The poles ARE going to flip...our civilization WILL END SUDDENLY...so WHY DOES ANYTHING MATTER?

This person does a very good job explaining the situation, the evidence behind it.

There is a saying (a not exact quote):

"In the future, you might have to travel several miles to see another person. When you meet that person, you will treasure them."

The Polar Reversal

The actual polar reversal occurs in one day. There is a complex series of events that will happen on that day. I will start with what happens to the Sun.



What Happens on and in the Sun

The collapsing magnetic field deep inside the Sun will create a large spike of energy that will cause the matter and dust shell on the surface, to expand very rapidly. This event we would call a stellar nova. I estimate the speed of the dust shell to approach 1,550 miles per second. My best estimate for the energy output during the nova is no less than 2,000 times the normal energy output. The equatorial region of the Sun will blow outward along the planetary plane, hitting each planet as the dust shell expands rapidly. As the hot dust/matter shell hits each successive planet, it will push the planets a little further away from the Sun. After the nova the planets will receive a little less energy from the Sun. The planets also lose some of their atmosphere and surface liquids. Eventually, the dust/matter shell will lose enough momentum and stall out somewhere past Neptune. This is called the Kuiper belt.

After the Sun’s matter shell has been expelled, it will give off mostly ultraviolet light but not that much radiant heat. The Sun will remain that way until the matter shell can form around it again, and that may take a number of sunspot cycles.



The Rotation of the Earth

At the exact time of the polar reversal the Earth will stop its rotation and remain still for seven to eight hours. The forests and buildings on the Sun-side of the Earth will combust if the plants are not flooded by the ocean or nearby lake. Not only will heat affect plants and animals, but the Sun will produce a massive dose of cosmic and gamma rays, which will reach the Earth within 10 to 15 minutes after the reversal. This cosmic particle pulse may last 10 to 30 seconds with the potential to alter the genes/DNA of both plants and animals, including humans. Now you know what creates new species based on older species.

DOOM

This has happened before and it will happen again.

Volcanoes, EQs and all kinds of havoc.

It may not flip just yet.

Dust on the sun gonna blow out. Right.
