Pole Shift v Climate Change

Climate Change Is Literally Causing Earth’s Poles To Shift
Scientists solve mystery of why the planet’s axis is tilting eastward.

The position of Earth’s axis has dramatically shifted, likely because of melting ice sheets (fueled by climate change) and natural changes in water storage on land, according to a new study in the journal Science Advances.

Erik Ivins, senior research scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and co-author of the study published on Friday, told The Huffington Post that the movement of water on Earth’s surface affects the planet’s distribution of mass — and its axis — much like adding weight to a spinning top.

“If you considered a spinning top, and then placed a piece of chewing gum on the top, it would start spinning around a new axis,” Ivins said in an email. “On the Earth, since water can be transported in and out of the oceans to the land — affecting global mean sea-levels — this also changes the moments of inertia, in exact analogy to the piece of chewing gum on a spinning top.”

The shifting axis might add to the effects of climate change on our stressed-out planet: Global temperatures are getting hotter. Weather events are becoming more extreme. Sea levels are rising.

There could be some truth in that Rog. We need more data.

Rogue, I don't believe climate change is just man made, I think we are being influenced by some powerful magnetic field force, however not new to this planet. I also think they are using this phenomenon to frighten people and use it to achieve what they have in mind. If the people knew the truth they would panic maybe somewhat, but they would begin to ponder a way out, which is our nature. I have no way of knowing what is true from what is just fear mongering, so I go by what I see and feel. I feel we have entered some change in the position of our solar system in our galaxy, also not new. They give us all these versions of possibilities and updates instead of telling us exactly what they know and where we stand,

Interesting Star. How will you know when you are told the truth?

[Kaere]

I find the idea quite intriguing.

[Rockhopper]

As do I Ka.

That's an interesting concept Star. Could be true too. Our Solar System is orbiting the centre of the Galaxy and we are in a different place there than we were 100,000 years ago.

That is a good question Rogue, I would say be at least consistent, build confidence and trust, other wise I don't know.

[Rogue]

Yes good answer Star, thanks. The truth is out there...
