The shift in earth’s axis is happening quite some time, now it is making to headlines as it is causing quite disruptions in magnetic field at Atlantic-ocean. Until recently many of scientist’s don’t know the reason for such phenomenon themselves. So, 4 countries mainly China, Denmark, Germany and America came of with a team of expert in various areas of geology and physics. These experts took 20 years in 90’s to study this shift and causes.

They found that this shift is happening due to movements of water mass around the world. Yes, just like water displacement in glass causes shift in weight of the glass; Earth’s axis is shifting accordingly to water mass movements.

You may wonder how is it related to climate change? Well, water displacement is happening because of glaciers melting and rapid usage of ground water across large number countries. This shift may occur naturally at very gradual rate but due to human activities we are indirectly increasing the rate at which this shift is taking place.

With this, keep in mind climate change effects in long run are devastating ones which makes future more and more bleak if we don’t take appropriate actions.
