Abstract
The Zero Point Energy (ZPE) governs the physical properties of the vacuum, including the electric permittivity and magnetic permeability. Terrestrial and astronomical evidence suggest that the ZPE has increased over the lifetime of the universe. This increase has been shown to result in reduced electric current strengths and voltages, as well as slower electric and magnetic interactions. These results are also valid for living systems. When the situation is examined in detail for various biological systems, both floral and faunal, a possible explanation emerges which accounts for the giant plants and animal types found in the fossil record. This exploration suggests that, as the ZPE strength increased, and the properties of the vacuum altered, then many plants and animals became more diminutive as larger sizes could not be physiologically sustained.
