Climate change is causing Earth's rotation to slow down by melting ice from Greenland and Antarctica, redistributing water mass closer to the equator, leading to longer days.
Even though the change in day length is measured in milliseconds, it can impact critical systems like financial transactions, GPS, and the power grid, highlighting the profound impact of climate change on technology.
The Earth's rotation is influenced by various factors such as the moon's pull, the Earth's core movement, and the rebounding of the Earth's crust after the ice age, making the length of a day fluctuate daily.
