I watch on TV the other day, that our south and north poles are weakening OMG. It has a huge hole near south america and that planes cant even pass there neither satellite cause it damage many satellite before and for the planes people are at rise of radiation if ever the plane was to cover over there and also interfere with the equipment.
It's scary to thing of what our planet will become in the next thousand years, they also say that Earth could possibly become a planet like Mars. It's so scary and sadd to think about.

Did you mean the thinning of ozone layer near the North and South pole? Because the ozone is protecting the Earth from Sun and other space ray radiation. So, when the radiation is high and this will endanger the aircraft that fly pass the North or South Pole. Right now, the top most concern is no longer ozone layer thinning, but is the global warming issue. The green house gas is causing the global temperature continue to rise, and this will cause the sea level increase in altitude. Besides, the storms and typhoons are getting more frequent and violent.

Alright. I will try to search for it later. According to what you said, seems like it's getting serious. I couldn't imagine how dangerous it is, to pass through an area of high radiation. It must be scary! Hope they are going to do something about it! Thanks for explaining in further detail.

I think misunderstood what you said earlier. I managed to find something about the polar magnetic weakening phenomena. It might be the early signs of polar magnetic swap (north become south, and vice versa). According to the article as well, the Earth magnetic field is caused by the turbulence within the melted larva with iron as the major contents. But I do not quite understand the impact brought along by such planetary phenomena. Hope it the impact will not bring catastrophic change to the Earth.
