Is John Lennons greatest lyric, "don t let me down" or "imagine"?
60 years ago the earth's population was about 3 billion people.
Now there are about 7 1/2 billion people.
So, does that mean the earth weighs about 450 billion pounds more than it did 60 years ago?
More importantly, will all that extra weight adversely affect the path of our planet's orbit around the sun?

Nope.

It's a closed system, (sealed room), so the weight is static.
However, gotta wonder. What if the entire population of the planet flew to Australia for a session of synchronize jumping? Would we wobble?
And what if we moved all of our rockets and missiles to the equator and buried them with the thrusters facing east.
Then fired them all together, could we slow the rotation by a smidge?
Call it the "longer days project".
Did you know the earth spins slightly faster when it's winter in the northern hemisphere ?
It's because the trees drop their leaves and therefore all that weight comes a few meters closer to the earth's center. It's like a pirouetting figure skater who pulls in his arms and speeds up spinning ( and most forest is concentrated on the northern hemisphere)

I thought my equilibrium was off more so in the darker months!!!
I had attributed it to staying inside more, and smoking more hash!!
Now let us ponder even more important matters like, since the resin in marijuana is what gets us high and it vaporizes at such a low temperature, is there really any sense trying to smoke a bowl until all it's contents have turned to ash?
Or, is the heat from the sun combined with the greenhouse effect, going to result in the cosmos essentially vaporizing the THC in my weed and hash, and not even leave me a 'thank you' card?
That'd suck!!
Well the good news, if one could call it that, is that if it ever got that hot you (being that humans are mostly water) would vaporize first. So you wouldn't be around to care about much less read a thank you card
temperature at which water vaporizes - 212 degrees F / 100 degrees C
temperature at which marijuana resin vaporizes - 314.6 to 428 degrees F / 157 and 220 degrees C
Note: The range is due to the fact that not all cannabinoids vaporize at the same temperature.
