according to scientists, the earth could suffer from a 'Pole-Shift' within the next few years. This is where the Poles (North & South Poles) will shift. This means that a place like New York could become the new North Pole, and a place like Alaska could be on the equator. Unlikely? It's happened before. If you look at ancient rock you'll see how the continents where once in different places.
There's evidence that such a thing could happen soon, the continents are moving slowly...
In fact, at one point much of England was under the ocean!
Sounds fun? No. If this did happen there would be Armageddon. Massive Earthquakes would occur...Volcanoes would explode, and they would be HUGE, and very, very big Tsunamis would happen, causing widespread flooding, and then this water would freeze at the new North and South Poles, where ever this may be.
Much like that film, The Day After Tomorrow.
But, don't worry, these Pole Shifts take millions of years to occur. So it's not like they'll happen in our lifetime, or our children, or our children's children etc...
