Let's launch all nukes at one place and make 30 February a real thing.

Probably would knock us onto an unstable orbit so you can either have lots more days or just a couple of years

Not if we will launch at specyfic time and specyfic location to match Earth's velocity vector. Launching it when Earth is in the apohelium will make the orbit perfect circle with 366 days orbital period. This will solve the leap day and probably climate change. I'm just thinking about using the nukes to speed up the Earth, not destroying in the process.

Good thinking but won't it just delay climate change for future generations to deal with?

If future generations will stop producing greenhouse gases Earth will be a little colder than it's now
