Climate Change is moving North pole

Hey Guys, We are back at our business once again. I hope you had a great Sunday. Sunday means fun-day for everyone, so we took a break from our blog to enjoy.

Now we are back with an interesting topic which can give us food for thought.

Earth being oblate in shape is divided into 3 parts basically 1)Equator, 2)North pole, 3) South pole. I am not penning down to teach you all geography, but our today’s topic is related to this “Climate Change is moving North pole”.

Global Warming melts ice of Earth. As ice melts & aquifers are drained, Earth’s distribution of mass is changing & with it the position of planet’s spin axis.

Earth’s northern pole is drifting rapidly eastward, & it looks like climate change is to blame.

The discovery may have measured implication for studies of ice loss & drought potentially improving our ability to predict such changes in future.

The North pole had shifted back & forth from East to West, with an overall trend that had it moving towards Canada. But since 2000, the pole’s typical drift as made a dramatic change. Since that time, the pole has been moving steadily eastward by about 75 degree, heading towards the prime meridian that runs through Greenwich England. This shift has been on the order of 10 cm a year.

What’s most exciting to the scientists is that they can now explain what’s actually causing the drift, and that may have significant ramification on climate science.

For at least a decade, scientists have suspected that the massive amounts of melting taking place in glaciers around the World could significantly redistribute mass on Earth.

If ice disappears from one part of the spinning Earth & resettles elsewhere as water, the planet shifts on its axis toward the place where it lost mass.

This does not end here or this is not the final conclusion because climate change is accelerating day by day and scientists are also doing their job. If we need to stop this catastrophe to happen, then we have to stop hurting our Mother Earth.
