I came up with a very different idea but it works for a lot of changes. Unsatisfication (is that even a word?) causes change. Ever heard of changing for better or for worse? If something isn't changing for better or worse then nothing changed. Using what Tor said "eating causes a change in your mass, walking causes a change in your location, and brushing your teeth causes a change in your oral hygiene" makes sense. For example if you are not satisfied with your location you move. If you're not satisfied with your oral hygiene you brush your teeth. Also going back to what Luke said about the evolution of birds studied in the Galapagos Islands, the birds were not satisfied with how they fit in with their endowment so they changed (OK so it's not quite that simple but you get the point). This idea also works for what Megan said about the electromagnetic force and "happy atoms". Since the atoms are unsatisfied with their valence shells not being complete they gain or share another electron from a different atom. Since they are not "happy" they change. This also works for what Madelyn said, "Change is caused....when one way of being, acting, or living....is not fulfilling the required needs of a person or group". This is similar to what I said about Luke's post. I still think I'm really off with my idea especially since it doesn't explain most (natural) changes, but it's just something to ponder.

Does Unsadisfaction things that aren't human? or more specifically things that aren't able to move? (like trees and rocks and stuff) Even if a tree is unsadisfied with the spot it's in it can't move or change it's surroundings like a human can. It's just a thought.
i agree with you for the most part especially since i dont even totally agree with myself, but i never ment to say it quite like that. trees dont ever change their position in the first place so theres no reason to consider that. i was talking about things that do change not things that dont change (in this case their position)
You're right, unsatisfaction causes the necessity or desire to change. That is fine. But where does that unsatisfaction come from? Doesn't it come from your habitat, your surroundings? Something changes, so you must adapt? You do have a good point though, that the unsatisfaction creates the need or want to change.
dissatisfaction people, dissatisfaction
Can non-living things be dissatisfied? Or can we prescribe a state of dissatisfaction on them based on their position, etc...?
I thought unsadifaction sounded wrong.
Wow! What a great answer, I never thought about it like that. I think that this causes change but is still not what causes causes change. Does that make sense? Probably not but yeah good job
