Humans have pumped so much water out of the ground that the Earth has tilted on its axis by 80 centimetres to the east in ...

Earth has therefore tilted it on its axis at a rate of about 1.7 inches (4.3 centimetres) a year, giving a total of 78.5 ...

Scientists found that the Earth tilted 31.5 inches over the last two decades. The tilt was caused by excessive groundwater ...

This massive extraction has contributed to a sea level rise of about 0.24 inches and altered the distribution of Earth's mass ...
