Quick Glance: Melting Ice Slows Earth's Rotation, Affecting Time
- A new study reveals that ice loss due to climate change has slightly slowed the Earth's rotation and could impact time measurement.

- Melting polar ice has counteracted the trend, postponing any decision on a negative leap second by three years.
