ANTHROPOGENIC EVOLUTION.

This article explores the concept of anthropogenic evolution, which refers to the evolutionary changes in species caused by human activities. It discusses how alterations to the environment, such as increased carbon dioxide emissions and urbanization, can lead to mismatches between animals and their surroundings. These mismatches can affect animal behavior, genetics, and survival. The article provides examples of various animal species, including lizards, blackbirds, mice, parrots, mynas, and whales, to illustrate the impact of urbanization, artificial lighting, deforestation, and noise pollution on their lives. It emphasizes the importance of understanding and mitigating the consequences of human actions on the environment and the need for further research in this area. [Extracted from the article]
