Climate change is making days longer, according to new research

Climate change is making days longer, as the melting of glaciers and polar ice sheets causes water to move closer to the equator, fattening the planet and slowing its rotation, according to a recent study.Research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences used both observations and reconstructions to track variations of mass at Earth's surface since 1900.In the 20th century, researchers found that between 0.

'We can see our impact as humans on the whole Earth system, not just locally, like the rise in temperature, but really fundamentally, altering how it moves in space and rotates,' Benedikt Soja of ETH Zurich in Switzerland told Britain's Guardian newspaper. 'Due to our carbon emissions, we have done this in just 100 or 200 years, whereas the governing processes previously had been going on for billions of years. And that is striking.
