The Effects of Climate Change on Earth's Rotation
Human Influence and Greenhouse Gas Emissions
- Climate change is slowing down Earth's rotation and making days longer.
- Human activities, including the release of greenhouse gases, contribute to this phenomenon.
This gradual shift in the planet's rotation is comparable to the gravitational tug-of-war between the Earth and the Moon. As a results, days are getting longer over time.
