Plate Tectonics
the Continental Drift Theory is the slow movement of the Earths continents. A.K.A the continents drift
the movement and formation of the plates or continents is caused by conduction under the crust.

The theory for the movement of the continents is called "continental drift." It was developed by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th century and later evolved into the theory of plate tectonics.

It is not so much the climate, but it is the tectonic plates movement, and fossils of extincted animals on different continents that support this theory. Also, fossils support the theory of evolution that was proven by Charles Darwin.
Wegener's theory that the continents slowly moved over Earth's surface became known as the theory of continental drift.
Yes, the Earth's continents have shifted over millions of years due to plate tectonics. This movement has resulted in the formation of supercontinents, such as Pangaea, which eventually broke apart to form the continents we see today.
