European Space Agency: Global Warming Is Causing a Loss of Gravity on Earth
Everyone give up your diets. You're gonna lost weight no matter what.
Hell, you might not even be able to stick to the ground anymore.
From Slate:
Gravity—yes, gravity—is the latest victim of climate change in Antarctica. That’s the stunning conclusion announced Friday by the European Space Agency.
“The loss of ice from West Antarctica between 2009 and 2012 caused a dip in the gravity field over the region,” writes the ESA, whose GOCE satellite measured the change.
Apparently, melting billions of tons of ice year after year has implications that would make even Isaac Newton blanch.
Here’s the data visualized. It reminds me of those first images of the ozone hole, decades ago. To be fair, the change in gravity is very small. It’s not like you’ll float off into outer space on your next vacation to the Antarctic Peninsula. The biggest implication is the new measurements confirm global warming is changing the Antarctic in fundamental ways.
Earlier this year, a separate team of scientists announced that major West Antarctic glaciers have begun an “unstoppable” “collapse,” committing global sea levels to a rise of several meters over the next few hundred years.

A Belief In Man-made Climate Change Is A 'fundamentalist Religion'
So says Prof Ian Plimer, climate change sceptic. In my view his arguments against CO2 being the cause of global warming are the most convincing so far. 1. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has no effect on climate above 50 parts per...

Global Warming And Its Effect !!
Global warming is the term which define the cumulative effect of Green House Gases. Main GHG are Methane and Carbon dioxide. These gases, they built up at lower atmosphere of earth and traps the sun's heat. It not only increases the earth surface...
