Earth’s Rotation Speeding Up: Melting Ice to Make Time Disappear in New Study
Researchers in San Diego, California have found that global warming is affecting the Earth’s rotation. According to a recent study, melting polar ice caused by human activities is slowing down the Earth’s rotation, leading to potential changes in timekeeping systems. This phenomenon could result in the subtraction of a second from global clocks for the first time in history. The study, published in the journal Nature, highlights the significant impact of melting ice on the …
