    It has nothing to do with the earth's orbit. And extracting oil isn't causing greenhouse warming; that's due to burning it.

    each and every of the previous solutions, besides the actual undeniable actuality that staggering, forget the actual undeniable actuality that weight is the rigidity felt of mass below the impact of gravity. the superb wording of this question must be "...has the mass of the Earth replaced". Weight is an arbitrary length, depending upon the mass and the community gravity. a persons' mass may be one thousand newtons (the metric length of weight) in the international and one hundred seventy newtons on the moon. the load has replaced even regardless of the actuality that the mass continues to be consistent.
