Climate change has shifted the axis of the Earth, study shows
Rising global temperatures caused by humans are to blame for shifts in the Earth's magnetic field, a new study claims. Chinese researchers reveal melting glaciers from climate change caused shifts in the Earth's mass in the mid-1990s. This change in mass caused the movement of the magnetic poles to turn and accelerate eastward, they say. Earth's magnetic north and south poles are constantly moving – a phenomenon known as 'polar wandering' – unlike the geographic north and south poles, which stay in a fixed position. Shifts in the geographic location of Earth’s North and Sout...
