Climate crisis is making days longer, study finds
Briefly

The climate crisis caused by humanity's actions is lengthening the Earth's day through the melting of polar ice, affecting vital systems like internet traffic, financial transactions, and GPS navigation.
The redistribution of water from the melting polar ice sheets is making the Earth more oblate, slowing its rotation and altering the planet's axis of rotation, showcasing the significant impact of human activities on the Earth system.
Human activity, particularly carbon emissions, has altered the Earth's movements in space and rotation in just a few centuries, contrasting with natural processes that have shaped the planet over billions of years.
