The Climate, Environment and Energy Thread

[kruddler]

Fascinating subject that doesnt get much air time, the magnetic field created by earth gives us protection and any shift or weakening opens us up to a lot of different problems.
Plenty of attention to what is going on above ground and in the atmosphere but not to much media about the inner core and liquid outer core and effects from volcanoes, lava flows, polar vortexes, and of course will the poles reverse some time again?

From my understanding its not a matter of IF they will reverse again, but when.

As for how that would effect us? AFAIK, it would essentially leave the world without power instantly.

I'm sure people are working on what to do when this happens, but i reckon we are all screwed when it does.
