For all the #EvolutionaryTheory and #TheoreticalEcology folks who don't have fancy study species to share photos of, we unveil the #Theory #Moose.

Yup, fully lovin' this essay on #socialmedia verification through the lens of #anthropology & #evolutionarytheory

Do we need a New Theory of #Evolution?
(The Guardian)Strange as it sounds, scientists still do not know the answers to some of the most basic questions about how life on Earth evolved. Take eyes, for instance. Where do they come from, exactly? The usual explanation of how we got these stupendously complex organs rests upon the theory of natural selection.
A new wave of scientists argues that mainstream #EvolutionaryTheory needs an urgent overhaul.

Religion is not the factor that most influences rejection of evolutionary theory in schools, study says
When the researchers analyzed the results, they concluded that nationality was more relevant than religion to acceptance of theories on common ancestry and natural selection....

The rejection of #evolutionarytheory has moral implications in relation to our response to #climatechange. When persons refuse to understand how #evolution works, they fail to comprehend the profound impact of warmer average temperatures on #ecosystems that have evolved over time to flourish in a relatively stable #climate. With climate changing as rapidly as it is now, it will be extremely difficult for many forms of life to make the evolutionary adjustments to survive, much less thrive.
