OK, so take an ice block that weighs 1 unit.
Let it Melt.
Still weighs 1 unit.
Tell me how that affects rotation again?
How does a ball 'spin faster' with ice at the ends?
How does a ball 'spin slower' if it is not frozen at the ends?
In any case, the Earth has had periods of NO ice at the poles, when humans were not even there, making nasty car fumes. Explain that.
Furthermore, the literature suggest that CO2 has nothing to do with it - that it follows the temperature rather than driving it. This may explain why ((they)) are trying to find a different reason for the ice melting, but the spinning of the Earth is new one.
Pull the other one, it has bells on it.
P.S. Just to prove that the CO2 nonsense is well and truly over:
Interestingly, ice core records suggest that the ssNa responded in phase with Antarctic air temperature, leading CO2 concentrations by around 500 years over the last glacial cycle (Bauska et al., 2021) Given that Antarctic air temperature led CO2 concentrations during the last deglaciation (Marcott et al., 2014), one could infer that sea-ice change also led CO2 increase. If the phasing can be verified, it would suggest that Antarctic sea ice exerted a strong control on atmospheric CO2 concentration changes through its role on global ocean circulation (Gildor and Tziperman, 2000; Ferrari et al., 2014; Marzocchi and Jansen, 2019; Stein et al., 2020).
