Imbalance

One things that's always nagged away at the back of my mind, is whether what man physically does to this planet in terms of moving weight from one point to another affects us/the climate/anything else.

Take for example this hole in Siberia. There's no two ways about it. This is a bloody big hole. And all the stuff that's come out of it has been put somewhere else. Now I know the earth's a big place, but eventually the weight distribution of the planet will alter - not just because of this one hole, but all the oil, gas, coal, stone etc etc that we're constantly digging up and moving to other places.

Does anyone else worry about this? No, I thought not.

Hmmm, maybe we'll all wake up dizzy one day when the planet starts spinning off into the distant universe because it's come off it's gimbles......
