The Beginning of the Four Seasons

Genesis 8:22 - While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

Prior to the Flood there was no rain (Genesis 2:5-6) and probably a shroud of water vapor surrounding the earth (note at 7:11), filtering sunlight.  After the Flood we have the four seasons now familiar to us.  Further, we have a promise that this climate system will endure until the earth is destroyed.  Environmentalism must be viewed with this promise in mind.
