The full paper (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.pnas.org&#x2F;content&#x2F;early&#x2F;2017&#x2F;01&#x2F;01&#x2F;1606034114.full.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.pnas.org&#x2F;content&#x2F;early&#x2F;2017&#x2F;01&#x2F;01&#x2F;1606034114.full...</a>) is an interesting read. This study shows that evolutionary adaption to urbanization is significant and observable.

Interesting study, but I hate the way they&#x27;ve framed it as if this is &#x27;new&#x27; information. Of course urbanisation affects living things; you are literally changing the ground beneath their feet, the air they breath etc. Did people not expect adaptable organisms to.. adapt?
