I have given the world of science several pieces of evidence. My first piece of evidence was actually what found in the first place, and that is how the continents all fit together like a puzzle piece. For an example, the east coast of South America fits snugly into the west coast of Africa. Another piece of evidence was from fossils that have been found collectively around the world, such as how the Lystrosaurus has fossils in South America and Africa, and the Mesosaurus has fossils in Africa, Madagascar, India, and even in Antarctica. The last piece of evidence that should have convinced the scientific world of Pangaea is how plants that grow in tropical climates have been found in Antarctica (fossilized of course). But my theory has been rejected because I can't seem to figure out how the continents moved. Very frustrating. But in any case, I need to go to Greenland to monitor Arctic climate for twelve months, and when I get back maybe I can find a reason for why the continents move
