What Global Risks?

[iaaems]

I read something recently that indicated that the Earths magnetic structure was slowly changing and that this seemingly would affect the Western World sooner than elsewhere. As we all live in a sea of magnetic energy and our 'modern' lives simply depend upon it I would see this as a Global Risk albeit one that develops slowly giving 'us' time to plan ahead if at all possible.
I will try to find the source of this info and post a link if I can.

With regard to my previous utterance - I read this item on the European Space Agency website, it comes under the heading Swarm which refers to some research being done through a trio of satellites specifically to measure the earths magnetic field. There are some educational videos there as well if I remember correctly.
