Its pretty simple if you've read about evolution stuff.
This is how I see it. But actually, evolution won't be apparent because evolution takes thousands of years so I don't really have an exact answer about this if we're talking about evolution on the current environment (Lesser trees, pollution every where)
This is my answer to that question:
The environment is the main reason why there is evolution. Living things evolve because they try hard to survive and thrive in the environment they're in. It's as simple as survival of the fittest. For example, in the desserts, cacti is very common, they're a kind of plant but as we all know plants needs water to survive, cacti also needs water only, it thrives with minimal water and dies if you feed it with water equivalent to how much water is needed to keep a tropical plant to survive. Which only means that the cactus family evolved into a tougher kind of plant compared to other plants.
