 BC, basically the Era of Judges) or after them (Roman Warm Period, Medieval Warm Period, or our current Modern Warm Period).

Our generation is the first generation to fuss about global warming because we evidently don't like experiencing high crop yields, more predictable rain patterns, and less deaths by plague like we're experiencing now and in all warm periods before ours. In prior warm periods people were smart enough to enjoy it. Our generation has the cult-like "enlightenment" movement telling us to hate the good life in many ways, including global warming.
