Homo sapiens, industrialisation and the environmental mismatch hypothesis

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 580-601, April 2026.
ABSTRACT For the vast majority of the evolutionary history of Homo sapiens, a range of natural environments defined the parameters within which selection shaped human biology. Although human‐induced alterations to the terrestrial biosphere have been evident for over 10,000 years, the pace and scale of change has accelerated dramatically since the onset
