Our earth has evolved dramatically since its beginning with unimaginable changes occurring every day. But despite these overwhelming changes, humans have largely managed to survive for centuries through continuously adapting as well as discovering new technology. Despite having to survive natural disasters, such as hurricanes and earthquakes, and threats from other countries, we have always come out on top.
Earth is our home. Without it there would be no life on earth. It provides us with the oxygen we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink. But just how do humans affect Earth? Due to human activity such as deforestation, pollution, overfishing and climate change have all had a significant impact on Earth's ecosystems and in more recent times becoming an increasing threat to humankind itself. Through this article you will explore these changes and their implications for the future of our planet.
Over the course of the article you will be introduced to concepts such as natural selection, evolution and even climate change. The piece also provides a brief account of specific species, including humans, which have lived alongside other creatures over time with many of these species now extinct. Through this article you will be able to explore our planet through it's history right up until the present day.
