The Earth's pole is not about to flip. Claims of upcoming pole shifts circulate perpetually online, but there is no scientific evidence one is immanent. There is also no evidence that flips cause earthquakes, volcanos, tsunamis, etc. Fact-checks from geophysicists: https://www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/earth-magnetic-field https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/are-we-about-have-a-magnetic-reversal https://www.space.com/43173-earth-magnetic-field-flips-when.html https://www.sciencealert.com/is-earths-magnetic-field-on-the-verge-of-flipping-over-an-expert-explains https://www.astronomy.com/science/when-north-goes-south-is-earths-magnetic-field-flipping/
