@Allegheny posted:The world has gone through several horrific climate changes all on its own without man's intervention in the past. As we speak, the poles of the planet are moving getting ready to flip. When it does (1-10,000 years from now) who or what will the media blame it on? By the way its happened before. So its normal.
The magnetic poles are about ready to reverse as they do every 500,000 years or so, so what is currently magnetic north will become magnetic south and what is currently magnetic south will become magnetic north. The moon stabilizes Earth's rotation so our planet does not tumble as it moves in its orbit, so the physical poles themselves will remain put. It is not known how slow or quick the magnetic pole reversal will take place, but the reversal is quite fast on geologic time scales.
