Humans have been identified as the culprits behind a startling shift in Earth's axis by almost 31.5 inches (nearly 80cm), a recent study reveals. Climate change researchers uncovered this alarming ...

Glacial melting due to global warming is likely the cause of a shift in the movement of the poles that occurred in the 1990s. The locations of the North and South poles aren’t static, unchanging spots ...

A new study has revealed an unexpected consequence of human activity: the Earth’s tilt has shifted 31.5 inches (0.8 metres) in less than two decades. The cause? Groundwater pumping on a massive scale.

In an eye-opening study, researchers have discovered that human activities, particularly groundwater pumping, are causing a significant shift in Earth's physical orientation. The findings, now making ...

Between 1993 and 2010, the tilt of the Earth shifted by 31.5 inches, corresponding with people’s worldwide withdrawals of underground water. Researchers published the findings in June in the journal ...
