Sub section: What if we lost our Moon?

The Earth is like a giant plate on a performers pole. The slower the spin, the more extreme the wobble becomes on the Earth. This leads to more extreme tilt on the polar axis causing extreme weather conditions. It is likely humans of this day and age will survive this event with the help of technology. However, the planet's ecological system will not evolve fast enough because of the drastic change in weather. Earth would experience extremely hot summers and sub-arctic winters. This will cause shortages in resources and there will be limited amount of food worldwide. Fortunately, these events will not occur in our lifetime and won't in the next hundred years. Therefore, the moon and its ability is what keeps our Earth balanced.
