Hotter temperatures during the summer months cause more deaths, and survivors tend to give birth to children that are more resistant to heat.

This data would be the best evidence to support the claim that natural selection is still occurring in human populations, as it shows a direct link between environmental pressures (hotter temperatures) and the traits being passed on to the next generation (resistance to heat). This is a classic example of natural selection in action.
