Climate Change Lengthening Earth's Days, Study Finds. Recent studies highlight a surprising link between climate change and Earth's rotation, revealing that melting polar ice caps are reshaping our planet in unexpected ways. As sea levels rise, water shifts towards the equator, causing the Earth to become "fatter" and its rotation to slow down. This phenomenon not only elongates our days by milliseconds but also poses challenges for precise timekeeping and space navigation. With implications far beyond mere time, these findings underscore the profound impact of climate change on our planet's fundamental processes as emphasized by the authors of the study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
