Preferred Abstract (Original): 
Sumatra earthquake (2004) and Japan earthquake (2011) shifted earth’s axis by (7cm) and (17cm) respectively (CNN, 2011) see Figure (1). This shift led to push the northern part of the earth – the part where most worlds' population lives- to the south. The northern part thus enters to the more vulnerable area in respect to the sun. Some of the measured results expected from such shift are the rise in temperature in northern areas, melting parts of the Arctic, the appearance of heat waves in Europe, increased drought in the Middle East and reducing the rainfall level in the head waters of the Nile. Since most of the earth's populations are threatened by such changes, trying to return the earth axis to its original position should be a matter of concern and one of the important ways to solve such a problem. This paper presents a theory of reason of occurrence of Sumatra and Japan earthquakes and different methodologies trying to solve such a problem. Adopting any methodology is a matter of concern for many countries in the world and thus needs a global cooperation. Three global plans to solve such a problem will be presented. Thus a need exists for a global law to be enforced on all countries based on the earth needs.
