Have you felt the wobble?
NASA have announced that the huge weight of ice that's melted in Greenland has caused measurable changes to the earth's wobble and North Pole (polar motion), with the North Pole now heading towards England. |

Since 2003, Greenland has lost on average more than 272 trillion kilograms of ice a year, and that affects the way the Earth wobbles in a manner similar to a figure skater lifting one leg while spinning, said Nasa scientist Eirk Ivins, the study’s co-author. |

"What are the ramifications?"
Destabilise the earth tilt and make Earth have seasons which last year's, like in game of Thrones?
That or nothing.
But it would be cool to have dragons. |

Well thanks for the heads up . I for one will be keeping a close eye on this with my home made seismograph....which consists of two large rasberry jellys sat on top of my telly . If they start wobbling for no apparent reason ...I'm off down the air raid shelter !  |
