What evidence of climate change on continents supports the theory of continental drift?

Glacial evidence in South Africa supports continental drift because the region is too warm today for glaciers to form there. This suggests South Africa was once in a colder location, and its later movement to a warmer climate fits the idea that continents drift over time. Similar animal fossils on different continents support drift too, but they are evidence about the distribution of life, not climate.
