Are there any denominations that have commented upon the significance of climate change in regard to these prophecies which point to Christ's return?

This question takes as an example the following news report of recent global events, linked to the Bible verses quoted below about the end of the end-times (not an exhaustive list, but all taken from the book of the Revelation, A.V.): "[The 11 countries hit by wildfires this summer including holiday hotspots, Greece, France and Spain](https://www.itv.com/news/2023-07-26/the-nine-countries-hit-by-wildfires-this-summer-including-top-holiday-hotspots) " > **Revelation 8:5-13** *(the 7th seal, with 3 woes to follow)* “And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast > it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and > lightnings, and an earthquake… the first angel sounded and there > followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the > earth: and the third part of the trees were burnt up, and all green > grass was burnt up. And the second angel sounded, and as it were a > great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third > part of the sea became blood; and the third part of the creatures > which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the > ships were destroyed. [Then it speaks of a third part of the rivers > and fountains of water becoming bitter, many people dying. Next…] And > the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, > and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as > the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third > part of it, and the night likewise.” > **Revelation 9:18-21** *(the 2nd woe)* “By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the > brimstone, which issued out of their mouths…” > **Revelation 16:8-9** *(part of the 7 last plagues - the 4th vial. The 7th vial includes great hailstones.)* “And the fourth angel poured out > his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with > fire. And men were scorched with great heat…” > **Revelation 6:12-17** *(which is at the very end, when Christ returns in wrath, so not yet)* "when he had opened the sixth seal, and lo, > there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of > hair, and the moon became as blood…” *Please note that I am **not** looking for denominational interpretations of all those Bible texts.* I just give them as an example – there are many other texts that could be included. I just want to be pointed to **any links or articles any denominations may have come out with, indicating that they see a connection between global climate conditions (and the direction they seem to be going in) and such Bible texts**.
