Summarize how movements of tectonic plates have influenced climate and life on earth

Movement of plate tectonics causes a change in the ocean currents and in turn generates more heat. Shifting of these tectonic plates result in the creation of the volcanic eruptions increases the degree of carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulphur dioxide (SO2) in the atmosphere that also leads to a rise in the temperature levels. On the contrary, if the move is insignificant, the temperature levels record a fall. Conclusively plate tectonic movement result in a change in climate though the rate is slow.
