Is there a correlation between global disasters and the hand of God?

Jenny Sanders suggests that even though we’d like to blame God for environmental uproar, many are the direct or indirect result of human folly.

Natural disasters are in the news again.  Remember the floods at Dubai airport, or Queensland, Australia? How about in Spain, Burundi, Kenya, Tanzania, Afghanistan, China and India? Are they increasing or are we just accessing more news that we used to?

Severe droughts in Southern Africa mean 40-80% of the staple corn crop has been wiped out in Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Millions will suffer. A report form the Dutch think tank Clingendael estimates: ‘around 2.5 million people in Sudan could die from hunger by September 2024.’ The Global Report on Food Crises says that in 2023 almost 282 million people across 59 countries and territories were subject to ‘acute hunger’ – a whopping 24million increase from 2022.
