Pumping groundwater has caused the Earth's rotation to shift - study

Interesting what happens when science actually works, huh? Obviously more room for study, but the results would definitely throw a wrench into their plans...in a normal world.

[BenLurkin]

What would happen if everybody in Red China were to start jumping up and down in unison?

Wouldn’t this shift our seasons also? When I moved to the mountains of NC 42 years ago, my first killing frost was September 28th. Now I can garden through October.

So...Mother Earf is tipping over?

Jeez Louise...next thing you know, we’ll have gravity or something. Will Algore be selling anti-gravity credits?

[Paladin2]

Save da Erf!

Stop humans from using water. Net zero.

[I have water credits for sale.]

Six millimeters over 17 years? And the margin of error? Oh, they say “difficult”. Let’s see, the earth is 12,756 kilometers in diameter, that is 12,756,000,000 millimeters if I did my math correctly. So, 6 out of 12,756,000,000 is 0.0000000004703668861712. And that is shifting the orbit? And that is causing global climate hysteria?

So the problem is not as simple as “CO2 bad!”? As Thomas Sowell has said, (paraphrasing), the more we learn, the more we realize how little we know. I think Einstein made a similar observation.

[BradyLS]

Absurd on its face. A whopper of a lie.

[Bob434]

Oh great, now we only have 7 years left before the world tips over

[G Larry]

Maybe the Nuclear War Biden is dragging us into will change the climate?

[Bob434]

Cows all over the world would give out milkshakes

[tomkat]

Every time it rains, groundwater is replenished.

This is yet another scoop of watermelon bullshit.

A bigger problem exists when millions of people from South and Central America ‘shift’ their weight northward towards the U.S. and that’s added to when people from Africa and Asia and Europe decide to shift their weight towards the U.S/ too.

The planet will have a wobble caused by all the weight added to the continental U.S.

We’re all gonna die, because the added weight will cause the Earth to get close to the sun.

I’m not a scientist, but I play one on the internet; sorta like what the democrats do on a daily basis with ‘their science’.

[Bob434]

Just wait till they convert the findings to metric! Then it will really be yuge!

[katana]

I find it difficult to accept any "study" these days at anything like face value. The practice of science has been degraded through reliance on computer modeling as principal rather than secondary or tertiary tool. In this case, I have trouble believing a mass as great as this planet can be so affected by the transfer of ground waters at the very thinnest layer of its surface by our own (by comparison) less-than-microbial thin film of a species.

But that's just me.

[Reno89519]

And what about the water captured in the Three Gorges Dam? That and excess population, plus pollution, maybe makes China the greatest threat and contributor to harming the earth? Would this help get climate fanatics to refocus on China?

[Reno89519]

Deport people from the US to save the Earth! And put everyone on a diet to save the Earth?

[Jim W N]

I can’t tell from all of this - does this mean the earth is losing its tilt and becoming more upright?

The Bible gives reason to believe will lose its tilt soon. Maybe it’s already started.

[Big Giant Head]

(Carefully avoiding the subject of the mantle ejecting more molten lava towards the exterior of the planet, mostly through the oceans, causing a slowdown of the planet’s rotation and a magnet north movement....)

Wow, mankind should just die off then to save the planet. Damn. Been a nice place to visit. Gotta go.
