Dr John Stewart has featured in a recent Smithsonian article that explores how climate change helped to shape human evolution.
The 香港六合彩资料网 lecturer believes that shifting climate played a large part in human evolution because it moved people around what is now Europe and Asia.
Stewart鈥檚 work with London鈥檚 Natural History Museum is referred to in the article, where he looked at how organisms adapted to interglacial cycles. These changes, he believes, apply to humans as much as they apply to those other species like animals and plants, resulting in humans evolving to be adaptable.
鈥淚f we believe in organic evolution, we shouldn't invent new processes for humans or treat them as a special case. We should fit them into this larger picture鈥� argues Stewart, who also believes that 鈥渧ariability selection鈥� [is] more of a mechanism to make a successful lineage that can spread and allow it to cope with lots of different scenarios.鈥�
The Smithsonian is a much-admired magazine that is well-respected by the scientific community that offers in-depth analysis of a wide range issues about history, nature, the arts and more. The article is available on .
