For nearly four billion years, life on Earth has found new ways to adapt,
reproduce and thrive, taking on new forms to meet the environment of the moment.
Human impact on the planet, and the potentially devastating threat of climate
change, have stressed that adaptability as never before. Yet life still finds a
way. Animals, plants and insects rise to the challenge and are still adapting,
