Cow patties.
I’m waiting for someone to declare climate change will cause the earth’s magnetic poles to flip.
Two articles on the study from the LAAP-dog media, one from NBC and one from CBS.
NBC News: Melting polar ice is slowing the Earth's rotation, with possible consequences for timekeeping
Excerpt:
A study published Wednesday found that the melting of polar ice — an accelerating trend driven primarily by human-caused climate change — has caused the Earth to spin less quickly than it would otherwise.
CBS News: U.S. Earth is spinning faster than it used to. Clocks might have to skip a second to keep up.
Excerpt:
For the first time in history, world timekeepers may have to consider subtracting a second from our clocks in a few years because the planet is rotating a tad faster than it used to. Clocks may have to skip a second — called a "negative leap second" — around 2029, a study in the journal Nature said Wednesday.
That's global warming for you...

And still, only 6.77 years left, give or take a minute.
CBS and NBC had better get together on their bullshit, the CBS article just above this one said that the Earth s spinning “FASTER” and we would have to adjust our clocks!
And here I always figured these asshats had better communications.
