Is your car tilting the planet?

"...Yes, your car, and your toaster and television, too, if your electrical utility includes coal- or gas-fired power plants in its portfolio, are contributing to a shift in the Earth's axis by changing the distribution of water in the oceans. This according to a new paper in Geophysical Research Lettersin press)."

the good news: the tilt is only 1.5 cm per year.

blame global warming...
