Another Take on Climate Change, Part V

[Update: Part VI, more on geomagnetic reversals]

He pointed to the Laschamp event, and suggests this: that the wandering of the North Pole heralds a impending magnetic reversal, such as happened 4000 years ago evidenced in the French Massif Central near Clermont Ferrand.
