Man incapable of changing outcome of ever-shifting landmasses

1/2004: "No one knows what will happen in the future; but it is clear that Britain within the Eurasian plate is still moving northwards, at about 0.8 cm per year.

• Palaeographers are sure that this movement will continue for at least the next
  
• 50 million years, moving north and east towards the North Pole.

• Prof. Christopher Scotese has gone further, and predicts that in 250 million years Britain will lie where Siberia is now....

We now have indications to suggest that at least three supercontinents like Pangea have existed at different times in the Earth's distant past,

• each of which broke up and rejoined.
  
• Whatever we do to our atmosphere and climate,

even Man is unable to affect this 'dance of the continents', and can only to speculate - although we will not be around long enough to witness the accuracy of any of the predictions."
