Now we’ve done it! We’re tipping over!...................

BS to the n’th degree.

[Secret Agent Man]

Try 3 gorges and their whole south-north water diversion. The 3 gorges actully messed with the earth’ rotation.

“...contributing to a sea-level rise.”

Well, technically, if a snowflake hits the ocean, it contributed to sea-level rise. (Either type of snowflake, by the way.) The question is how much. I’m guessing this is something like .000001 mm.

[VTenigma]

Sure, OK.

[teeman8r]

why does the earth wobble?

umm... climate change?

or perhaps it is a sphere spinning in the vaccuous darkness of space...

or perhaps because Americans are obese... many things it could be...

[Skwor]

Utter Junk Science. From the plain language summary, tell me if you see the problem:

Melting of polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers has been understood as a main cause of sea level rise associated with contemporary climate warming. It has been proposed that an important anthropogenic contribution is sea level rise due to groundwater depletion resulting from irrigation. A climate model estimate for the period 1993–2010 gives total groundwater depletion of 2,150 GTon, equivalent to global sea level rise of 6.24 mm. However, direct observational evidence supporting this estimate has been lacking. In this study, we show that the model estimate of water redistribution from aquifers to the oceans would result in a drift of Earth's rotational pole, about 78.48 cm toward 64.16°E.

IOW, they are making it all up from models, no actual empirical data supports any of this.

Another reason to shut down farms. We should be willing to starve to save Mother Erf.

[butlerweave]

but the water is still here and when you pump it out doesn’t more flow in ,LOL

[ConservativeInPA]

It’s one BS article per day from this publication. Anyhoo, we better be careful and not tip over Guam.

[CIB-173RDABN]

I don’t believe this. Fake science to support the big lie.

[TomGuy]

Houston, I have found the problem:

Based on climate models,

Global tilting! We’re doomed!

[IC Ken]

They can’t make up their minds. Last year they stated it was from the weight of all the concrete China poured.

[JeanLM]

I question any model that deals in centimeters in relation to the whole overall dimensions of the earth. The precision of measurements of the earth from an observer on it can’t be that accurate.

Also in my miniscule portion of the earth, I have a well and a septic system, so what I extract goes right back where it came from. So my extraction if it’s part of the study should be eliminated. There are probably a lot of similar cases say in agriculture.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Besides the headline, another tip-off to the lunacy is the part where it says “based on climate models”.

Computer software Climate models have become the largest Fiasco of junk science in history. They have become nothing more than a tool of the climate cult.

Science is officially dead.

[SpaceBar]

I don’t believe this for a second. One calving iceberg the size of Manhattan Island redistributes orders of magnitude more water in one event than aquifer pumping could over centuries. Then there are submarine earthquakes, islands being born, millions of tons of silt pouring out of rivers constantly with or without humans around. Also, I noticed that this ‘study’ was written by Asians, with one white guy in Texas to make sure they spelled ‘global warming’ correctly.

[blackdog]

Question.....Where does water go?

Answer....right back into the aquifers and bodies of water it came from.

There is no such thing as wasting water. Sure you can exceed the capacity to process it, but it still is in the same closed loop.

Unless the Bidens have been selling it to aliens?

[gitmo]

It tilted to the left. That explains Pride Month and the transjunk.
