In recent years there has been a growing awareness of the complex interaction between the development of life on Earth, the sea levels that allow marine platforms to be populated by organisms around the continents, a habitable climate and Plate Tectonics. This interaction is so decisive that modern theories do not conceive the development of life, towards the highly complex levels it has acquired, without the existence of tectonics. Through four chapters, this book deals with different cases where the close relationship between Plate Tectonics, life and climate throughout the history of the Earth can be analyzed. The analysis of these topics is aimed at teachers, students and the general public. The objective is that these contents should serve as another tool to help in the conservation of resources and preservation of natural environments in the face of the current tensions that exist between the global economy and ecosystems.
