Scientists Have Puzzled Over the Drifting North Magnetic Pole for Years – Now, Some Answers
Unlike our geographic north pole, which is in a fixed location, magnetic north wanders. This has been known since it was first measured in 1831, and subsequently mapped drifting slowly from the Canadian Arctic towards Siberia. However, since the 1990s, this drift has turned into more of a sprint – going from its historic wandering of 0–15 km a year to its present speed of 50–60 km a year.
The real cause of climate change.
So are we about to have a flip soon. What is this 10 times faster rate anyway? If you look at the graph for climate over the last 400,000 years, you will notice a sharp drop around 75k years ago. That was caused by the great Toba volcanic eruption which left a crater about 18 miles wide and 65 miles long and created a nuclear winter that may have seriously shrunk the human population. I wonder how much harm a reversal would do?
