Abstract
In the landmark book On The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection published in 1859,<br>Charles Darwin wrote “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one<br>most responsive to change.” Change is universal in the natural environment. It occurs at all scales and nothing<br>is immune. Examples range from global atmospheric temperature to crust composition and weathering rates.<br>All of these have changed through geologic time.
