  Going to stick some science into the discussion.... The Earth's rotation is being slowed through tidal interactions with the Moon.  If the Moon had never existed the Earth would be spinning much faster. In fact, our day would probably only be about 6 hours long. The fast rotation rate would lead to faster winds and stronger storms. The fast rotation speed would also have implications for plant photosynthesis, and animal hunting and sleeping cycles.  We might get hit more often by asteroids, as the Moon probably takes some that would otherwise hit us, so that might have meant that life couldn't have developed as it has today.

    yes quite right the earth is slowing down, kinda shits on the whole "time is moving faster" fairytale doesnt it.  every 100 years it is about 2 seconds, so really not something to worry about, the sun will burn away the atmosphere here way before this effect would cause any issues for the little humans.
