Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. as possible, until they are just another theory of evolution to be discovered by another Darwin. However, I also believe that we shouldn’t be focusing on all the negatives that happen.

According to scientists stretched across our globe, that is one of the definitions of Evolution. However, I don’t believe that everything can be wrapped up in a bow and given such a pretty label and perfect definition, because right now our society is representing Evolution. Change.

Evolution shouldn’t be something that happened millions of years ago. It can just be the little things, like choosing a coffee over tea one time, or something bigger like changing the way organ donation works to give people a better quality of life.

Or becoming the most accepting and adaptable generation in history.

This year has definitely changed my perspective on people’s ability to change. I think when a large occurrence happens, we are able to see how many small-minded people are left behind, who refuse to adapt and change and if I am being honest a lot of people have made me doubt the human ability to grow.

I know that some people will never change their opinions, there may always be someone that believes that the colour of someone’s skin defines a person or who has an opinion on who people should love. My idea of change for them is that that group of smallminded people decreases as quickly For over a year now, we have been forced into one of the strangest forms of adaptability. But from this we learnt that being in the confinements of our homes can encourage us to open our minds. Humans are adaptable creatures and millions of us have embraced the tiny things we have learned from this, whether that be a new hobby or a completely new way of life. From small to big, we have learnt to adapt and transpose for the better; watching our carbon emissions decrease and our nurses become soldiers, this year has been an inspiration, to us all, and the confirmation that even in the worst situations, we see heroes arise and people adapt their lives, no matter how uprooted, and work with what they have been given.

So to me, the theory of evolution isn’t something we can label, to me evolution is all around us, change happens everyday whether we experience it or not, microscopic things that impact our world and its path. With the smallest things changing the course of our lives and allowing us to feed into new perspectives. That to me is the theory of evolution.
