1.) similar fossils were found on different continents.
2.)the continents seemed to fit together; they were like a spread apart puzzle.
3.)geographical features and mountain ranges lined up with the same rock composition
4.)glacier grooves in rocks led him to trace them out to where they started

No Clean Water: We may live on a water planet, but 97.5% of that water is ocean and other undrinkable salt-filled sources. Only 2.5% of the water on this planet is fresh, and of that, 1% is either too polluted to be consumed or entirely unreachable. Much of it remains frozen in the form of polar ice caps. All told, less than 1% of the planet’s freshwater resources are available for consumption.
Lower Life Expectancy: Thanks to medical intervention, human beings can live to be up to 100 years old — as long as they live in developed countries where they have access to that medical care. One study, done by researchers at Harvard, found that the majority of population increases over the next 40 years or so will be in less developed countries.
Climate Change: We’ve been seeing the results of climate change firsthand in the dramatic weather patterns of 2017 — multiple category five hurricanes, dramatic wildfires and floods, and other atypical weather patterns that are threatening both lives and property.
Explanation:
Advantages :
1}These are the main source of power generation.
2}These projects control the floods because water can be stored in them. These projects have converted many, 'rivers of sorrows' into 'rivers of boon'.
3}These projects are the main source of irrigation and also help in conserving soil.
Disadvantages:
1}Dams also fragment rivers making it difficult for aquatic fauna to migrate for spawning, i.e, to produce eggs.
2}It resulted in the displacement of local communities.
3}The multipurpose projects induced earthquakes, caused waterborne diseases.
