I honestly believe it is the complete opposite. Technology-wise we are advancing but as a species I feel as if we have come to a stop. There is nothing to adapt to. Everything is done to shelter us. There's no need to develop a resistance to certain diseases - we are all vaccinated anyway. Due to globalisation I believe there is no need for us to evolve. In our earlier form we migrated to all corners of the Earth and adapted to those environments. For example, Scandinavians are typically light in colouring due to the lack of sun. Now people from all races are mixing and living in other parts of the world, which are essentially the same as the rest unless you live somewhere in the middle of the Amazon and have never even seen a lighter before.
Completely agree. There's no real isolated environments anymore. Yes, there may be a few minor changes that people have mentioned such as smaller brains and resistances but there won't be any closed environments for people to have to adapt to.
Are we still evolving?
