Wars, Conflict and Violence

Paul and Jesus gave us quite a few signs to watch for so that we could discern the season we are in....but according to scientists the rise in violent acts, conflict and war is the result of....wait for it....CLIMATE CHANGE!

Shifts in climate are strongly linked to increases in violence around the world, a study suggests.

US scientists found that even small changes in temperature or rainfall correlated with a rise in assaults, rapes and murders, as well as group conflicts and war.

The team says with the current projected levels of climate change, the world is likely to become a more violent place.
