Given the current debate over global warming and the many possible short-term consequences for humans, can you visualize how the world might look in 10,000 years or even 1 million years from now? Use what you have learned about plate tectonics and the direction and rate of movement of plates, as well as how plate movement and global warming will affect ocean currents, weather patterns, weathering rates, and other factors, to make your prediction. Do you think such short-term changes can be extrapolated to long-term trends in trying to predict what Earth will be like using a geologic time perspective?
