You can find all such information in primary school books. Change is the order of time; thus, everything is constantly evolving. Similarly, the world is also changing, both developing and deteriorating simultaneously. Researchers, scientists, and explorers observe such shifts and changes closely to build information and reports. However, you can also have a peek at what is happening around you or what significant transitions have occurred via Google Earth Tool.
