The last point in our series on evidence for evolution is actually quite simple. It is the age of the Earth. We know, having studied our planet and space, that the Earth is approximately four and a half billion years old. Life has been around for about 3500 million years. This information begs the question – how could life not have changed in that time? There is no way that all life would have remained stagnant and exactly the same for all that time. Having gone from volcanoes and lava covering the Earth, through to forests covering the world to different environments in different places (but at the same time) – how could nothing have changed?
And now I release you, my little scientists, to go and educate the world about the evidence for evolution. And for the little genius out there reading this that finds the evidence to make it a law – you win the Nobel Prize. Congratulations.
