What would happen if the Earth's rotation was highly increased?

And would it change Earth's orbit?

 

Nope

Nothing. When you are in a car you don't really notice how fast you are going. Same goes for the planet. However a sudden increase/decrease in the earth's rotation would probably kill a lot of humanity. Like if the car was in a car crash.

 

If it were exceptionally large we would have shorter or non-existent night which could affect animals and the planets natural magnetic field. Ridiculously large rotation might blow the atmosphere off.
