The impact of a Pole Shift is unclear- mainly because it is a subject and topic poorly researched by science until now.
  
  Secondly, because it is a subject area frequently inhabited by doomsday merchants that consider such an event must by definition be catastrophic.
 
  In spite of the limited information, a process for Pole Shift can be defined as well as its impact.
  
  Primary principle- minimum disruption
  
  Before outlining what is considered the most credible scenario for Pole Shift it is absolutely vital to emphasize that all changes initiated by the Earth are by assumption for its benefit- not for its destruction.
  
  While a human being has the capability of willing its own end, the planet Earth in its history exhibits an immense sensitivity to its own survival as does our solar system. Therefore, to consider a Pole Shift is somehow an extinction level event is the height of ignorance and insult to the conscious living force of the Earth.
  
  Instead, everything points to a cycle that is meticulous and well timed, designed to minimize disruption, to sustain future life, not destroy it.
  
  Step 1- Steady release of CO2 warming up the Earth surface
  
  500 to 600 years
  
  The first thing the Earth needs to do before a pole shift happens is stop the currents- even for a few hours. The currents lock in the crust to its position relative to the inner layers of the planet.
 
  The way the Earth accomplishes this event is to eventually melt the ice caps and neutralize the currents, before inducing an mini ice age to quickly re-build the ice caps in their new positions.
  
  If the oceans release too much CO2 too quickly it can overheat the Earth and the mechanism overshoots itself and re-balances through a short ice age. If it releases it too slow, then temperatures will not rise sufficiently to complete the melt.
  
  Step 2- Melt of static ice caps  
  6 to 12 years  
  The melting of the ice caps is an increasable short time period, mainly because the freshwater of the ice is a vital counterweight associated with the oceans and the increase in moisture leads to much greater weather activity.
  
  If the ice melt is done over too long a period, then again the Earth can miss its mark. If it happens too fast, it can cause catastrophic super cell storms that defeat the purpose.
  
  Now in the this lead up step, there will be much more rain and storms and increase sea levels that will cause more than anything massive flooding.
  
  Unfortunately, because so many people live in lower lying areas, the next few years is going to see major social shifts of populations from low lying areas to higher areas.
  
  Step 3-Currents stop  
  Less than one day  
  Once the key ice reserves have melted the effect will be to stop the major ocean currents on a critical day of change. In complete opposite to the doomsday scenario, there should be no reported storms on such a day- a day of no weather.
  
  This is because the Earth needs to stop weather, not make it worse in order to release the lock mechanism to move the crust. The risk of this even being extended for more than one day is that a lack of currents means a weakening of the upper atmosphere of the Earth.
  
  Extended for more than two days would see dramatic damage to our atmosphere as the Earth currents fail to balance. So all indications is that this second final step will occur extremely quickly on a “perfect day”.
  
  Step 4-Crust shifts  
  A few hours  
  The crust shift is probably one of the most controversial elements. In the imagination of doomsday merchants any kind of movement in the Earth crust is supposed to be associated with catastrophic earthquakes and massive volcanic action.
  
  Again the problem with this concept is that such activity actually defeats the purpose of a Pole shift which is designed to make the re-adjustment as smooth as possible, not to damage the crust or cause greater friction between the layers of the Earth.
  
  Instead, the shift should be virtually imperceptible, with no major earthquakes, possibly some volcanic activity but nothing catastrophic.
  
  Step 5- Oceans release remaining CO2  
  Several weeks  
  As the currents stop, this will be a trigger mechanism for the oceans to release their remaining CO2 reserves. This will flood the atmosphere helping protecting the Earth from dangerous rays and thickening the atmosphere causing a rapid cooling.
  
  The cooling will cause the moisture in the atmosphere to re-deposit and start rebuilding the ice caps and glaciers. It will also fuel pretty significant storms as the Earth starts a rapid cooling cycle.
  
  During this period, people exposed to major shore lines and climates now changed may experience worsening conditions not unlike what has been witnessed over the past twenty years
  
  Step 6- Mini-Ice age
  
  50 to 100 years  
  In order to stabilize the new position of the poles, the Earth needs some time to re-set. The Ice age, while significant in the most north and south regions will last for between fifty and one hundred years.
  
  Step 7-System restabilized  
  6,000 to 8,000 years  
  After the ice age, the system of the Earth will be re-set along with the new prospect of new lands for agriculture, deserts being fertile and new prospect of life.
