Climate Change Makes Biblical Plagues a More Regular Threat to Farmers

A swarm of locusts that covers the land and the skies, devours crops, and leaves cattle without grass for grazing is a plague worthy of the Bible. In Argentina, where farmers have reported locust clouds “four miles long and nearly two miles high,” according to the New York Times, the threat is all too real.

The country is facing the worst infestation of locusts in 60 years and most believe there is no stopping the swarm at this point, only a possibility of lessening its effects….

While Argentina is facing a very clear and present danger, there’s a looming threat of a swarm for other countries too—a threat that may be growing. “Locust are becoming even more dangerous in the context of exceptional weather events associated to climate change,” according to the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, which notes that the high incidence of drought in the 21st century has also worsened the impact of locusts in Africa…

See? It’s horrible! Locusts! And it will get worse because of ‘climate change’! It’s the worst in 60 years…wait, this happened before? Remember 1874, “The year of the locust“? Or when the skies turned black in 1875? The ancient Egyptians had carvings of locust infestations. China has had them as far back as 311AD, and had a big problem in the 9th century. India has had them, prior to the Modern Warm Period. Swarms of locusts are nothing new for Mother Nature, but, this time, Warmists simply have to link it to anthropogenic climate change. Nor is this the first time they’ve tried to make the link. Of course, they say that the swarms in the past were from natural warming, while this time it is because of mankind’s “carbon pollution.”
