One example of a species that has undergone evolution in response to human-driven changes to its environment is the peppered moth (Biston betularia) in England. Prior to the Industrial Revolution, the peppered moth had a light-colored, speckled appearance that helped it blend in with the lichen-covered trees it lived on. However, as industrialization led to pollution and darkening of the trees, a genetic mutation occurred that caused some moths to have a darker coloration. This allowed them to blend in better with the darker trees and avoid predation by birds. Over time, the darker moths became more prevalent in industrial areas, while the lighter moths remained more common in rural areas. This is an example of natural selection and adaptation in response to human-driven changes to the environment.
