Here comes the propaganda from the Left once again on Climate…. with no actual science behind them, only fake computer models that are ALWAYS wrong…. here we go… According to them…
A startling revelation from a recent study has thrown the scientific community (Leftists who are desperate for grant money from the government) into a whirl: the melting of polar ice caps is slowing down Earth’s rotation, elongating our days at an unprecedented pace. Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, this groundbreaking research unveils how water from Greenland and Antarctica is drifting towards the equator, acting like a figure skater stretching out her arms to decelerate her spin. This mass redistribution increases Earth’s inertia, causing it to rotate more slowly.
Earth isn’t the perfect sphere we imagine. It’s an “oblate spheroid,” bulging at the equator, constantly morphing due to the tug of daily tides, the slow creep of tectonic plates, and the violent lurch of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

The researchers employed cutting-edge techniques like Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), which measures the time it takes for radio signals from space to hit various points on Earth. This method, combined with the ultra-precise Global Positioning System (GPS) and ancient eclipse records dating back millennia, allowed scientists to track Earth’s rotational variations down to the hundredth of a millisecond. Otherwise known as garbage in, garbage out…. like Google’s AI… you remember their racist photos of George Washington? Well…
As Earth’s spin slows, the length of our days increases incrementally. Historically, the Moon’s gravitational pull has been the primary culprit, using tidal friction to gradually drag on Earth’s rotation by 2.40 milliseconds per century over millions of years. But here’s the kicker: the new study reveals that if humans keep pumping out greenhouse gases at the current rate, climate change will have a greater impact on Earth’s rotation than the Moon by the end of the 21st century.
A study out Monday shows that the melting of the polar ice caps is causing our planet to spin more slowly, increasing the length of days at an “unprecedented” rate.

Since 1900, climate change has already added about 0.8 milliseconds to each day. In a worst-case scenario, with high emissions, this could balloon to 2.2 milliseconds by 2100. It might seem minuscule, but in the realm of space navigation, it’s monumental. Precision in knowing Earth’s exact orientation is crucial when communicating with distant spacecraft, such as the Voyager probes, now journeying beyond our solar system. Even a tiny error can lead to vast discrepancies over astronomical distances.
This shift has profound implications. The precise orientation of Earth is critical for space missions. A slight miscalculation can send spacecraft millions of kilometers off course. The interplay between Earth’s changing rotation and our technological advancements in space exploration creates a complex ballet, where every millisecond counts.
Taking all of this in, and now the facts – THERE IS NO ICE CAP ISSUE. It only happens EVERY SUMMER. WOW- melting ice in the summer. Who would have thought? And then, like a miracle, it all comes back. Notice how the sea level does not rise more than it has risen by itself for the last 20,000 years. It is all a scam, plain and simple. Next year, same exact BS articles, over and over by the Left, as they are paid for this nonsense. And remember, scientists are bought just as easily as actors. They are desperate for money and all you do is give them some and they can write a fake computer model that literally says anything they want, and does,
Major Points
- Melting polar ice caps are decelerating Earth’s rotation, lengthening days.
- Water from Greenland and Antarctica shifts mass to the equator, increasing Earth’s inertia.
- Techniques like VLBI, GPS, and ancient eclipse records help measure Earth’s rotation.
- Climate change’s effect on Earth’s rotation could surpass the Moon’s tidal friction by the end of the 21st century.
- These changes hold significant implications for space navigation and Earth’s precise orientation.
