How much do you wanna bet this becomes an excuse for why global warming DOESN'T happen. Somehow the millisecond shorter days will scientifically translate into just enough cooling to save the planet!

I thought when Algore stuck his head out of his hole, he saw his shadow which means 6 more weeks of Climate Change! Oh noes!

Who knows. He’s already got an easy out, IMO, because he’s been allowed to disappear.

may have changed the entire Earth’s rotation and shortened the length of days on our planet

or may not...

algore should reduce gravity after he moves the earth farther from the sun

“One Earth day is about 24 hours long. Over the course of a year, the length of a day normally changes gradually by one millisecond. It increases in the winter, when the Earth rotates more slowly, and decreases in the summer, Gross has said in the past.”

OK, maybe I’m missing something obvious, but when it’s winter in the northern hemisphere isn’t it summer in the southern, and visa versa? So how is the earth rotating more slowly in one hemisphere and faster in the other? Doesn’t the whole thing rotate at the same rate?

Or am I just being dense?

Which way will it be, less time to get energy from the sun leading to lower temperature, or, less time to radiate it away at night leading to higher temperatures?

“...shortened the length of days...”?

The length of days increases by one second about every six months due to tidal friction causing the slowing of the Earth’s rotation—an expected loss of energy.

A shortening of days would mean the Earth’s rotation sped up. Did a large mass get closer to the planet’s center of mass since it would take energy to simply speed a static planet’s rotation? Like an ice skater pulling in their arms to speed rotation? Must have been...

No way...If Algore were to use this as an “out” saying this earthquake will cause shorter days which will scientifically translate into just enough cooling to save the planet!

Algore won’t make any money off that...No, he’ll continue on and on aslong as there are idiots who BUY into his schemes....FOOLS!!!
