This climate change is different:Because of its speed. Previous climate changes took many thousands of years, this has taken 200 years.Because it is being caused by human activity, deforestation and burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Yes, over millions of years, Earth's rotation is gradually slowing down due to tidal forces caused by the Moon. This means that the length of a day will increase, leading to longer Earth years. However, this process occurs very slowly, and any significant changes in the length of a year are not expected for millions of years.
Over millions of years, the Earth has undergone significant changes, including the movement of continents (plate tectonics), changes in climate, the evolution and extinction of various species, and the shaping of landscapes by processes like erosion and volcanic activity. These changes have resulted in the diverse and dynamic planet we see today.
Global climate change refers to long-term changes in the Earth's climate system, including temperature, precipitation patterns, and sea level rise. Permafrost, on the other hand, refers to a layer of soil or rock that remains frozen for at least two consecutive years. Global climate change can lead to the thawing of permafrost, which can release stored carbon and methane into the atmosphere, exacerbating climate change.
True. The formation of Pangaea, a supercontinent that existed around 300 million years ago, caused significant climate changes on Earth. The shifting of landmasses and changes in ocean currents resulted in altered patterns of rainfall and temperature distribution, affecting global climate patterns.
Climate change has caused mass extinctions of species throughout geologic time, dating back millions of years. The earth goes through cyclic temp changes constantly, and species adapt, evolve, or simply die out. The current period of "climate change" has not been severe enough yet to cause any major fauna extinctions as of this time, and chances are good that it may not, as the warming claims may have been exaggerated.
Flowering plants are called angiosperms and overtime as climate changes plants must adapt and change to the environment. So over millions of years plants will look different.

About 65 million years ago a giant asteroid hit the Earth in today's Mexico. It caused many climate changes, which killed the dinosaurs.
Erosion after millions of years have caused the jagged edges to smooth out.
